Rodgers' 10.5 ADOT and 85.7 PFF grade signal strong downfield play despite modest box score.

Rodgers' Week 1 performance exceeded the 24-of-40 box score; he averaged over 10 yards per target and posted an ADOT of 10.5 after a 6.16 mark last season, demonstrating a significant increase in downfield aggression. PFF awarded him an 85.7 grade, first among all quarterbacks. Over 100 yards were left on the field due to drops, penalties, and a missed pass interference call. The source notes Rodgers looked largely comfortable and put pass-catchers in position to make plays, with the main concern being timing rust with receivers after limited preseason work.
