Each week, the Pittsburgh Steelers are solely focused on their next opponent. Even though their schedule looks brutal, Mike Tomlin has made it clear that he doesn’t care about any of that. He’s simply preparing his team to win the next game. However, that doesn’t mean their schedule isn’t going to be taxing on their […]

Before this season began, it felt like the Pittsburgh Steelers had more doubters than at any time in recent history. More people picked them to finish last than first in the AFC North. Through 11 weeks of play, they’ve silenced a lot of criticism. Much of the credit for that should be given to Mike […]

The post Steelers Afternoon Drive: Don’t Overlook the Browns appeared first on Steelers Now.

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 being without Cory Trice Jr. again against the Cleveland Browns. We also discuss the weather that it looks like the teams will have to deal with and who it benefits. Mike Tomlin hasn’t been good on TNF and especially against the division. Why is that and do we expect that to...

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense and special teams appear ready to compete deep into the playoffs. In some ways, the offense does, too, but there is one glaring issue: they have been unable to convert yards and lengthy drives into touchdowns. The red zone offense has been miserable all season, especially since Russell Wilson entered the […]

While offenses and defenses usually get all of the shine, special teams remain one of the most important facets of the football. Bad special teams play can really hurt a team, and conversely, good special teams play can be the difference in a win that very well could have been a loss. The latter is […]

Even in his retirement, former Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger continues to show Cleveland why he still owns the Browns. On his podcast, Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger, his co-host Spencer Te’o asked the legendary Pittsburgh QB to share his thoughts on the Browns-Saints Week 11 results.

Roethlisberger quickly gave credit to Browns QB Jameis Winston for nearly throwing for 400 yards but immediately shifted to roasting the Cleveland defense: “That sounds great, but I think the Browns’ defense gave up 200-plus, almost 300 yards rushing, made Taysom Hill look like Bo Jackson.”

Big Ben continued his roast of Cleveland, stating that...

This week, they will have to play on short rest against the Cleveland Browns (2-8) on Thursday Night Football. I spoke with Chris Pokorny of Dawgs By Nature to get a better idea of what to expect in this week’s matchup.

You can read my questions and his answers below:

**1. The season hasn’t gone how Browns fans would have wanted. From the outside looking in, the team seems...

Having four solid rookie contributors at this point of the season is about right, so it is great that the Pittsburgh Steelers have stabilized and recovered from some injuries to return to that level of contribution from their rookie class. Two rookies had their best games of the season and couldn’t have picked a better […]

Anytime the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens get together, it’s a big-time matchup. Anytime the division lead is on the line, the stakes are raised all the more. But Sunday’s game and win meant more to LB Patrick Queen than anyone else inside Acrisure Stadium, something Mike Tomlin embraced before kickoff and after the game. […]

Lamar Jackson looked like he was sailing toward his third MVP award, but then he ran into the Pittsburgh Steelers. After an underwhelming performance in Week 11, questions are being raised about why Jackson seems to struggle against the Steelers. However, linebacker Kyle Van Noy, his teammate, doesn’t believe Jackson played poorly in the Ravens’ […]
