ESPN Analyst Projects Steelers To Miss Playoffs, But Stay ‘Very Much In The Conversation’ In AFC

Things aren’t looking all that promising for the Pittsburgh Steelers right now, not after trading wide receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys, opening up a hole on the roster, and certainly not as they continue to wait for a decision from 41-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The Steelers were a playoff team last year, and at one point looked like one of the best teams in the NFL, sitting at 10-3 and rolling right along with one of the league’s highest-scoring offenses.

Then it all came crashing down, the Steelers losing four straight regular-season games to end the year and then getting blown out in the Wild Card, ending a once-promising season in ugly fashion.
