Aaron Rodgers, Mike McCarthy Will Have Unique QB-Coach Reunion With Steelers

Upon agreeing to re-sign with the Steelers, Aaron Rodgers is not only is reuniting with Pittsburgh, but he’s reuniting with Mike McCarthy.

Rodgers played under McCarthy for 13 years on the Packers from 2006 to ‘18, when McCarthy was fired 12 games into the season. During that span, they won 107 games, which per ESPN Insights, ranks ninth all-time by a head coach-quarterback duo. They made eight postseason appearances after Rodgers became the starter, and brought home the Packers’ fourth Lombardi trophy and 13th total championship at the conclusion of the 2010 season. Ironically, the team they beat in that Super Bowl, the Steelers, is the one they are now leading together, 20 years after McCarthy first arrived in Green Bay.
