4. Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers are 3-1, but it’s hard to feel great about their chances of hoisting the Lombardi Trophy. Aaron Rodgers is a shell of his former self, the defense is inconsistent, and the team could use a more consistent receiver opposite DK Metcalf. While Calvin Austin had his moments early in the year, an A.J. Brown trade could be just what the doctor ordered. Pittsburgh needs to go on a deep playoff run, and Brown can help accomplish that goal.
