Steelers’ Aaron Rodgers Hold Advantage in a Rock Fight vs. Texans’ CJ Stroud? | Upset Weekend Coming

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Josh Taylor of KDKA-TV.

The Pittsburgh Steelers know they're in for a fight with the Houston Texans' top ranked defense. But can Aaron Rodgers give them an advantage in a rock fight? Christopher Carter and Josh Taylor discuss how Rodgers could be an advantage against a young CJ Stroud in a tight game where the smallest of mistakes can lead to turnovers that decide the winner. The Steelers have a blueprint to beat the Texans, and it involves hitting big plays on offense and shutting down the Texans run game to force Stroud into uncomfortable situations. These are all things Chris and Josh see to be doable for Mike Tomlin's Steelers, as the defense and offensive have both improved as of late. Also, Chris and Josh give their picks for wildcard weekend.
