RB Jaylen Warren certainly did not have a lackluster game against the Bengals in the Steelers’ 30-27 upset win. Warren carried the ball a […]

Motions, formation changes, condensed sets, a lot of changing around […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers left Foxboro last Sunday after the offense turned in a putrid performance against the New England Patriots.

Fast forward to this Sunday, and the offensive line was a big part […]

Before Cris Collinsworth became the voice of Sunday Night Football analysis, he was a pretty good football player in his own right. Collinsworth spent eight seasons as a receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals, made three Pro Bowls, and played in two Super Bowls. Sure, he never won a ring, but that’s a résumé most former…

The Steelers instead rolled with rookie Daylen Everette and Jamel Dean at outside cornerback against one of the NFL’s best wide receiver tandems. Was Samuel benched for poor play? Did he […]
Well that sucked. After a Week 2 that saw them get their first win and look fairly stifling on defense against a Steelers team that just hung 30 on the Cincinnati Bengals, the Patriots went down to Jacksonville and laid an absolute egg. Just a listless, lifeless, lame performance all around. It’s still early in […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers offense looked significantly better in the win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. The Steelers were finally able to run the ball consistently, protected Aaron Rodgers for the most part, and spread the wealth around.

In the days following the embarrassing road loss to the New England Patriots in Week 2, all the talk surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers was that it was the beginning of the end already in the Mike McCarthy era.

The Steelers’ 1-1 start to begin the Mike McCarthy era raised a lot of questions. He believes they answered some yesterday. For one thing, in their 30-27 win over the 2-0 Bengals, they showed they can beat a good team. And they also showed that they can score points—even when their defense isn’t great. Heading […]
