The Pittsburgh Steelers just pulled off a wild comeback win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in overtime, erasing a 16-3 deficit, and they did it with two certified legends absolutely going off.

Rodgers Joins the All-Time Greats Club

Aaron Rodgers, man, what a performance. He threw two touchdown passes in the fourth quarter and overtime, which is straight-up clutch. That’s his 255th game with a touchdown pass (regular season and postseason combined), and that puts him past Peyton Manning for fourth-most all-time! Think about that for a second. He is only behind Tom Brady (333), Brett Favre (271), and Drew Brees (268). That’s some serious company to be in, and it just shows you the kind of HOF-level stuff he is still doing.

Ramsey’s Defensive Masterclass

But let’s talk about Jalen Ramsey for a sec. This dude was an absolute monster out there! The All-Pro defensive back racked up 10 tackles, four tackles for loss, and two sacks in one game. Seriously, nobody in the league has put up numbers like that as a defensive back since 2000. He is the glue to that Steelers’ defense, showing up everywhere and making plays when it counted.

The Steelers are now sitting at a solid 4-2, and they are riding high after that incredible Week 6 win. Next up, they are shipping off to Paris to take on the 2-4 New Orleans Saints, who are coming off a win themselves against the New York Giants. Keeping this momentum going on the international stage is gonna be huge for their season.
