Steelers Reclaim AFC North Lead With Road Win Over Ravens as Rodgers Delivers

The road win briefly cools debate over Mike Tomlin’s job security following a week of public criticism.

Overview

  • Pittsburgh beat Baltimore 27-22 on the road to take a one-game lead in the AFC North with four games remaining.
  • Aaron Rodgers recorded a season-high 284 passing yards with multiple touchdowns and no interceptions in his best outing as a Steeler.
  • After the game, Rodgers told reporters, “It means maybe you guys will shut the hell up for a week.”
  • The victory followed fan chants of “Fire Tomlin” during a recent loss to Buffalo and renewed discussion of the coach’s future, a topic Rodgers has engaged given his close relationship with Tomlin.
  • Coverage pointed to next Monday’s matchup with the Dolphins as an opportunity to sustain momentum, with postseason success viewed as the ultimate barometer.
