"The quarterback was visibly upbeat post-game, smiling as he reeled off the names of team-mates who played key roles in the result. Kenneth Gainwell, Connor Heyward, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Asante Samuel Jr and Adam Thielen all featured prominently as Pittsburgh put together one of their most complete offensive displays in years. "There's some castoffs if you look at our roster, which makes it really special," Rodgers said with a grin, adding that he doesn't consider himself a castoff."
"Rodgers produced his most accurate performance since 2014, completing 23 of 27 passes for 224 yards, an 85.2 per cent completion rate. He spread the ball around, finding eight different receivers as the Steelers scored touchdowns on four straight drives, something they had not managed since Week 2 of the 2018 season. Connor Heyward and Valdes-Scantling both reached the end zone. Heyward's score came just before half-time, with Pittsburgh opting for a short-yardage tush push on third-and-one to open their scoring."
