For 10+ Years, Aaron Rodgers Lived Rent-Free in Ryan Clark’s Head
Ryan Clark is one of the good ones with ESPN. He is not a yardbarker. He gives solid takes and is definitely a little different. Clark is a bit biased towards the Pittsburgh Steelers, but can you blame him? He played his whole career there. I would be biased too. Clark was on with Pat McAfee prior to Aaron Rodgers joining the show for his usual Tuesday appearance. Clark still remembers a touchdown that Aaron Rodgers scored against him in the Super Bowl. The stories are different, WHO YA GOT?!

My favorite part of this whole thing is Rodgers going ‘He talks a lot about this’… Which is a clear example of living rent-free. The term gets fucking overused but still, this is a rent-free example. Clark wakes up thinking about how Rodgers zoomed a pass right through his hands. It is also laughable for Clark to think this would change the game though. Clark wasn’t running it back likely from his own end zone. And even if he did, the score is 14-10 and lot of ballgame left as a certain Packers blogger would say. Here’s the play so you can watch with your owns. I apologize for the shitty quality. But enjoy Jennings catching the ball right over Clark’s hands and revel in the amazing placement here. Only Rodgers and maybe a few other quarterbacks can make this toss.
I’m sure the ‘Get Up’ crew will likely bring this up to Clark today, and the beef between Clark-Rodgers will be squashed. Yet still, it’s pretty amazing how much this bothers him still to this day.
