SCP Ep. 297: Aaron Rodgers Officially Returns to the Steelers & Reunites with Mike McCarthy | What's the Ceiling?

The wait is finally over... again. Aaron Rodgers officially returns to the Steelers and Aaron Rodgers reunites with Mike McCarthy.

Fitting ending, but what's the ceiling with an older Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy? Sure, the team looks better and there are better offensive weapons for Rodgers, but will it be the same old Steelers or an actual improvement? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
