4. Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers are 5-3, a record that isn’t uncommon for Mike Tomlin’s squad. However, the way in which they earned those wins is not what you’d normally expect from the Steelers. After a slow start to the season, Aaron Rodgers is playing good football and has the offense looking alive for the first time in years. The defense, meanwhile, is something of a liability.
While the unit deserves credit for stopping Daniel Jones and the Indianapolis Colts, the overall body of work leaves something to be desired. Rodgers is still good, but he’s not the guy who can singlehandedly win every shootout at this stage in his career. A Bradley Chubb trade would give the Steelers a much-needed complement to T.J. Watt and increase the team’s odds of finally winning a playoff game.
