Latest news and updates about the Steelers
One rival executive felt vindicated after watching the Pittsburgh Steelers and quarterback Aaron Rodgers slump to a 20-3 defeat at the hands of the New England Patriots.
The Pittsburgh Steelers went outside their normal modus operandi to hire offensive-minded head coach Mike McCarthy, hoping to usher in a new era for a side of the ball that has struggled for years. Instead, the offense looks worse than ever, raising serious questions about where this high-expectations team goes from here. CBS Sports’ Kyle […]
The Patriots don’t believe DK Metcalf had a fun time going against Christian Gonzalez, but the Pro Bowl cornerback did. Coming off a massive new contract, Gonzalez drew the one-on-one assignment this week against the Steelers’ top wide receiver. While Metcalf helped the cause with a couple drops, New England accomplished its goal with that strategy. “I had a fun matchup. I mean, it’s always fun seeing their best guy and just going out there and competing”, Gonzalez said after New England’s 20-...

After Sunday’s 20-3 loss, HC Mike McCarthy took the blame for the Steelers’ struggles—undeservedly, Aaron Rodgers seemed to suggest. While his offense could barely put points up on the board, it wasn’t McCarthy’s fault, his quarterback said. Of course, both quarterbacks and head coaches always absorb blame whether warranted or otherwise. In this case, there […]
Player: DK Metcalf Stock Value: Down Reasoning: There are probably few players in the NFL who are struggling more than DK Metcalf is right now just two games into the season. He already has numerous drops, the specific number depending on who you ask. The bottom line is, despite a bounty of opportunities, he isn’t making plays. To put things in perspective, DK Metcalf is struggling enough that we’re not even talking about Joey Porter Jr. right now. That could be the focus today if the Steelers...

[…] The post Drake London Gets Into Heated Confrontation With Fan After Humiliating Week 2 Loss appeared first on EssentiallySports .
When Christian Gonzalez first saw the Pittsburgh Steelers on the Week 2 schedule, he knew it meant one thing: D.K. Metcalf. On Sunday, that became reality. In the New England Patriots’ 20-3 win over the Steelers, Gonzalez followed Metcalf almost anywhere he went on the Gillette Stadium field. The two were matched up for 34 […]
Aaron Rodgers hasn’t been perfect, Mike McCarthy knows, but neither has his supporting cast, including his offensive line. While his receivers are not making plays—often dropping balls—the pass protection has limited his effectiveness through two games. This may be the single biggest thing that has to change on offense, the Steelers head coach suggested after […]
After an ugly but at times promising season-opening win over the Atlanta Falcons, any Steelers’ momentum ground to a screeching halt after a 20-3 loss to the New England Patriots on the road in Week 2. As always, there are plenty of takeaways to be had: 1. The Steelers need an offensive line fix You […]
The New England Patriots got their first win of the season in their first home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in Foxboro.

What is wrong with the Steelers’ offense? Through two games, the Steelers have scored two touchdowns, and the offense provided only one, the other by T.J. Watt. In fact, they have scored a total of 23 points, of which the offense is responsible for 16. After scoring 20 in the opener—including a pick-six—they managed just three points yesterday. But offense is the specialty of new Steelers HC Mike McCarthy, so what’s going on? At least on paper, almost everything should be an improvement from l...
