Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers won the NFL MVP in 2011 and was on a short list to win the award again this season. But he stunk Sunday, Dec. 14. Stunk — and the Packers dropped a head-turner of an upset to the Buffalo Bills 21-13. How bad was Rodgers?

For the first time in his career, Rodgers didn't throw a touchdown and had two interceptions in a regular season game, according to the broadcast. Rodgers hadn't had a zero touchdown/two interception game since the 2010 NFC Championship, although Rodgers did run for a touchdown in that game. Another difference: The Packers won.

They lost Sunday for just the fourth time this season and first since Oct. 26 against the New Orleans Saints. That was also the last time Rodgers had been intercepted. The Packers clearly go where Rodgers takes them. There have only been four times that the All-Pro has failed to reach 200 passing yards in a game, and Green Bay has lost three of those games, according to ESPN.

Both of Rodgers's interceptions Sunday came in the second half, but it was his fumble in the fourth quarter that sealed the win for Buffalo. Mario Williams forced it when he got to Rodgers in the backfield.

Rodgers posted just 6.10 fantasy points, according to nfl.com, fourth from the bottom among quarterbacks this week. For just the second time this year, Rodgers failed to register double-digit fantasy points, and he hasn't had such a bad fantasy week since his rookie season in 2008.

As expected, Rodgers's tough game trickled down to the fantasy value of his teammates. Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelson combined for just 16.6 points, according to nfl.com.

So basically ... if Rodgers screwed you this week, you're not alone.
