Get ready for a thrilling NFL showdown as Aaron Rodgers, the Steelers' rookie quarterback, is about to make history! A single game could see him surpass a legendary quarterback's record.
Aaron Rodgers needs just 116 passing yards to leapfrog Ben Roethlisberger, a quarterback who dedicated his entire career to the Pittsburgh Steelers, on the all-time passing yardage list. With a strong performance against the Bengals on Thursday night, Rodgers will climb to fifth place, leaving Roethlisberger behind with his 64,088 yards.
But here's where it gets controversial: Will Rodgers continue his journey up the ranks? Currently, he's 7,895 yards behind Brett Favre, who holds the fourth position with an impressive 71,838 yards. To reach the top, Rodgers might need to play for another two seasons. And this is the part most people miss: the all-time record is held by none other than Tom Brady, with a staggering 89,214 passing yards - that's nearly 9,000 more than Drew Brees, who sits at number two.
A win on Thursday night isn't just about personal records for Rodgers; it's a team effort that could propel the Steelers to a 5-1 record. This would solidify their position in the AFC North and potentially lead them to their first playoff game win since 2016. So, will Rodgers make history and lead his team to victory? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure: this Thursday night game is a must-watch!
