More Banjo: vs. Panthers Aftermath Week 7

- QB Aaron Rodgers posted his sixth consecutive zero-interception game, tying Bart Starr’s franchise record (min. 15 attempts a game) set in 1964.

Looks like Starr really had nineconsecutive pick-free games (minimum 15 attempts) that year. They're treating #10 (five attempts, no picks) as if it ended the streak. But it shouldn't. It should not be counted at all, just as if he hadn't played. This isn't a consecutive games played streak, it's a games-without-picks streak. NB: The 15 minimum seems a little arbitrary. Game #13 is a good illustration of why.

I agree. Better would be no INTs and a TD toss. Rodgers shines there as well. But you have to put something in the historic/record section of the Team Notes distributed to the reporters.
