Ocho, it seems like Aaron Rodgers is returning for one more season and appears increasingly likely per Tom Pelissero. The odds are rising that he comes back. I don't see it being any other plays. If he's going to play, I believe it's going to be for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ocho? Yeah. new head coach, familiarity, Mike McCarthy. Will this, even if he comes back, are the Steelers legitimate contenders for the Super Bowl next season? I mean, I wouldn't say legitimate contenders. I mean, they're legitimate, you know, contenders to, I mean, in the AFC, you know, depending on what. AFC North. AFC North. But they still, they still got a long way to go. They got to work on that defense too, huh? As great as the players, as great as the names are, you know, that they had on that defense.
They didn't play like it, huh?
What are the concerns regarding the Steelers' defense and Super Bowl contention?
No.
How do the hosts react to the passing of Rondale Moore?
They didn't play like it. They need another weapon to go alongside DK Metcalf. They do. They need another, I'm talking about a reliable option to go along DK Metcalf. He can't do it by himself. Obviously, as great as Aaron Rodgers was, he is not the Aaron Rodgers of old, but he needs players around him to elevate his level of play. So he doesn't have to... Wait, wait. He doesn't have to take the burden of the shoulders and having to elevate the players around him because he's not the same. He's not the young Aaron Roosevelt, and it would be great if they get a better supporting cast around him. I mean, running game is decent. Get you one solid receiver, just one more receiver that you can count on, that you can be blindfolded, you can hike the ball, and you know exactly where you're going to be, and you know he's going to be open for you every single time.
You mean shoulder to bird? They need a bad boy. Huh? You mean shoulder to bird? Yeah, shoulder to bird. Shoulder to bird. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I ain't had to use that in so long. You got it. I was like, hold on. What did I say? What did I say? You said bird to shoulder. I said it backwards? My bad. Yeah. No, but you know what, Ocho? You Ocho, we already know what you meant. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. I appreciate that. Yeah, I agree, Ocho. I agree. I mean, because, you know, look. I don't think, I don't, look, it's going to be very interesting to see the Patriots. Can they replicate? Because they won the division.
What tragic news is discussed about Rondale Moore?
You'll have a more difficult schedule. You'll play division winners and you play a different conference this year. Buffalo, what did they do? The Broncos, what did they do? The Texans, what did they do? All those teams, you know, The Texans, that defense, I don't see that defense dropping off. Hell no. Maybe Ocho, they go get a protector. Okay. Because I don't really see, I don't think they need a whole lot. I don't think they need a whole lot because they got guys that can go get after the quarterback.
