Rodgers showed gunslinger form with career highs in time to throw and air yards per target.

After a 2025 season where Rodgers often reverted to dink-and-dunk passing, he looked more like a gunslinger against the Falcons, extending plays and pushing the ball deep with several 'wow' throws. According to Next Gen Stats, Rodgers set highs or near-highs for his Steelers career in time to throw and air yards per target on Sunday, with his passing map showing access to every area of the field—a marked improvement from Justin Fields' 2024 performance against Atlanta where he avoided the middle of the field.
