This week in Steelers talk

The shows have spent the week previewing the Steelers' Paris matchup with the Saints, focusing on Pittsburgh's defensive creativity under Patrick Graham and Jalen Ramsey's recent dominance. There's ongoing discussion about whether the Steelers are legitimately good or overachieving at 4-2, with some skepticism about Aaron Rodgers' recent hot streak when looking at his full season numbers. The Paris game itself has drawn attention for security concerns around protests in the city.
