    Aaron Rodgers For MVP?!?!
    2026/10/28
    Aaron Rodgers for MVP?! Steelers Pass Rush Is Becoming a Problem!The Pittsburgh Steelers are 5-2, riding a three-game winning streak, and looking like legitimate AFC contenders. But two major questions are emerging in Pittsburgh: Does Aaron Rodgers deserve MVP consideration, and why isn't the Steelers' pass rush producing more?In this episode of Locked On Steelers Hits, Bobby Missos delivers two passionate breakdowns following Pittsburgh's 16-10 victory over the New Orleans Saints in Paris.First, Bobby makes the case for Aaron Rodgers to enter the NFL MVP conversation. At 42 years old, Rodgers continues to demonstrate the leadership, intelligence, and playmaking ability that have defined his career.Then, Bobby turns his attention to Pittsburgh's defensive front. With T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, Nick Herbig, Cam Heyward, and Keeanu Benton, the Steelers have invested heavily in their pass rush. So why did they manage just two sacks against New Orleans?Is Rodgers playing well enough to enter the MVP race? And can Pittsburgh's defense generate enough pressure to make a serious playoff run?🏈 Episode Topics & Timestamps00:00 — Aaron Rodgers for MVP?

    The Pittsburgh Steelers are 5-2 after defeating the New Orleans Saints 16-10 in Paris, but there's still plenty to be concerned about.

    In this episode of Locked On Steelers Hits, Bobby Missos breaks down why Pittsburgh's offense continues to struggle to finish drives despite moving the football effectively.

    On the defensive side, Payton Wilson is emerging as a potential star after delivering a game-changing red-zone interception. Bobby discusses Wilson's development, Patrick Queen's impressive performance, and whether Pittsburgh's linebacker duo could become one of the team's biggest strengths.
