Overview
- A Pittsburgh win would make Rodgers the fifth quarterback to beat all 32 NFL teams, joining Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Brett Favre and Drew Brees.
- This is Rodgers’ first on-field meeting with Green Bay since departing in 2023 after 18 seasons as the Packers’ starter.
- Green Bay entered at 4-1-1 atop the NFC North and Pittsburgh at 4-2 leading the AFC North, with betting lines listing the Packers by roughly 2.5 to 3 points and an over/under near 45.5.
- Pressure up front is a key storyline, with Parsons entering Week 8 credited with 37 pressures and six sacks as T. J. Watt leads Pittsburgh’s counterpunch.
- Both quarterbacks downplayed any grudge, with Rodgers saying it is not a revenge game and Jordan Love describing friendly texts and pointers he has received.
