Live from Delaware, it’s Saturday Night! I, NAS204PSU, am here at BTSC to bring you this Saturday Night Open Thread (aka SNOT).

This 4 pack of questions is here to get the conversation going, so let us know what you’re eating/drinking!
1: Our Steelers got revenge against the Bengals in a game that wasn’t close late. Is this a solid win for the Steelers...
Behind the Steel Curtain
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a scout in attendance on Saturday for a matchup of two of the top-rising quarterback prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft: Oregon’s Dante Moore and USC’s Jayden Maiava.
It’s the second straight week the Steelers have scouted Moore and the fourth time they’ve scouted him this season. It’s the first time they’re seeing Maiava.
Maiava has seen his stock rise meteorically, with a his stock at NFL Mock Draft Database in the 700s entering the season before rocketing all the way to the second round mid-season. He is currently the No. 53 overall player.
Moore has...
The Pittsburgh Steelers will play their 11th game of 2025, traveling to the NFC North division to take on the surging Chicago Bears. The division leaders are 7-3 and have won seven of their last eight games. The Steelers are 1-1 against the NFC North so far, winning against Minnesota and losing to Green Bay. […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers did not make any practice squad elevations on Saturday, according to the NFL transactions page, so they will face the Chicago Bears in Week 12 on Sunday with just the 53 players on their active roster. That means that veterans Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Asante Samuel Jr. will have to wait at least one more week to make their debuts with the team.
The Steelers had until 5 p.m. on Saturday to make elevations of players, in order for them to be eligible to play on Sunday.
It will make the third straight week that Valdes-Scantling has remained...

Regardless of how the rest of the regular season unfolds with Aaron Rodgers under center, it’s no secret that the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to be on the hunt this offseason for their next franchise quarterback. Headlined by Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza, the 2026 quarterback class is better than most are currently giving it credit for, but it’s admittedly dependent on a handful of inexperienced signal callers declaring early. How will those situations unfold? Only time will tell.
The bigger concern is that there are three quarterback-needy teams with multiple first-round picks, such as the Cleveland Browns and New York Jets,...
In the Steelers’ dominant 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals last weekend, the heated dispute between Pittsburgh Steelers safety Jalen Ramsey and Bengals star receiver Ja’Marr Chase stole the show.
Early in the fourth quarter, Ramsey and Chase, who had been jawing at each other all afternoon, finally got into a scuffle. Ramsey landed a punch on Chase and was ejected for the remainder of the game. Afterwards, Ramsey said it was because Chase spit on him.
The NFL announced Saturday that Ramsey received additional discipline for the fight.
ESPN’s Brooke Pryor reported that Ramsey’s punch resulted in a fine...

When offensive tackle Mike Adams was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2012, it fulfilled his childhood dream of joining the team that he grew up rooting for. However, a failed drug test at the NFL Combine nearly ruined everything. Adams joined The 330 Sports Show this week to discuss his life and career and […]

Despite his retaliating blow being socially warranted, the NFL had to punish Jalen Ramsey accordingly. The Pittsburgh Steelers veteran defensive back was fined by the league office for punching Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja’Marr Chase, who spit on him a moment before during last Sunday’s game.
“NFL fined Steelers DB Jalen Ramsey $14,491 for punching Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase last Sunday,” ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter wrote Saturday on X.
Ramsey and Chase had exchanged pleasantries leading up to the incident, but the former’s view on the matter was blunt.
“He spit on me, so it’s up. I don’t give a...
The Pittsburgh Steelers play the Chicago Bears on the road on Sunday afternoon, and if you’re like me, you’re counting down the hours until the 1 PM/EST contest begins. As usual, I will project the Steelers’ inactives for every game of the 2025 season, and below is my best guess as to which players won’t […]

The Chicago Bears have signed RB Brittain Brown and LB Carl Jones Jr. to the active roster ahead of their Week 12 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. In corresponding moves, RB Roschon Johnson and LB Tremaine Edmunds were placed on IR. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the transaction. Bears placed Tremaine Edmunds and Roschon Johnson on […]

Both the Bears and Steelers had lengthy injury and game status reports following Friday’s practices.
However, Pittsburgh has updated its report on Saturday, removing the “questionable” tags for veteran defenders Cam Heyward and Darius Slay — they should be good to go on gameday.
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers remains questionable for Pittsburgh while outside linebacker Alex Highsmith is still doubtful. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac reported Saturday that Highsmith is “not expected to play.”
The Bears haven’t updated their injury report, which includes their top three linebackers being out, multiple defensive backs questionable, and starting left tackle Theo Benedet questionable.
