It’s been almost 15 years since the Pittsburgh Steelers have won the AFC and advanced to the Super Bowl. For most of the past two decades, the New England Patriots stood in their way as the cream of the crop in the AFC. While the Patriots’ dominance is over, that doesn’t mean the AFC is any less competitive. The Steelers improved their team this offseason, but analyst Dave Dameshek still doesn’t believe they can make it out of the AFC.
“I want everyone on the banks of the three rivers to have a magical 2025, and if that ends with a Lombardi, then great,” Dameshek said Thursday on the Jim Rome Show.
