Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers seemed a little testy with the media on Sunday after the team’s 27-22 win over the Baltimore Ravens, which moved them back into first place in the AFC North.
Rodgers scored his first rushing touchdown since the end of the 2022 season while with the Green Bay Packers. He was 23 of 34 with 284 passing yards. He also had a touchdown pass.

He was asked after the game what the win meant, as noise about the Steelers’ playoff chances and Mike Tomlin’s future clouded the week heading into the crucial matchup.
“It means maybe you guys will shut up for a week,” he said.
Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf echoed Rodgers’ strong sentiments.
“We knew not to pay attention to any outside noise,” Metcalf said via ESPN. “Coach T is a great leader for us, and he’s done nothing but take the bullets for us. Even when we’re up and down, he’s always come in every day, been consistent and stayed the same, always motivated us to play our best game, and that’s what he did last week.

“We knew what was at stake: first place in this heated rivalry, and yes, the better team emerged victorious.”
Metcalf led the team with seven receptions for 148 yards. Jaylen Warren had three receptions for 49 yards and a touchdown.
Tomlin, whose future with the Steelers has been a hot topic of debate all week, was elated by the victory.
“Awesome team win,” Tomlin said. “I just appreciate the effort of the guys in that locker room. It’s classic Steelers vs. Ravens.”
