WATCH: Aaron Rodgers tells critics ‘Shhh’

Aaron Rodgers has one word for the doubters.

“Shhh,” he told NBC following his six-touchdown performance Sunday night, leading his Packers to a 42-24 victory over the Texans.

Following the statement he smiled and walked away.

The team, considered a Super Bowl contender, had attracted criticism following a 2-3 start.

But then Rodgers threw three touchdown passes to Jordy Nelson, two to James Jones and one to Tom Crabtree, compiling 338 passing yards – and one postgame statement – to silence the critics.
