Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers are off to a 2-1 start, but it has not been pretty.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' offense looked very good in their season-opening win over the New York Jets, with Aaron Rodgers throwing four touchdown passes in a vintage performance.

Over the last couple of weeks, however, the Steelers' offense has sputtered, and Bleacher Report's Brad Gagnon has revealed a big reason why: a lack of big plays from Rodgers.

"The Steelers are off to a fine start overall, but it's alarming that Aaron Rodgers has completed just four passes that have traveled 15-plus yards in three games," Gagnon wrote. "None of those throws resulted in gains of more than 25 yards, and the 41-year-old has a horrendous 50.7 passer rating on deep attempts. Rodgers is averaging a league-worst 2.0 air yards per pass attempt, which contributes to the Steelers averaging just 4.6 yards per play."

Rodgers has thrown for 586 yards, seven touchdowns and three interceptions while completing 65.1 percent of his passes and posting a 97.1 passer rating overall thus far in 2025. So, he certainly has not been bad, but he hasn't been fantastic, either.

Perhaps some of that is a result of the Steelers' shaky offensive line and the fact that the team does not really have many weapons outside of D.K. Metcalf, but there is no question that Rodgers has shown some obvious signs of wear and tear, which is to be expected from the 21-year veteran.

Pittsburgh also has not been able to get much of a run game going, ranking 31st in the league in rushing offense. That doesn't help, either.

Regardless, the Steelers have managed to get off to a 2-1 start, and had it not been for Kaleb Johnson's horrendous special teams blunder in Week 2, they may very well be sitting at 3-0 right now (although we can't take too much credit away from the Seattle Seahawks).

Plus, Pittsburgh is tied with the Cincinnati Bengals for first place in the AFC North, and based on how the Joe Burrow-less Bengals looked against the Minnesota Vikings last Sunday, it seems relatively safe to say that Cincinnati won't remain at the top of the standings for long.

The Steelers will face those very same Vikings in Ireland this Sunday.
