Jerome Bettis says Steelers still need more talent

Former running back Jerome Bettis believes the Pittsburgh Steelers have improved their roster this offseason but remain short of a championship level. He praised the additions made by the team while noting ongoing weaknesses. Bettis highlighted quarterback Aaron Rodgers as a potential factor that could elevate the squad.

Bettis, speaking recently, said the Steelers upgraded their talent compared to last year. “They’ve got a chance,” he stated. “I think they’ve upgraded the football team in terms of talent. When you look at the team last year, they were not very good from a talent perspective. They’ve got better talent, so I think they’ve got a better chance. But I still believe they need more. They don’t have quite enough.”
