Someone had to say it.
So, of course, Terry Bradshaw said it and Aaron Rodgers’ ‘career’ as a Pittsburgh Steeler will never be the same.
As of Wednesday morning, Rodgers still hadn’t officially joined the only NFL team left for him to join.
There have been thousands of articles written about Rodgers potentially signing with the Steelers.
There have been real theories, conspiracy theories, debunked rumors and unavoidable facts.
It’s easy to wonder what pro football will be like whenever Rodgers retires.
He’s a content machine, and is the only 41-year-old man in the world who’s still super-famous after going 6-12 with the Jets and getting kicked out of New York.
So why in the world should Bradshaw, a four-time Super Bowl winner and NFL legend, be forced to apologize for just being accurate?
“I liked Kenny Pickett,” Bradshaw said in a radio interview with 103.7 The Buzz.
“I liked him at Pitt. I know him, I know what he’s like. When they got him to Pittsburgh, they didn’t protect him, they didn’t get him an offensive line.
“They wanted to run the football, but they didn’t have an offensive line that could protect and they didn’t have weapons. He had no wide receivers to speak of.
“Now, they’re saying Kenny Pickett is a failure. He wasn’t a failure, the Steelers were a failure.”

That’s Bradshaw’s personal opinion, and the man who’s spent years sharing it weekly while covering the NFL on FOX is obviously allowed to share his opinion.
He also wasn’t wrong when he shredded his old team for looking so desperate by waiting and waiting and waiting on Rodgers to say ‘yes.’
With Justin Fields leading Rodgers’ old team and taking over the New York Jets, Pittsburgh is back to Mason Rudolph as its current starting quarterback — which means the Steelers have the worst starting QB in the NFL.
There’s also no guarantee that Rodgers will play in 2025, and he’s one big decision away from retirement.
“That’s a joke. That to me is just a joke,” Bradshaw said.
“What are you going to do? Bring him in for one year, are you kidding me?

“That guy needs to stay in California. Go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper to the gods out there.”
Bradshaw has been forced in the past to apologize to big NFL names including Andy Reid and Rob Gronkowski.
He’s error-prone, occasionally erratic and highly unpredictable.
But when it comes to Rodgers and the Steelers, Bradshaw simply had the courage to publicly say what NFL fans across the country have been wondering for months.
What are the Steelers thinking?
And what in the heck is Rodgers doing?
