So…let’s talk about Sunday. With their frustrating loss to the Chicago Bears, the Steelers not only lost the AFC North lead, but also tumbled out of playoff position altogether. If the season ended today, Mike Tomlin and crew would be left crooning whatever the NFL postseason’s equivalent is to “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.” With […]

It was another disappointment for the Pittsburgh Steelers as they fell 31-28 to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The Steelers started strong and were able to force Bears quarterback Caleb Williams into uncomfortable situations early, as T.J. Watt strip-sacked the young signal caller early in the game, but things flipped dramatically in the second half. […]

Here are your Pens Points for this Wednesday morning… How effective can forward Tommy Novak be for the Pittsburgh Penguins? It appears, under the hood at least, he has some talent to drive play and score goals, but none of that has really translated in a black and gold sweater since the team acquired him […]
The Bears continued their winning ways on Sunday, defeating the Steelers 31-28 in a tight matchup that saw Chicago improve to 8-3 in front of their home crowd. As the close score and high-scoring point would leave one to believe, it wasn’t a flawless performance from the Bears by any means in Week 12. The […]
The Chicago Bears moved to 8-3 on Sunday, knocking off the Pittsburgh Steelers at Soldier Field. Caleb Williams, a dynamic rookie class, and Dennis Allen’s never-say-never defense were the story.

Steelers defensive tackle Daniel Ekuale has been suspended five games for violating the NFL’s performance-enhancing substances policy, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac reported Tuesday. Ekuale is currently on injured reserve following an ACL injury he suffered against the Green Bay Packers. He’ll still be able to serve his suspension while on IR, but he’ll miss […]
I hope Montez Sweat gets serious consideration for NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for his efforts in the Chicago Bears’ Week 12 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Sweat stuffed the stat sheet to the tune of 2 sacks, 3 solo tackles, 3 tackles-for-loss, 1 forced fumble, 1 fumble recovery, and 2 quarterback hits. Heck, I think Montez Sweat would have been a virtual lock for NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors had he picked up a third sack, but Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolp...
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Cornell Powell to their practice squad, the team announced on Tuesday. Powell was drafted in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Clemson, where he had a terrific senior season. He caught 53 passes for 882 yards and seven touchdowns in […]

With one game left in November, the Chicago Bears are 8-3. That alone is worth celebrating. Don’t let the opponents’ records bring down the celebration. Don’t let the haters and box score-watchers bring you down. The Bears are in first place in the NFC North. The other teams aren’t because they haven’t won enough games. […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers fell to 6-5 after a tough loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The loss dropped them out of first place in the AFC North — as well as playoff seeding entirely — with the once 1-5 Baltimore Ravens seizing control of the division for the first time this season. As Mike […]
When you watch Tommy Novak play, it is not that difficult to understand why the Pittsburgh Penguins had an interest in acquiring him and why they want him to be a part of this team. There is clearly talent here. There is skill to his game, and I think it could work in a variety […]
The Buffalo Bills (7-4) are on the verge of being on the outside looking in when it comes to the AFC playoff picture, and one week after their offensive line was bullied by a ferocious Houston Texans’ front four, the task won’t get any easier when the Bills travel to play the Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5) […]
At 7-4, the Buffalo Bills are now fighting for their playoff lives thanks to yet another untimely loss to an AFC playoff hopeful in the Houston Texans. Buffalo doesn’t have a lot of room for error left if they hope to make some noise in the postseason, and that means taking care of business a […]
The Penguins will try to snap their November slump by calling up one of their top prospects for his NHL debut.

Sunday’s loss to the Chicago Bears marked a low point in the season for the Pittsburgh Steelers. After a big home win against the Bengals in Week 11, the Steelers dropped back down to earth in the Windy City, only scoring 21 offensive points against one of the league’s worst defenses, and allowing 31. Now […]
The word on the street is that the Pittsburgh Pirates are going to be active in free agency. Whether it’s spending $30-40 million, having interest in Josh Naylor, or putting together a roster surrounding Paul Skenes that can win meaningful games, the Pirates need to do whatever it takes to win. As Skenes said after […]
The Steelers added defensive tackle Anthony Goodlow to their practice squad, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Monday, citing Goodlow’s agent Hector Ruiz. Pittsburgh hasn’t officially announced the move or any corresponding roster transactions yet. Pittsburgh does currently have an open spot on its practice squad. Goodlow went undrafted in 2024 out of Oklahoma State University. […]
The Chicago Bears caught a break when Aaron Rodgers’ left wrist prevented him from suiting up for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
