I watched the Steelers vs Jets game in the background while doing something else. But Aaron was looking pretty damn good and bailed out the Steelers poor defense. Plus, Aaron was keeping the offense going as the Steelers rushing attack was lacking.
If you ask me it looks like Aaron gonna have to put up 4tds every game....and we know he keeps turnovers low so he would more than likely win MVP.
"Aaron Rodgers is set for an MVP-caliber swan song
Rodgers recorded just one, four-touchdown game during his two years with the Jets. It took him just one game to achieve that feat with the Steelers.
Rodgers looked like his old self in his first game with the Steelers. Sure, the 41-year-old was significantly less mobile than he was at his peak, which led to him being sacked four times. Still, he was accurate throughout the game and managed to keep Pittsburgh's offense on-schedule while completing 22 of 30 passes for 244 yards and four touchdowns.
Can Rodgers continue to play like this? That will be the big test for the veteran. Nonetheless, his high-qualify performance came against what many expect to be a solid Jets defense, and Rodgers seems to be meshing well with his new offensive coordinator, Arthur Smith.
That could be enough to help Rodgers once again emerge as an MVP candidate, especially if he can catapult the Steelers into NFC North contention. His lack of mobility will make it hard for him to catch the likes of Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes in such a race, but the Steelers will settle for having an above-average quarterback after years of mediocrity at the position."
Aaron Rodgers, Daniel Jones and Justin Fields all showed promise in Week 1 while Russell Wilson and the Lions did not.
