A Steelers team with Rodgers as QB1 is going to be competing for an AFC North division title in 2022. They have a roster ready to compete immediately, with speculations intensifying after Rodgers praised Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.

But Rodgers will be arriving at the Heinz Field to win the Super Bowl title in 2022 and determining the best possible situation for him to make it a reality.
