PITTSBURGH — Aaron Rodgers doesn’t see the need to dip into his greatest hits to put things in perspective for the slumping Pittsburgh Steelers.
The quarterback who famously told everyone in Green Bay — his teammates included — to “R-E-L-A-X” after a sluggish start, has no plans to spread the same message this time around as Pittsburgh (6-6) begins the stretch run with a visit to Baltimore (6-6) on Sunday with first place in the AFC North on the line.
“I don’t feel like this team has a freak out or a panic that I need to like send a message out to the zeitgeist that everybody needs to just relax a little bit,” Rodgers said Wednesday. “We’ve been playing inconsistent football, that’s for sure. Got to play better.”
