Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward advanced to become a semifinalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026, the 10th time that Ward has been a semifinalist, but three other former Steelers did not, including former semifinalist James Harrison.

Ward is among the 26 semifinalists announced by the Hall of Fame on Tuesday for the Class of 2026 that will be cut to 15 finalists later this year before the full Hall of Fame selection committee votes on the class in February.

Ward has been a semifinalist for nine consecutive years, but has never advanced beyond...

The guys also broke down the defense’s schematic issues, which once again played a big part in the loss.

Let’s get into it:

Not everybody thinks it’s time for the Pittsburgh Steelers to part ways with head coach Mike Tomlin.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has been under a lot of scrutiny following the team’s 31-28 loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 12. However, not everyone believes Tomlin should be on the hot seat.

NFL analyst Ryan Wilson disagrees with the growing belief that it’s time for the Steelers to move on from their long-time head coach.

“You fire Mike Tomlin, but what’s Plan B,” Wilson asked on CBS Sports HQ. “Who’s gonna come in and do what Mike Tomlin has...

The Steelers don’t have much hope for improvement on offense this year, which is why Roman Wilson becomes a topic. The second-year wide receiver has begun to play more but hasn’t really broken through yet. But it’s not as though he is surrounded by playmakers who are putting up big numbers. The reality is that […]

At the beginning of the season, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense managed to find some momentum. They produced good performances against the New York Jets, Minnesota Vikings, and Cincinnati Bengals. However, it’s been a bit of a slog since then for Arthur Smith’s unit. Without Aaron Rodgers on Sunday against Chicago, the Steelers were a little […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ AFC North rival cannot catch a break.

Though the Steelers still control their destiny, Cameron Heyward doesn’t want to leave anything to chance for their playoff hopes. He knows there are only six games to go, and Pittsburgh is heading in the wrong direction. Over their last six games, they have lost four times, and usually in concerning ways. “The hourglass is […]

After their fourth loss in six games, frustration is beginning to set in for the Pittsburgh Steelers’ faithful.

The black and gold dropped Sunday’s contest to Chicago, despite several chances to claim victory. The losing effort also means Pittsburgh loses control of the AFC North, as Baltimore now holds the tiebreaker, sitting at 6-5 as well.

While the Steelers still control their own destiny, the loss on Sunday was one of devastating proportions, leaving former Pittsburgh players no choice but to voice their thoughts.

Ex-Steelers James Harrison and Joe Haden took to their podcast, Deebo and Joe, to share their...

Player: RB Kenneth Gainwell Stock Value: Up Reasoning: For the second game in a row, Kenneth Gainwell topped 100 yards from scrimmage, the third time this season. He never had a 100-yard game prior to this season, but is finding more success with the Steelers. On Sunday, he rushed for 92 yards, including a 55-yard […]

The Steelers have six games remaining, including four against one-time Super Bowl favorites, a chance to show they are contenders. Eleven games into the season, they very much control their own destiny, tied atop the AFC North. Of course, just a few weeks ago, they held a 3.5-game lead, but that was before they spiraled. […]

Sunday’s loss to the Chicago Bears marked a low point in the season for the Pittsburgh Steelers. After a big home win against the Bengals in Week 11, the Steelers dropped back down to earth in the Windy City, only scoring 21 offensive points against one of the league’s worst defenses, and allowing 31.

Now 6-5 and suddenly out of the playoff picture, the Steelers look more than ever like the middling team they’ve been for the last several years. Despite an aggressive offseason, the team is still getting the same results.

Will Pittsburgh regret the Minkah Fitzpatrick trade? -----------------------------------------------------...
