Packers, Aaron Rodgers and Pittsburgh Steelers
Digest more
Aaron Rodgers is back. Sort of. Two years after he and the Green Bay Packers finally broke up, the star quarterback is up against his old team for the first time in his storied NFL career. Except he's got the home-field advantage wearing black and gold, with the Pittsburgh Steelers entering Sunday night's prime-time showdown as home underdogs.
A four-time MVP and Super Bowl champion, Rodgers' legendary, 18-year Packers run made him a future Hall of Famer. But, after an uninspiring and brief Jets tenure, the 41-year-old has more closely resembled his "green and gold" heyday in his first season in Pittsburgh.
After spending the first 18 years of his career in Green Bay, Aaron Rodgers will face his former team for the first time. Our Packers vs. Steelers expert predictions highlight a crucial trend regarding head coach Mike Tomlin.
The Steelers made some mistakes. Rodgers threw two interceptions in the first half, including a great one from Bengals cornerback D.J. Turner II in which he ripped the ball away from D.K. Metcalf when it looked like Metcalf had a catch. But still, the Steelers trailed just 20-17 when Pat Freiermuth caught Rodgers’ second touchdown of the night.

Those around the Steelers are still talking about the Bengals. This time, it's Ben Roethlisberger with a conspiracy theory.
