Steelers' Patience in WR Trade Market Should Be Trusted | Russell Wilson's Shot to Prove Consistency

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven't made a trade to get a big name at wide receiver yet, but Christopher Carter thinks fans should trust Omar Khan's patience. The wide receiver trade market has brought up several big names, but have the Steelers truly missed on Brandon Aiyuk, who's out for the season, Davante Adams, who's struggling on the Jets, or Cooper Kupp, who turns out wasn't being traded by the Rams? Could the Steelers find a way to be a good offense this year without trading for a receiver to partner with George Pickens? 

Also, Chris explains why the AFC North could be wide open for the Steelers after the Baltimore Ravens' loss to the Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals' loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. But to walk through the door of opportunity to win the AFC North, the Steelers need Russell Wilson to prove the offense can be consistent and put up points in their Monday night showdown with the New York Giants.
