Aaron Rodgers’ Hall of Fame NFL career hit another milestone on Sunday: 300 career touchdown passes. The 300th was this hilariously boring shovel pass from Rodgers to running back Ty Montgomery, coming from all of one yard away from the Falcons’ end zone and making the score 34-23, Atlanta, in their Sunday Night Football game:

Rodgers is incredible. He’s the best gunslinger of his time, and he’s made so many wowing plays in his career that counting out a list of the best ones is really hard.
