Aaron Rodgers Frustrated by Steelers Loss, Credits Loud Packers Fans for Silent Count

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers faced his former team, the Packers, on Sunday night, experiencing an unusual challenge at home. Thousands of Packers fans traveled to Pittsburgh, generating so much noise that Rodgers was forced to use a silent count at the line of scrimmage, a rare occurrence for a home game. Rodgers acknowledged the strong fan presence, stating, "Packers fans travel really well," and adding, "First time in a while I used silent count for a home game. That's a credit to those Packer fans." He also heard the familiar "Go Pack Go" chant, noting he'd "heard that chant for 18 years." Ultimately, Rodgers expressed disappointment over the Steelers' 35-25 loss, admitting, "Disappointed that I didn't play better. That we didn't play better."
