Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers Owns Missed Throws in SNF Loss to Chargers
Aaron Rodgers took responsibility for his missed passes in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 25-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football at SoFi Stadium.
Rodgers' Struggles Under Prime-Time Lights
At nearly 42 years old, Rodgers completed 16 of 31 passes for 161 yards, with one touchdown, two interceptions, and a 50.6 passer rating — his lowest this season. His 51.6% completion percentage was his worst since 2020, and this passer rating ranks as the fifth-lowest of his career in a full game.
“A lot of stuff wasn’t working. I was just a little bit off, missed DK [Metcalf] early, could’ve been a big play. But yeah, we didn’t run the ball super effectively in the first half. I missed, obviously, some throws, for sure. And then we weren’t getting guys open and couldn’t put it all together. Times guys were open, I missed the throws that I usually make."
“Our defense played really well tonight. Offensively, we were pretty bad. So, we’ve got to find a way to get open on third down, I’ve got to find a way to hit ‘em, because that was just some bad ball.”
Game Highlights
