Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s whether the Pittsburgh offense can go toe-to-toe with Cincinnati’s in a shootout.

In the last five games between the Steelers and Bengals, every time Cincinnati has had Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins available to them, they’ve scored at least 30 points.

The Pittsburgh offense is coming off its worst game of the season, managing just 10 points after a garbage-time touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers on...

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator Teryl Austin is not expecting the same performance from his defense this week.

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense struggled mightily to stop the Cincinnati Bengals in their 33-31 loss in Week 7. Steelers defensive coordinator Teryl Austin does not expect to see a similar performance in their second meeting of the season this week, though.

Austin revealed that his confidence in the group is simply that it had a bad day a month ago.

“I just think we obviously didn’t play very well that day,” Austin said. “Every day’s a single day. Every game takes on its...

Ja’Marr Chase and the Cincinnati Bengals gave the Pittsburgh Steelers all they could handle earlier this season. Chase set the record for receptions against the Steelers with 16, and he added 161 yards and a touchdown on top of that. It was a rough day for the Steelers’ secondary. However, Pittsburgh has a chance to […]

A former running back of the Pittsburgh Steelers is free to sign wherever he’d like.

One day after his release by the Pittsburgh Steelers, veteran running back Trey Sermon cleared waivers, the NFL announced on Thursday.

Sermon signed with the Steelers on May 11 after a tryout at rookie minicamp. He had just been [promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster on...

In today’s what-have-you-done-for-me-lately NFL, things are not looking good for the Pittsburgh Steelers. They’ve lost three of their last four under head coach Mike Tomlin and are coming off of a beatdown at the hands of the Los Angeles Chargers last Sunday night on the West Coast. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers had his worst performance of […]

Nobody on the Steelers’ coaching staff seems to want to talk about Marquez Valdes-Scantling, and one wonders why that is. Not to say that it isn’t unreasonable for the coaches to take that stance, but there seem to be several possibilities. Are they downplaying his signing because they don’t see it as a significant move, […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers once looked like they might run away with the AFC North this season. However, they’re 5-4 right now, and the Baltimore Ravens are right behind them at 4-5. The Cincinnati Bengals aren’t out of the race, either. Because of that, Ryan Wilson gave the Steelers an underwhelming grade midway through the season. […]

Leading up to the Week 10 Sunday Night Football matchup against the host Los Angeles Chargers, veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers was playing some sound football within the Pittsburgh Steelers’ scheme. To that point, he was everything the Steelers had expected: a guy who could lead a young offense, get them in the right looks and […]

Whether Isaac Seumalo plays or not Sunday, it seems the Steelers still intend to use Spencer Anderson in their jumbo package. Last Sunday, despite starting at left guard for the injured Seumalo, he kicked out wide when they brought out the big boys. In his place, they inserted Andrus Peat at left guard. Ray Fittipaldo […]
