Yahoo Sports NFL on Aaron Rodgers
From the article
His 13-25, 172 yards, and an interception stat line is easily one of the worst we will see this season from Rodgers. However, you never watched this game and thought Rodgers was playing poorly.
STACKED’s take
Rodgers' worst stat line of the season masked a clean, low-stress performance in a blowout win.
Rodgers posted a 13-25, 172 yards, one interception stat line in the Steelers' 27-6 win over Cleveland—one of his worst performances of the season. However, the game context mattered: with Pittsburgh running for 200 yards and leading by multiple possessions throughout, Rodgers faced low-stress conditions and stayed clean with only one sack. Jarrett Bailey noted that if DK Metcalf had held a ball that hit him in the chest, Rodgers' stat line would have looked better and he would not have an interception. Joey Bray emphasized that despite the poor stat line, Rodgers never appeared to be playing poorly and moved well in a game where the Steelers' dominant rushing attack and defense controlled the pace.
