Leading up to the Sunday Night Football matchup against the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has said time and time again that this isn’t a revenge game for him, that there’s no animosity towards the Packers, with whom he spent 18 years of his eventual Hall of Fame career.
Despite that, many don’t seem to take Rodgers at his word.
They never have, to be fair, but it seems heightened in the buildup to the showdown with the Packers.
For ESPN’s Mike Tannenbaum, a former NFL GM, he doesn’t believe a word of what Rodgers has said this week and thinks this matchup means a great deal to the four-time NFL MVP and future first-ballot Hall of Famer.
