Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had a quality performance against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1. Rodgers 24-40 for 221 yards and a touchdown stat line doesn't necessarily tell the entire story, as Rodgers was consistently let down by his receivers in the contest.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Rodgers' Week 1 arm talent and confidence in downfield passing despite modest stats.

Rodgers completed 24-of-40 passes for 221 yards and one touchdown against Atlanta in Week 1. Despite the modest stat line, Rodgers showed arm talent and expressed confidence in the passing game's ability to improve downfield. He cited multiple uncalled pass interference penalties on receivers (including two on DK Metcalf and one on Roman) that could have significantly altered the game narrative, suggesting the offense's underlying performance was stronger than the box score indicates.
