As the Packers prepare to face the Denver Broncos in Week 4, THE NFL TODAY’s Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino sits down with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers to preview the game, talk about the explosion of offense this year and if his team can win back-to-back Super Bowl championships after last year’s win over Pittsburgh in Super Bowl XLV.  

 

After three years sitting behind Brett Favre, Rodgers has become one of the top players in the NFL.  So far this season he has thrown for over 300 yards-a-game with eight touchdowns and only one interception in leading the Packers to a 3-0 start.  Jeff St. Arromand is the producer.

 

James Brown hosts THE NFL TODAY along with analysts Marino, Boomer Esiason, Shannon Sharpe and Bill Cowher, NFL TODAY “General Manager” Charley Casserly, as well as Lesley Visser reporting.
