“What an absolute loser”: NFL fans accuse Aaron Rodgers of being concerned about Myles Garrett sack record rather than Steelers' playoff chances

NFL fans had a lot to say about Aaron Rodgers' performance against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. The veteran quarterback entered Huntington Bank Field with the chance to secure the AFC North title, but the Browns had different plans. They upset the Steelers 13-6, leaving the door open for the Baltimore Ravens to win the division in Week 18.

Many fans noticed the same about Rodgers. He avoided putting himself in a position to get sacked by Browns defensive end Myles Garrett, which hurt his team's chances of getting a crucial win for their playoff aspirations. They didn't hesitate and called out Rodgers on social media.

"Aaron Rodgers would rather lose this game than get sacked by Myles Garrett. What an absolute loser," one fan said.

"Aaron Rodgers cares more about not letting Myles Garrett get the sack record than actually winning the game," reporter Carl Jones said. "Aaron Rodgers is playing not to get sacked by Myles Garrett instead of playing to beat the Browns," another fan said.

More fans joined the conversation, noting that the four-time NFL MVP wasn't being aggressive.

"Aaron Rodgers’ only goal today was not being the qb that Myles Garrett got the record on. Mission accomplished…what a joke," one fan said. "Steelers just lost the game because Aaron Rodgers cared more about not giving Myles Garrett the record than winning the game," another fan said. "Aaron Rodgers care about Myles Garrett not getting the sack than winning lmao," another fan said.

Rodgers was sacked twice, but not by Garrett. Grant Delpit and Alex Wright took Rodgers down once each, while the 2023 Defensive Player of the Year finished with one tackle and one quarterback hit.
