Cowherd sees echoes of an aging Favre in Rodgers’ Steelers performance

HITC

Pittsburgh lost to New England without scoring a touchdown; Aaron Rodgers was intercepted once and sacked four times. Colin Cowherd compared the 42-year-old’s performance to an aging Brett Favre and said Rodgers was handcuffing the Steelers’ offense.

Cowherd said Rodgers and Favre were prickly former Packers with elite arms whose later careers disappointed him after they joined the Jets. He said he defended Rodgers last season but now believes the quarterback is constraining Pittsburgh’s offense.

This is Rodgers’ final season before retirement, according to the article. He has thrown one touchdown through two games, and Pittsburgh’s next game is against Cincinnati on Sunday.
