Yahoo Sports NFL on Aaron Rodgers

Rodgers' stat line masked elite play; 104 yards and a TD left on board due to drops.

Rodgers' Week 1 box score (24-of-40, 221 yards, 1 TD) understates his performance; the source notes at least one touchdown and 104 yards were left on the board due to receiver drops and miscues. Had those plays been caught, Rodgers would have posted 28-of-40, 325 yards with 2 TDs—a strong 27-point outing to begin his farewell season. Rodgers himself acknowledged explosive plays were available: 'We had a chance to be really, really explosive. We had a couple drops, couple off-targets, couple non-calls that looked like penalties.'
