It’s no secret the Steelers offense has a lot they want to improve on after the first two weeks of the season.
Aaron Rodgers told us Wednesday that a lot of it comes down to what they do in practice, and he feels they had a good first step in that direction.
Rodgers told us emphatically he’s not worried about the resolve of his offense, even after their noticeable struggles — especially their lack of success on third down.

Much like Mike McCarthy, Rodgers highlighted that their focus is on converting those third downs — noting they have to execute.
Channel 11 Sports Director Jenna Harner asked the quarterback about what he saw after taking a closer look at the film.
“I hate the whole like we’re close or this or that,” Rodgers said. “I think the execution comes down to guys going out and doing their job and communicating. ... We had a lot of opportunities. A lot of times it was just 10 guys doing it right and one guy not doing it right. It was a lot to go around. I had my plays, everybody had their plays, and we’ve got to shore that up.”
This week will also be the biggest test yet for the Steelers’ defense as they welcome Joe Burrow and the Bengals’ high-flying offense to town.
