AFC North football is tight this year. The defense has started to look like Pittsburgh again and the quarterback is still settling in, which leaves the Steelers hovering around the playoff cut. As the schedule gets heavier, the futures screen often says more about this team than one good or bad Sunday.

Where the Steelers Stand as the Schedule Tightens

The Steelers keep living in that space between belief and impatience. Some weeks they punch first and control the line of scrimmage. Other weeks the offense moves, stalls on third down and hands momentum back. It fits the season...

Welcome to the Steelers Afternoon Drive, our new daily podcast featuring all the latest Steelers news and analysis.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers.

On today’s episode, we discuss the team’s victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Is the safety duo of Kyle Dugger & Jalen Ramsey here to stay? Did this game change your mind on how to feel about the team moving forward? Where did things go wrong for the offense to only put up 27 points despite 6 turnovers? What was and wasn’t sustainable about what we saw?

Let’s go for another Steelers Afternoon...

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense was the star of the team’s Week 9 win over the Indianapolis Colts. That unit had its best game of the season. However, it didn’t put points on the board. The Steelers’ offense also deserves credit for not wasting the opportunities the defense provided. While it wasn’t an explosive day offensively, […]

Things went very well for the Pittsburgh Steelers defensively in Week 9 action against the Indianapolis Colts. The Steelers forced six turnovers, and the offense turned those turnovers into 24 points. That resulted in a 27-20 win at Acrisure Stadium, which wasn’t as close as the final score indicates. Pittsburgh came out looking to make […]

In the process of building their roster, the Pittsburgh Steelers wanted to win games through the strength of their defense. As long as the offense took care of the ball and took advantage of field position, the Steelers would love their chances. Through much of the first seven games, that wasn’t the case. However, Sunday’s […]

The clock is ticking on the NFL trade deadline, and the Pittsburgh Steelers are at a crossroads. A bold move could push them past fringe contender status, but a misstep might burn key 2026 draft assets and jeopardize their search for a franchise quarterback. Is there really a need for another wide receiver? That’s been […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t look like the team people thought they would be for much of this season. While the Steelers are usually defined by their defense, their offense has carried them more often this season. However, that changed in Week 9. The Indianapolis Colts had the best offense in the league, and the Steelers […]

The Miami Dolphins have been open to trading five-time Pro Bowl safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, and there has been interest from multiple teams, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz.

Miami already traded edge rusher Jaelan Phillips to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday morning for a third-round pick. Star wide receiver Jaylen Waddle could be on the move, too. With general manager Chris Grier fired last week after the team’s 2-7 start, it seems to be a fire sale in Miami.

With the Steelers trading Fitzpatrick to Miami this offseason, a reunion in Pittsburgh is not possible unless Fitzpatrick is cut by...

The Pittsburgh Steelers snapped their two-game losing streak in impressive fashion, upsetting the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. For the second time this season, the Steelers forced at least five turnovers, which was obviously a massive reason for the win.

The Steelers got a huge win on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts in a game that featured six takeaways by their defense. They now get set to head across the country to face the Chargers in Los Angeles on Sunday Night Football.

While the Steelers are coming off their biggest win of the season, they are unsurprisingly the underdogs in this game. Per FanDuel Sportsbook, Pittsburgh is a three-point dog to the Chargers. Seeing that they are the road team and making the long trip, this feels like a fair spread between two of the AFC’s top teams in terms...
