Steelers’ new QB makes instant history with help from veteran star

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed Aaron Rodgers to win clutch games for them in a way Justin Fields or Russell Wilson could not. In the season opener against the Jets, Rodgers delivered a spectacular performance that few thought would happen.

His performance was nothing short of magical, but it helped that he could rely on a wizard of sorts to make some history in his debut game with the Steelers. Star kicker Chris Boswell helped out his new quarterback by nailing the go-ahead field goal from 60 yards out, a new career high for the Steelers stalwart.

With the dust now settled on an iconic performance, let's take a look at how it compares to some other memorable moments in Steelers history.
