Aaron Rodgers has said that this will be his final NFL season. That puts a little more pressure on the Pittsburgh Steelers to finally have some playoff success. They haven’t won a postseason game in almost 10 years, even though they haven’t had a losing season since 2003. Rodgers returned because he believes Pittsburgh can […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers upgraded one of their biggest weaknesses last season, their wide receivers, this offseason, trading for Michael Pittman Jr. and drafting Germie Bernard. Things got so bad that they added some veteran wideouts midway through the season. That included Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who signed with the Dallas Cowboys this offseason. Valdes-Scantling recently revealed that […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers traded for Michael Pittman Jr. this offseason to finally fill their void at No. 2 wide receiver. ESPN’s Bill Barnwell has major doubts that Pittman will make a substantial impact, however.

“It’s a good fit for Aaron Rodgers,” Barnwell said recently on ESPN’s NFL Live. “I don’t know that it’s a good fit for the Steelers’ offense. Aaron Rodgers last year threw the shortest average pass of anybody in football, the only guy under six air yards per attempt a year ago. Michael Pittman, 61st out of 68 qualifying receivers in terms of air yards per target....

The late great John Madden used to say that if you have two quarterbacks, you have none. Meaning that in a quarterback room, there will always naturally be a leader in the clubhouse that the team gravitates towards.

The Pittsburgh Steelers made it clear and evident that they believe Drew Allar can be that next franchise quarterback when they drafted him in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. In doing so, they set themselves up for an interesting summer that will conclude with a decision being made at quarterback. Will they keep veteran backup Mason Rudolph or go...

Coming out of Penn State in the 2026 NFL Draft, quarterback Drew Allar was one of the most divisive prospects at the most important position in sports. He has all the tools teams tend to look for in a franchise quarterback with great size, arm strength, functional mobility and athleticism to make plays off platform. […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers are running things back with Aaron Rodgers in 2026. However, they look different compared to last year. They’ve made some changes to their roster, and they’ve basically overhauled their coaching staff. Mike Tomlin is out, and Mike McCarthy is in. There’s hope those differences can help them break through the ceiling they’ve […]

If it wasn’t for injury concerns, Payton Wilson probably would have been selected higher than the third round back in 2024. And in his rookie year, he had a couple of huge plays that made the Pittsburgh Steelers feel like they got some good value in the young linebacker. Heading into 2025, the team hoped […]

Don’t expect new defensive coordinator Patrick Graham to be all-out celebrating in a circle of Pittsburgh Steelers defenders after each of the team’s 2026 takeaways. At 47 years old with plenty on his plate, his attention will be elsewhere. But Graham will play a critical role in making those splash plays happen, a responsibility he’s […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers had a developmental quarterback in their room already when they selected Drew Allar in the third round of last month’s 2026 NFL Draft. The now-former Penn State signal-caller has the intangibles to be a professional passer, but first-year head coach Mike McCarthy is stripping down his mechanics to the fundamentals this offseason.

Analyst Colin Cowherd is left scratching his head about the pick for another reason.

“There is something to be said about just having instincts,” Cowherd said Monday on “The Colin Cowherd Podcast.” “I remember years ago, people liked this Christian Hackenberg out of Penn State,...

As a general rule of thumb, offensive linemen don’t get the love and attention they’re often due. Ignored in a world of fantasy football and sports betting, it’s easy for them to be overlooked. NFL.com put together a list of the most underappreciated players on each AFC team, and Pittsburgh Steelers lineman Mason McCormick received […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers had to sit and watch as the hated rival Baltimore Ravens won Super Bowl XLVII in 2013. Veteran linebacker Ray Lewis, a longtime black and gold antagonist, was the heart and soul that John Harbaugh cast, despite being well past his feared prime.

Analyst Steve Palazzolo recalled that run and how defied logic for the then-37-year-old Lewis to drive his team in the way that he did.

“The one thing I brought up was the idea of the superstar player that can use everything as inspiration and motivation and everything,” Palazzolo said Monday on the “Check the...

Ben Roethlisberger is a Hall of Fame quarterback. That much is known by anyone who watched his 18-year career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The only question is the timing of Roethlisberger’s induction and whether or not he’s a first ballot Hall of Famer. By this time next offseason, that question will be answered. But with […]
