Player: OL Dyan Cook Stock Value: Up Reasoning: Dylan Cook made his first NFL start as the Steelers’ fourth-string left tackle, but he didn’t play like it—in either sense. He didn’t play like he was making his first start, nor did he play like a fourth-stringer. Cook has been in the Steelers’ system for a […]

PITTSBURGH — Minkah Fitzpatrick was a fixture on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense for over five seasons. Those with the longest current tenures in black and gold still view the Miami Dolphins safety in the same high regard.

Fitzpatrick went down with a calf injury during the third quarter of Monday night’s 28-15 Steelers win. The home team gathered around him in concern.

“This game, I’ve had the pleasure of playing with a lot of great players — and Minkah’s one of them,” Steelers mainstay Cam Heyward said afterward. “And he’s a great friend of mine. A couple of us were...

The Steelers played arguably their best game on defense last night in a win over the Dolphins, especially through three quarters. While Miami made the end result look more respectable, Pittsburgh built up a 28-3 lead with 13 minutes to play. And the Dolphins picked up most of their yardage after that point, barely coming […]

On a night the Pittsburgh Steelers needed to make a big-time statement at Acrisure Stadium in primetime against a red-hot Miami Dolphins team, they delivered. The Steelers thoroughly dominated the Dolphins in frigid conditions in a 28-15 win that wasn’t as close as the final score indicated. The Steelers bottled up the Dolphins’ run game, […]

Pittsburgh has now stacked two impactful AFC wins in a row, downing the Miami Dolphins 28-15 on Monday Night Football in a game that felt over in the fourth quarter. As always, there are plenty of takeaways to be had.

1. For over a quarter, the Steelers looked the best they have all season

From the end of the second quarter through the beginning of the fourth, the Steelers scored four consecutive touchdowns and gave up zero points in a 28-0 run that put Miami out of the picture well before the game ended.

The offense was humming —...

The Steelers and Dolphins looked to be two teams headed in opposite directions. They still might be—only going the other way now. Miami was one of the hotter teams in football after a dismal start, while Pittsburgh had cooled more recently. Coming off a big win over the Ravens, however, they kept it going on […]

PITTSBURGH — Jonnu Smith was prepared to spend the rest of his football career in South Beach. Instead, in freezing temperatures on Monday night, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ tight end was leaving the Miami Dolphins in the dust.

With the Steelers up 18 points in the fourth quarter, Smith lined up in the backfield and took a toss from Aaron Rodgers. He hit a hole opened up by Adam Thielen and Darnell Washington and raced in untouched for a 14-yard rushing touchdown.

“That was nice, huh?” Smith said afterwards. “All credit due to those guys up front, making that a lot...

PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was surgical in Monday night’s 28-15 win over the Miami Dolphins. The four-time MVP completed 23 of 27 passes (85.2%) for 224 yards with two touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 125.9.

Rodgers’ 85.2% completion percentage was his best since 2014. Over the last two weeks, he has a 75.4% completion rate with 508 yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions, and a 116.0 passer rating. His 0.25 EPA per dropback is seventh in the NFL among QBs with 40 attempts during this span, per TruMedia.

Rodgers feels like he’s in the zone...

How serious is Isaac Seumalo’s latest injury? Veteran Steelers OG Isaac Seumalo suffered another injury during their victory over the Dolphins Monday, this time a triceps injury. Seumalo already missed one game earlier this season due to a pectoral injury. He also missed time in other games as well, surely playing through some ailments. Seumalo […]

PITTSBURGH — A lot can happen in two weeks. The Pittsburgh Steelers left Acrisure Stadium on Nov. 30, with the echoes of the boos of their fanbase and the calls for the firing of head coach Mike Tomlin still echoing through the concourses.

Monday night, two weeks and one day later, the Steelers dominated the Miami Dolphins, putting themselves into a commanding position in the AFC North — and looking like a team that could win games in January.

Of course, the Steelers didid’t need this two-game stretch to learn that less. The members of the squad’s 2024 team can...

PITTSBURGH — DK Metcalf made it sound so blasé.

“It was just football,” the Pittsburgh Steelers’ star receiver said about his touchdown reception during a 28-15 win over the Miami Dolphins on Monday night.

Nice try. The 28-yard catch-and-run was more akin to the plows that shoved aside snow in Pittsburgh the two days before.

The hyperbole, to be clear, is completely warranted.

From the left slot with 5:06 to go in the third quarter, Metcalf ran a post on third-and-11, turning his back to the end zone to pin Aaron Rodgers’ on-the-money fastball to his chest. As Metcalf backpedaled...

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense has had some rough moments this season. It’s fallen well short of the expectations set for it. However, the Steelers’ defense put in a good performance against the Miami Dolphins in Week 15. The Dolphins were held to 15 points and under 300 yards of total offense. However, Patrick Queen thinks […]
