Aaron Rodgers just made some serious team history, throwing his third touchdown pass of the day to Pat Freiermuth for a 17-yard score, marking his third consecutive game with three or more touchdown passes. This isn’t just a great run, it’s a monumental one: Rodgers is now only the second quarterback in team history to accomplish this incredible feat, joining none other than legend Terry Bradshaw. And let’s be real, after Bradshaw’s comments about Rodgers’ signing last year, this has to sting a little.
Rodgers Silences a Legend, Rewrites the Record Books
Talk about a statement! Rodgers hadn’t hit a three-game streak with three or more touchdowns since his MVP season way back in 2021. But now, in 2026, he’s back at it, putting up numbers that echo the glory days. It’s a clear message to anyone who doubted the move in 2025. Terry Bradshaw, a long-time Fox studio analyst, famously called Rodgers’ signing “a joke” and suggested Rodgers should “go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper to the gods out there.” Well, I guess those gods are whispering back touchdowns, because Rodgers is showing he’s got plenty left in the tank. You can’t make this stuff up! The guy who publicly slammed him is now seeing his name tied to Rodgers in the team’s record books. What a turnaround, right?
Dominance on Display: TDs and Big Plays
Rodgers wasn’t just throwing a bunch of short passes, either. His day included an absolutely beautiful 80-yard bomb to running back Jaylen Warren in the first half, followed by a 1-yard score to Freiermuth. These plays kept the momentum rolling, and you could feel the energy building with every drive. As it stands, the team is pulling away with a 31-22 lead with 6:35 remaining. Rodgers’ stat line looks solid at 21-of-30 for 228 yards. And let’s not forget Jaylen Warren, who’s been a beast, racking up six receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown, plus another 84 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries on the ground. When your quarterback is in sync like this, throwing darts, and your running back is dual-threat dynamite, it’s just pure football.
What’s next for this squad? After seeing Rodgers put on this kind of show, shutting down the critics and etching his name in the team’s history alongside Bradshaw, you gotta believe the confidence is soaring. This kind of consistent, high-level play from your QB sets the tone for everything else. Keep an eye on what they do next, because with Rodgers playing like this, anything feels possible!
