Steelers Now
PITTSBURGH — Opposing team fanbases rarely take over Acrisute Stadium, but that’s what happend on Sunday night as there was a sea of Green and Yellow in the stands. It seemed like the entire population of Green Bay was at Acrisure Stadium.
The Cheeseheads were out in full force to see their former quarterback Aaron Rodgers play. It was a disappointing night for the four-time MVP, however, as he failed to become one of five quarterbacks in NFL history to beat all 32 teams.
The 35-23 loss wasn’t all on him, though. He completed 24 of 36 passes for 219 yards with two touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 101.5. The biggest issue was the defense continuing to fall short of expectations.
At one point in the second half, Jordan Love completed 20 straight passes, tying a franchise record with Brett Favre (set in 2007). Love finishes 29 of 37 for 360 with three touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 134.2.
The Steelers had no answer for tight end Tucker Kraft. The big tight end out of South Dakota State recorded seven receptions for 143 yards (20.4 average) and two touchdowns.
Rodgers gave a shout out to Packers fans after Sunday night’s loss. The “Go Pack Go” chants were heard throughout Acrisure Stadium.
“I’ve heard that chant for 18 years. Packers fans travel really well,” Rodgers said. “First time in a while I used silent count for a home game. That’s a credit to those Packers fans.”
Overall, it was a lackadaisical night for the Black and Gold. Rodgers wished he and the Steelers could have played better.
“Disappointed that I didn’t play better,” Rodgers said. “That we didn’t play better.”
