However, major sportsbook DraftKings disagrees. They haven’t budged on the odds the Steelers win the Super Bowl, which currently sits at -4000. The Steelers are behind the Minnesota Vikings (+3000) and the Denver Broncos (+2500), but are ahead of the Dallas Cowboys, who come in at +6000.

Most prognosticators were correct — Aaron Rodgers won't reinvent the wheel with his jersey number choice as the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers this season. He's going back to his familiar No. 8, a number donned the last two years with the New York Jets.

Sure, Rodgers hasn’t officially said he’s retiring after this season. But he’s also 41 years old, playing like it, and selective on where he plays from here on out. There’s not going to be too many options left over after this season. Which is why he needs to have a historic season to finish on a high.
