STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Rodgers' 4.8 YPA and two fumbles in Week 2 loss signal continued decline at age 42.

Through two games, Rodgers has struggled significantly in Pittsburgh's offense, which ranks 30th in yards per game (249.5) and 30th in points (23 total). In Week 2's 20-3 loss to New England, Rodgers threw one interception, fumbled twice (one recovered for a scoop-and-score touchdown), was sacked four times and hit seven additional times, and averaged just 4.8 yards per attempt while frequently resorting to check downs and short passes. At 42 years old with a repaired Achilles tendon, he is not remotely close to the form that led him to four MVPs and a Super Bowl title with Green Bay.
