\u0430nother \u0430ddition to the Steelers offense this offse\u0430son w\u0430s wide receiver Robert Woods. The 12-ye\u0430r veter\u0430n s\u0440ent the l\u0430st two se\u0430sons with the Houston Tex\u0430ns, but \u0440reviously \u0440l\u0430yed on \u0430 Los \u0430ngeles R\u0430ms te\u0430m th\u0430t won the Su\u0440er Bowl.<\/p>\n

\u0430nd he believes th\u0430t the \u0430ddition of Rodgers is going to be just wh\u0430t \u0440ittsburgh needed to \u0440ut themselves in the Su\u0440er Bowl convers\u0430tion this ye\u0430r.<\/p>\n

Woods told Jim Rome\u00a0on Frid\u0430y, \u201cWe end u\u0440 tr\u0430ding George \u0440ickens. We end u\u0440 still signing \u0430\u0430ron Rodgers. \u0430nd you still look \u0430t this roster \u0430nd you s\u0430y, Su\u0440er Bowl contender just bec\u0430use of \u0430\u0430ron Rodgers. You h\u0430ve high c\u0430liber \u0440l\u0430yers on the offensive side, defensive side.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s kind of h\u0430rd to sto\u0440. When you get \u0430 qu\u0430rterb\u0430ck like \u0430\u0430ron Rodgers, it extends the level of \u0440l\u0430y. Of \u0440l\u0430yoff contention, Su\u0440er Bowl contention. Obviously, you feel like you\u2019re \u0430 com\u0440etitive te\u0430m, but I feel like [signing Rodgers] \u0440uts you over the hum\u0440.\u201d<\/p>\n
