The Pittsburgh Steelers are in urgent need of change. Yet they continue to cling to their fading Super Bowl window that likely closed years ago. Signing Aaron Rodgers is the latest example. And they sent mixed signals by trading away WR George Pickens, one of the league’s most talented young wide receivers.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are making headlines for the wrong reasons. First, they are still waiting to hear from QB Aaron Rodgers on whether he will sign with the Steelers or retire. Second, they haven’t come to an agreement on a contract extension with OLB T.J. Watt, who is in the final year of his deal. The Steelers need to resolve these two issues, but analyst Dave Dameshek believes the Rodgers situation may be turning Watt off to signing an extension.
