It is pretty obvious which team is the class of the AFC at the moment. The back-to-back defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs are the only undefeated team remaining in the NFL, so all other teams are measured against their standard. Should the Pittsburgh Steelers win on Monday Night Football tonight, they will be one of three teams with six wins in that next tier behind the Chiefs. With renewed hope at the quarterback position via Russell Wilson, how much of a threat does that make the Steelers?
Former NFL DL and current ESPN radio host Chris Canty believes they need to be in that conversation so long as Wilson maintains his level of play.
