Rodgers completed 24 of 36 passes for 270 yards, with two touchdowns and an interception, in Thursday's 27-23 win over the Lions. He added four carries for 27 yards and another touchdown.
Down 20-0 after more than 35 minutes of gameplay, Rodgers and the Packers finally turned it on in the second half, starting with a fumble recovery for touchdown by Randall Cobb at the end of a long reception by James Starks. Although the Packers had no running game whatsoever behind an injury-ravaged offensive line, Rodgers brought his team back with a highly efficient second half. It appeared the Lions would still hang on, but when a face-masking penalty gave the Packers one last chance, Rodgers connected with Richard Rodgers for a 61-yard hail mary at the buzzer. The impressive late rally doesn't by any means erase the Packers' myriad issues on offense, but owners will still want Rodgers in their lineups for Week 14 against the Cowboys.
