Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers got a little vintage on Monday night against the Miami Dolphins at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pa.

The future Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback got into a zone and led the way for a Pittsburgh 28-15 win over Tua Tagovailoa and company. Rodgers, who turned 42 years old on Dec. 2, went 23-of-27 for 224 passing yards and 2 touchdowns with 0 interceptions. He was sacked three times for a loss of 23 yards, but what truly stood out in his performance was his incredible efficiency. It was as though he was back with the Green Bay Packers.

Rodgers’ accuracy made him the oldest signal-caller ever in the history of the NFL to connect on at least 85% of his throws in a game, according to OptaSTATS.

Despite his age, Rodgers can still deliver a gem, and the Dolphins were the latest to feel the wrath of a throwback performance from the 10-time Pro Bowler. Over his last two starts, Rodgers has passed for 508 yards and 3 touchdowns without an interception.

The Steelers need Rodgers to sustain that form, as they look to lock up the top spot in the AFC North with three games left on the schedule.

Through 15 weeks in the 2025 season, the Steelers own the best record in the division at 8-6, while the Baltimore Ravens are behind them with a 7-7 slate.
