'Who are the team that are really in the Super Bowl window? In the AFC, the powerhouse teams are the Chiefs, Bills, Ravens, Texans, and Bengals. The Chargers and the Broncos looked pretty good last year, too. That's seven. Where does the Steelers fit? We looked at teams in the NFC as well- the Eagles, Lions, Rams, 49ers, and the Buccaneers. That's five right there. If the Steelers are one of the top 10 or 12 teams, it's number 12. If they even get a seat at the table, they are number 12,' says Florio, as reported by The Sports Rush. Aaron Rodgers's views on the Steelers Rodgers, however, remains confident of his team's ability to have a solid shot at competing this year. In a recent press interview, he seemed to hint towards the possibility of staying with the team for longer, following his earlier remarks of calling it quits after this season. When asked whether he still stuck to his previous statement, Rodgers replied, 'Yeah, I might go into the season like that. I might not,' with a chuckle.
