Steelers Now
With Sunday night’s 35-25 loss to the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers failed to become one of five quarterbacks in NFL history to beat all 32 teams.
Rodgers could have joined Brett Favre, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees on the all-time list of QBs to beat all 32 NFL teams.
It was a disappointing night for the four-time MVP, but it wasn’t all on him. 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.

Excluding the kneel down at the end, the Packers scored on all five of their possessions in the second half. Green Bay had three straight touchdown drives to open the second half.
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 made it clear during his media availability on Wednesday that he has nothing but gratitude toward the Packers.
“I don’t have any animosity toward the organization,” Rodgers said ahead of Sunday night’s game against the Packers. “Obviously I wish that things had been better in our last year there, but I have a great relationship with a lot of people still in that organization. This is not a revenge game for me.”
Rodgers is a Steeler now, but someday he’ll retire as a Packer.
“I was there for 18 years,” Rodgers said to the Green Bay media on Thursday. “Regardless of when I hang it up, that’s the bulk of my career. I’ll retire a Packer and see what happens after that. I’ve got a lot of love for the organization and my time there. They asked this week is it a revenge game or whatever. What do I got to be avenging here? They made me a ton of money. I grew up there, spent some of the best years of my life there. I’ve got nothing but love for the organization.”
Rodgers gave a shout out to Packers fans after Sunday night’s loss. The “Go Pack Go” chants were heard throughout Acrisure Stadium.
“First time in a while I used silent count for a home game. … Packers fans travel really well,” Rodgers said.
