Aaron Rodgers took responsibility for his missed passes in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 25-10 Sunday Night Football defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers. The Steelers' offensive struggles under prime-time spotlight continued as Rodgers struggled at SoFi Stadium.
“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.”
The Steelers began the game with promising energy when Chris Boswell converted a 59-yard field goal, marking his 50th career field goal over 50 yards in 60 attempts. This early kick gave Pittsburgh a 3-0 lead in the first quarter.
Despite some bright moments, the offense couldn’t sustain success, leading to a challenging loss in prime time.
Summary: Aaron Rodgers openly accepted blame for his off-target throws in a tough Steelers loss, highlighting the need for improved offensive execution and better third-down connections.
