The Pittsburgh Steelers are in the midst of a very successful year. They’ve won with strong defensive play, some much-improved quarterback play compared to previous years, and overall smart, sound football. However, one of the biggest reasons for that record is their kicker, Chris Boswell. Boswell just earned yet another AFC Special Teams Player of […]

Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers recorded their eighth win over the Baltimore Ravens in nine games. While it would be too simplistic to say it came down to one play, the two-point rejection certainly stands out. Trailing by eight points, the Ravens scored with a little over a minute to play. Just as they […]

The post Pittsburgh Steelers 2024 Depth Chart – Week 12 at Cleveland Browns appeared first on Steelers Now.

You may want to brace yourself for this one. For the first time all season, the Pittsburgh Steelers will have the same starting lineup, and almost the same entire depth chart, this week as they did last week. No Steelers players suffered major injuries when the team defeated the Baltimore Ravens at home on Sunday, no previously injured players will be making their return to the lineup, and no transactions were made in the week leading up to Thursday night’s game against...

As we’ve been doing for several years now, we’ll break down the Pittsburgh Steelers’ opponent each week, telling you what to expect from a scheme and individual standpoint. This year, Jonathan Heitritter and I will cover the opposing team’s defense. I will focus on the scheme, Jonathan on the players. Today, scouting the Cleveland Browns’ […]

The post Bell: Don’t Sweat Bumps in the Road for Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. appeared first on Steelers Now.

The second half of the Steelers schedule was loaded with top offenses headlined by talented quarterbacks and we knew that this was going to be a real test to see just how stout this defensive unit really is. In the last two weeks, they’ve shut down two of the most explosive, efficient groups in the league in Washington and Baltimore, stalling out the respective Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player favorites in the process. At the very least,...

After incurring a hefty fine for a hit during a play in the Week 7 Sunday Night Football matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, New York Jets linebacker Quincy Williams earned a win against the league Wednesday. Williams, who was fined $45,020 for an unnecessary roughness for use of his helmet on a play against Steelers […]

Plenty of pundits and analysts were wrong about the Pittsburgh Steelers. Many had them hovering around .500, maybe capturing a Wild Card spot. Some believed they’d win only six games. Few – present company included – considered them AFC and Super Bowl contenders. Tony Dungy was one who had the foresight. And it’s even sweeter to know […]

The Cleveland Browns may or may not be better with Jameis Winston, but the Steelers’ next opponent is certainly different. And one of the key ways in which they have differed since Deshaun Watson’s injury is in their risk tolerance. Their on-field risk tolerance, anyway, and Steelers DL Cameron Heyward knows they need to exploit […]

Pittsburgh is slowly becoming a quarterback rehab center, where struggling signal callers leave their worries, and former teams, behind to become a much more confident QB. Russell Wilson and Justin Fields looked far more comfortable with the Steelers than they did with the Broncos and Bears, respectively, and now it appears one ESPN analyst believes Pittsburgh could add one more name to this list come the 2025 offseason.

QB Daniel Jones of the New York Giants has seemingly fallen out of the team’s aspirations for their long-term future, with backup QB Tommy DeVito being named the team’s starter by Head...

Mike Tomlin is the longest-tenured head coach in the NFL, which is part of the reason his winning-season streak is so impressive. With him in charge, the Steelers have never had more losses than wins. His winning-season streak has become one of the most iconic fun facts regarding the league. However, some argue that the […]

Player: CB Cory Trice Jr. Stock Value: Down Reasoning: Despite practicing in full all week, the Steelers opted not to activate CB Cory Trice Jr. for tonight’s game. The second-year man will have to wait one more week to make his return from injury. Given his practice status from this week, his return next week […]

One year ago today, the Pittsburgh Steelers officially fired OC Matt Canada. In 44 games as offensive coordinator, Canada’s Steelers scored 30-plus points twice, and only once more than 30. And their lone game with more than 30 points came in a loss—as did their 30-point game. Not one single time did they produce 400 […]
