This season has been a roller-coaster for the Pittsburgh Steelers so far. They’ve played four games, and they’re 2-2, but it’s still tough to say what their true identity is.

Analyst Sees ‘Slumlords Of Slop Town’ Steelers Beating Colts In Ugly Game

With Joey Porter Jr. gone and Jamel Dean’s status unclear, the Steelers brought in more cornerbacks. Will they play on Sunday?
