Is any chance to knock off the Chiefs to take the A F.

I'm not going to get on here and and and backtrack and back pedal and and talk about how I don't believe in the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Hey, man, I just treat you like you'd treat my guy and Max man, you know, when you look at the Pittsburgh Steelers and the way that they're that they're put together, you know they're a team that's put together to pressure Patrick Mahomes, maybe to play zone on the back end because you can rush four.

They can also score on offense, and when we've watched Kansas City have trouble, it's been because teams are able to move the football on them.

And when you have chase Claypool, Juju, Smith, Schuster, James Washington, Deontay Johnson, there's so many weapons for big.

Been to choose from and throw to, And then on the other side of that, you have to have a quarterback who's willing to compete, willing to go toe to toe.

And that could make crucial plays in critical football moments for your football team.

And that's what Ben Roethlisberger can do.

We we talked about how great Andy Reid was as a football coach, right?

It was just Can he win that championship?

Well, you know a coach that does have a championship.

You know, a coach who has never had a losing season.

Do you know a coach whose team is undefeated this year?

And so when you look at everything that you need to be a winning football team, a championship football team and deep thrown a champion, the Pittsburgh Steelers have it, and they can absolutely unseat the Kansas City Chiefs as the A F C representative in the Super Bowl.

I'm taking a wait and see approach to this Ryan in all seriousness, man, because I'm reticent because you know this better than me There are times, for example, where AH, mistake's here or there is made by the Pittsburgh Steelers, and their defense is ableto overcoming.

My fear is, is that you make those mistakes early, and then you end up looking like Tampa Bay in the first quarter against the Kansas City Chiefs because Patrick Mahomes and Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelsey come out throwing bombs and running roughshod over you and put you in that kind of whole.

We've seen that happen to the Pittsburgh Steelers before, particularly in a playoff game against Jacksonville with Blake, Bortles is their quarterback.

Imagine what could happen if something like that went against what will happen with Patrick home.

I know that it's a different, and I totally get that.

I understand it's a totally different team, and I keep bringing up the weapons.

God, like James Connor, this is where my reticence comes in love.

James Connor, Max Ryan respect him, love his story.

We understand the adversity that has overcome God bless him.

We wish him nothing but the best, and he's pretty damn good, but I'm I guess I'm spoiled a little bit, uh, Ryan by the Jerome Medicines of the World, the Levian belt of the world, Guys that come out of the backfield that can really, really assist you in moving the chains and keeping the ball out of the opposing offense.

I have no question about the Steelers receiving.

The Claypool's juju, Smith, Schuster, Eric Ebron, Washington's Washington D Andre Johnson.

We get it, but you've got to be able to methodically marched down the field and be the team and keep the ball out of the opposing offenses hands.

That's my question mark about the Pittsburgh Steelers right now.

I mean, the Patriots team that the greatest show on turf, who was the name brand running back?

You know, like Belichick has a good running game a lot of the time without a name brand guy, you don't need a name brand guy to move the chains on TV that people on the ground and do what you gotta do.

And But I mean, like Tomlin right now, right now, Mike Tomlin has a chance to elevate his stature, his status among the all time great coaching.

He's already a future Hall of Fame coach.

He's coming and went 88 without a quarterback starting a third stringer.

Imagine for a second that they wind up in the A F C championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs, and he turns in a coaching performance.

He has a team like the Patriots that played the greatest show on turf.

Like but but But that well rounded New England team who wasn't going to show you how great they were against run of the mill teams.

They needed another great team to bring it out in them, to show you everything they could dio.

If Pittsburgh does that to Kansas City, that actually the year after we said Mike Tomlin just turned in his best coaching performance.

Actually, that would be Tomlin's greatest coaching performance, and it would elevate him even more.

If you're asking, can they knock off the Chiefs to win the A F.

C and Andy Reid was a guy who was getting got very close.

Five NFC championship games, right, but no cigars.

Now Andy Reid's got that, too, and he's totally loaded and read like Tomlin is a truly great coach because he was able to change with the times.

He wasn't stuck like Mike McCarthy in a previous era.

He was a great coach in a previous era, and if anything, you've got even better going forward like Tomlin.

So I think because of that, because the Chiefs also have a great coach, a Super Bowl winning coach, a guy who is consistently had success at the highest level.

I think that neutralizes somewhat the thing that really makes Pittsburgh different special, which is their head coach.

Well, I think talent in cases, Yeah, carry the day.

Yeah, and see, that's the thing is not who were predicting to win the question is, can they do it now?

There's some teams that no matter what they did, you feel like if they go up against Kansas City, whether it's a regular season game of playoff game, they don't have what it takes.

What I'm saying is, when you look, I still have Kansas City at number one on my power ranking because I believe all of those things that you said Max.

But when I think of a team that's perfectly and ready made to beat them to unseat them one day, right?

I don't think there's a team in the league that could beat the Kansas City Chiefs 10 times out of 10 or beat them.

You know Mawr, the majority of times out of 10 than the Kansas City Chiefs will win.

 You gotta be better that day, and I believe the Pittsburgh Steelers can do that.
