Philip Rivers, Aaron Rodgers and Doug Flutie. Sports history can be really fun sometimes. This stat emerged after Rodgers had a 20-yard run for the Pittsburgh Steelers in Sunday night's narrow win over the Baltimore Ravens to get Pittsburgh the AFC North title and a playoff spot.
A veteran-laden group led the Pittsburgh Steelers to the AFC North title and a playoff berth, but at least one NFL insider doesn't see them going much further than that.
Veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been the focal point of Pittsburgh’s offense since his arrival. Through the regular season, Rodgers has thrown for 3,028 yards with a 65.1% completion rate and 23 touchdowns, which places him among the more efficient veterans in the league this year.
Pittsburgh did not get off to a great start. Baltimore took a 10-0 lead while the Steelers punted and turned the ball over on downs on their first two drives. On the Steelers' third drive of the game, Aaron Rodgers finally saw a man open downfield and promptly threw the ball over his head.
