First-year Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a chance on Thursday night to surpass a mark set by a quarterback who spent his entire career in Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n
With 116 yards against the Bengals on Thursday night, Rodgers will leapfrog Ben Roethlisberger into fifth place on the all-time passing yardage list.<\/p>\n
Roethlisberger retired with 64,088 yards. Rodgers currently has 63,973.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s likely the highest Rodgers will climb \u2014 unless he plays another two years. At No. 4 is Brett Favre, with 71,838. Rodgers is currently 7,895 behind his former Green Bay teammate.<\/p>\n
Tom Brady has the all-time record with 89,214, nearly 9,000 more than Drew Brees at No. 2. That\u2019s more than 50 miles of passing yards.<\/p>\n
A win on Thursday night will push the Steelers to 5-1. Which will strengthen their grip on the AFC North and position them to perhaps win a playoff game for the first time since the 2016 season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"First-year Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a chance on Thursday night to surpass a mark set by a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":228130,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-228129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=228129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228129\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/228130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=228129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=228129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=228129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
