GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Matthew Stafford took a chance -- and it resulted in his 200th career touchdown pass.
Stafford, 29, is sixth-fastest to 200 career regular-season passing touchdowns, accomplishing that in only 117 games. Only Dan Marino (89), Aaron Rodgers (99), Peyton Manning (106), Brett Favre (107) and Tom Brady (116) reached it faster than Stafford. Stafford is also the fourth player in NFL history to throw 200 touchdowns before the age of 30, joining Favre (218), Manning (244) and Marino (245).
