What would he bring out of a guy that's going to be 44 midway through next season?

that he hasn't already gotten.

Not to mention, he did have this guy during his prime and got two and won just one Super Bowl.

And you would think with a player as great as Aaron Rodgers, you would be going back more frequently, you know, maybe to a degree of how many times, you know, maybe not quite as many times as we saw Brady or Mahomes, but maybe more in that Peyton Manning well, where a guy got to plenty of Super Bowls and he was like 500 in the games, whatever.

He only went to one.

They won it, but he only went to one.

What is he possibly going to bring out of that player that we haven't already seen?

So I think the reasons for optimism are...

well, there are people who are just going to be optimistic no matter what.

No matter what that Steelers roster looks like, they will be optimists no matter what.

That's fine.

There's always going to be people like that.

Otherwise, it would just have to be, well, McCarthy's an offensive guy.

They've worked together.

Maybe they can rekindle that old magic.

I just don't see at this stage of Aaron's career

how that would possibly get them back over the top.

Get him another weapon or two for sure.

And you have an offensive guy, a system he already knows.

I get it, but you said it.
