This article was originally published on Larry Brown Sports.
The two oldest quarterbacks in the NFL are set to go head-to-head on Thursday, and one Pittsburgh Steelers player has bestowed the game with the perfect nickname.
41-year-old Aaron Rodgers and 40-year-old Joe Flacco will face each other when the Steelers go up against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. It will mark only the second time ever that two quarterbacks age 40 and up will start against each other in an NFL game.
Steelers defensive lineman Cam Heyward crashed Rodgers’ media availability on Tuesday to give the game a perfect title.
“Oldest quarterbacks playing this week. Let’s go. Icy Hot Bowl. I love it,” Heyward said.
In a fitting intro to Aaron Rodgers’ weekly scrum, Cam Heyward heckled the QB and called the game against Joe Flacco the “Icy Hot Bowl”
Then Rodgers talked about the novelty of two 40+ QBs playing against each other.

Heyward is 36 himself, so he clearly enjoys that the old guys are still getting it done. Plus, he might not get many more chances to make a joke like that.
Flacco will be making his second start with the Bengals after they acquired him to start ahead of Jake Browning. Rodgers, meanwhile, is playing out what is likely to be his last NFL season with the Steelers.
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin is not exactly happy to be facing Flacco this week. For Rodgers, it is something to relish in what may be his final season.
