Starkey & Mueller

The Steelers have been picked to win the AFC North by Rob Gronkowski. Do they have a chance to pull that off? Chris quickly said no and sees the Steelers as a 10-win team, at most. Poni doesn’t think the gap is all that wide, but said the Bengals are a real wild card. Donny thinks the Ravens will win 14+ games and just too good for the Steelers to keep up with. Mike White ranked the 10 best WPIAL football players since 2000. PG columnist Jason Mackey joined the show. Jason doesn’t think the Steelers are a ‘serious’ threat in the AFC and can’t see them finishing ahead of the Ravens. Jason thinks the Steelers finish 11-6 and Aaron Rodgers is better than we expect, plus a playoff win. How good of a season do the Steelers have to have for Rodgers to run it back here? Jason is impressed by the early returns on Bubba Chandler and thinks he’s starting games in the not-too-distant future.
