Behind the Steel Curtain on Aaron Rodgers

Rodgers went 6-for-8 on play-action for 65 yards; two incompletions left TDs on board.

Rodgers completed 6-of-8 play-action pass attempts for 65 yards in Week 1, despite the Steelers' inconsistent running game. The two incomplete passes were both instances where the Steelers left points on the board: one to Metcalf in the end zone where DPI wasn't called, and one on a bootleg to the left where Rodgers missed Jaylen Warren wide on a pass the running back would have walked in for a touchdown with a better ball. The source notes that McCarthy's offenses, especially with Rodgers at quarterback, have always skewed pass-heavy, and suggests the offense could be more dangerous if it incorporates more play-action and develops a threatening run game.
