From the episode

He's on pace right now to throw 34 touchdowns this year. Now, that's his pace. He's still only averaging 6.4 yards per attempt. So I feel like that's kind of, those numbers are a little bit funny. I'm not sure if we're going to see that many touchdowns. But clearly, Rodgers and that offense are clicking at a pretty good rate.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Rodgers on pace for 34 TDs, but 6.4 Y/A suggests projection may be inflated.

Rodgers is on pace to throw 34 touchdowns this season; however, his 6.4 yards per attempt average suggests that touchdown pace may not materialize. The Packers offense is clicking at a good rate, though they weren't very good against the Bucs until the fourth quarter when they turned it on. Against the Saints defense, the Packers shouldn't need to do much to move the ball down the field.
