Where we have them finishing

Why

The Steelers had an interesting offseason trading for Michael Pittman and also signing Rico Dowdle, and upgraded the defense with Jamel Dean. Mike McCarthy will be paired with Rodgers for his final season, but I feel this roster will be as decent as they have been the last few seasons
— Nick, 6-11
This was another team that capitalized on 4Q mistakes and flipped the script late in games. This offense is old and not very flattering. The defense does look like it can keep you in games, but lack of playmakers on both sides of the ball will be the downfall of this team.
— Nico, 5-12
The Steelers won 10 games last year despite ranking 25th in total offense, 26th in rushing and 22nd in passing, while allowing 356.9 YPG (17th). The +12 turnover differential helped mask some of those issues, and I’m not convinced that’s sustainable. Aaron Rodgers and Michael Pittman raise the offensive ceiling, but with a new coaching staff and limited high-end talent, 8-9 feels more realistic.
— Brooklyn, 8-9
