We have three more great games on tap on this Sunday and can all sit back and enjoy them all with the Pittsburgh Steelers not playing their game until Monday night.

Despite having a breakout year, Pittsburgh Steelers third-year cornerback Joey Porter Jr. was not named first or second-team All-Pro by the Associated Press. He did not even receive a single vote from the AP voters.

Derek Stingley Jr. of the Houston Texans and Quinyon Mitchell of the Philadelphia Eagles were named first-team All-Pro, while Patrick Surtain II of the Denver Broncos and Devon Witherspoon of the Seattle Seahawks were second-team All-Pro. Those are all deserving players, but it’s mind-boggling how Porter did not get any votes.

Porter, 25, took his game to another level this season. In 14 games, the...

The Pittsburgh Steelers were dealt a blow with LT Broderick Jones suffering a season-ending neck injury in Week 12 against the Chicago Bears, but the Steelers have solidified the position with the emergence of Dylan Cook. Cook replaced Andrus Peat in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens after Peat suffered a concussion. He’s been rock […]

Comparisons to Heath Miller were inevitable when the Steelers made Pat Freiermuth their highest-drafted tight end since 2005 — the year they struck gold with Miller at the end of the first round. Freiermuth’s rookie season made them inescapable. Ben Roethlisberger, as with Miller, took an instant liking to Freiermuth. Seven of his 22 TD […]

Hopefully this isn’t the last mailbag of the season. We’ll find out soon enough when the Pittsburgh Steelers host the Houston Texans on Monday night to close out the wild card round.

Q: What I would really like to know is: Did all the BTSC staff really pick the Steelers to beat the Rats last weekend? Or were you all just trying to please us fans? – Polamolicules_Dude

A: Was a clean sweep across the board. The Steelers usually beat Baltimore, so I wasn’t shocked. I’d assume the rest of the staff had similar thoughts.

Defensive tackle Isaiahh Loudermilk, who remains on the injured reserve list and had his 21-day practice window opened on Friday, has been ruled out of the Pittsburgh Steelers Monday Night Football playoff game against the Houston Texans.

The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t won a playoff game since the 2016 season, and their playoff win drought has led to a lot of heat being put on head coach Mike Tomlin. With the Steelers hosting a playoff game on Monday for the first time since 2020 and in the wake of the Baltimore Ravens firing […]

All he could do was call TE Pat Freiermuth pre-game and watch the kickoff from his home. After the division was won, […]
