Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers gave left tackle Broderick Jones an ear full for tackling him during a touchdown celebration following Pat Freiermuith’s 68-yard catch-and-run score against the Cincinnati Bengals in Thursday night’s 33-31 loss.

Rodgers’ strike to Freiermuth gave the Steelers a 31-30 lead with 2:21 remaining in the game. After the touchdown, Rodgers did his vintage arm pump celebration. Jones then came from behind and foolishly tackled Rodgers.

To say the least, the 41-year-old quarterback wasn’t happy and scolded Jones for it. He even shoved the third-year tackle. Rodgers appeared fine, but that could have been a drastic...

Most of the NFL world didn’t know what version of Aaron Rodgers the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to get. They were confident in their decision to wait and eventually sign him. And so far that’s clearly paying off. Rodgers has flirted with coming back for another season, but of course nothing is definitive yet. At […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers could be getting back a starting receiver for a key Sunday night game against the Green Bay Packers. Sidelined the last two games due to a shoulder injury, WR Calvin Austin III expressed optimism that he’ll return for Week 8. “Hopefully!” he told reporters Monday, as shared by the Trib’s Chris Adamski. […]

It’s hard to win football games in which you allow 328 yards through the air and another 142 on the ground — unless your defense is taking the ball away. The Pittsburgh Steelers were reminded of that during their 33-31 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night.

“When we’re not getting it, we better secure it,” Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said afterwards. “I think it’s the totality of it. We work as a collective. So, if we’re not getting it, we certainly better protect it. We didn’t do a good enough job of getting to it, we didn’t...

With the NFL season almost halfway over, there are still a lot of questions about the Pittsburgh Steelers. While they’re atop of AFC North, it’s anyone’s guess whether they’ll be actual contenders come playoff time. At times, the Steelers have looked great, with their offense and defense complementing each other. However, in their latest game, […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers placed special teams captain Miles Killebrew on IR last Thursday after a significant knee injury suffered in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers can become one of five quarterbacks in NFL history to beat all 32 teams with a win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. It will be Rodgers’ first meeting against his former team since departing Green Bay after the 2022 season.

With a win over the Packers, Rodgers will join Brett Favre, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees on the all-time list of QBs to beat all 32 NFL teams.

Rodgers finished 23 of 34 for 249 yards and four touchdowns in Thursday night’s loss to the Bengals, but the two turnovers...

The Pittsburgh Steelers lost a tough game to the Cincinnati Bengals last Thursday night. But it certainly wasn’t the offense’s fault. The Steelers’ run game was the best it’s been all season with 147 yards. And QB Aaron Rodgers posted his second four-touchdown game of the season. Former NFL QB J.T. O’Sullivan called it “vintage […]

The forgotten secondary addition of the offseason could deserve a longer look. During a Monday chat, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette beat writer Brian Batko wondered if CB Brandin Echols should – and will – see a larger role on the heels of the Steelers’ ugly Thursday night loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Responding to a question of […]

They say defense wins championships. And with the highest-paid defense in the NFL, the Steelers should be Super Bowl contenders, right? Instead, the Steelers’ offense has had to carry the load. Whether the issue was sheer talent or bad coaching, the Steelers were overwhelmed defensively by a Cincinnati Bengals team that was not playing well […]

Broderick Jones may be in his third NFL season, but he was starting over in a sense with a move to left tackle. He even admitted not too long before the season that he would need time to feel fully comfortable. It wasn’t a pretty start, but maybe Jones is finally turning the corner with a […]
