He says he feels \u201cpretty similar\u201d to the week before. He admits the leg hurts, and his mobility is limited. However, his gameday production hasn\u2019t been hampered, as he passed for 316 yards and three touchdowns Sunday in Green Bay\u2019s 26-21 divisional round win over the Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p>Seahawks coach Pete Carroll was skeptical about all the attention to Rodgers injury.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe only threw for 316, geez,\u201d Carroll said. \u201cThat&#8217;s a tremendous accomplishment. He&#8217;s been a great player for a long time, and the great players have a way of figuring it out, you know, and how to adapt and get it done and still play. That&#8217;s part of why they&#8217;re great, whatever it is, the resourcefulness, to figure out the situations. They adapted. He did fine.\u201d After the Dallas game, Rodgers said he is confident that he has a good 120 minutes left in him. On Wednesday he added the caution, \u201cI just hope we don\u2019t go into overtime.\u201d Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenewstribune.com\/2015\/01\/14\/3588502\/packers-fans-fret-over-aaron-rodgers.html#storylink=cpy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The News Tribune<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Donald Driver says Aaron Rodgers won&#8217;t shy away from Richard Sherman<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/video\/donald-driver-aaron-rodgers-wont-150002832.html?format=embed\" width=\"520\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>Rodgers is the NFL&#8217;s all-time career leader in passer rating during the regular season with a rating of 106 and second all-time in the postseason with a rating of 105.3 (among passers with at least 1,500 and 150 pass attempts, respectively). He currently is the only quarterback to have a career passer rating of over 100.0 in the regular season as well as having the best touchdown to interception ratio in NFL history at 3.96 touchdowns per interception. He also holds the league&#8217;s lowest career passing interception percentage for quarterbacks during the regular season at 1.6 percent and the single-season passer rating record of 122.5<\/p>\n<p>Sherman has more interceptions (24) and defended passes (61) than any other NFL player since entering the NFL, and many analysts consider him to be the league&#8217;s best cornerback. He is part of the &#8220;Legion of Boom,&#8221; a nickname given to the Seahawks&#8217; starting secondary which contributed to Seattle having the best pass defense in the NFL in 2013. This unit helped the Seahawks win their first Super Bowl in New York in February 2014; their 43-8 win over the Denver Broncos matched the third-largest margin of victory ever in the history of the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, the slate will be wiped clean and it will be a brand new ball game.
