Pittsburgh Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers need to stop waiting for Aaron Rodgers. Free agency opens March 11th. He told Pat McAfee there’s no contract offer, no deadline, nothing to debate. That’s not a man weighing his options. That’s a man enjoying his offseason while an entire NFL franchise idles in the parking lot. They’ve been here before....

Steelers hiring Mike McCarthy is proof they’re fine with 10-7 and a quick playoff exit, and I’m done pretending it’s a plan. This is the most Steelers thing the Steelers could do in 2026: dress up “same old” as “new leadership” and hope the fanbase shuts up because the guy’s from Pittsburgh. If you’re mad,...

If your “win now” team cannot score 10 points, what exactly are you winning? The Steelers just lost 13-6 to the Browns. They got a late drive inside the Browns 10 and still walked off with nothing. Aaron Rodgers went 21-for-39 for 168 yards, which is the statistical definition of “we were present.” And now...

I can already hear it. “A Steelers home playoff game is awesome.” “Be happy they won the North.” “Be happy they made the playoffs.” “Anything can happen in January.” Cool. I’m not doing that. If the Steelers host a playoff game, that’s nice. That’s progress. That’s better than traveling. That’s the kind of thing some...

Like clockwork, it’s that time of year again where we have the seemingly age old debate: Should the Steelers fire Mike Tomlin? In years past I have always erred on the side of keeping Tomlin, maybe mainly to troll my yinzer friends but at the end of the day I thought he was still a...

The Penguins tripped on Friday but responding with a stomping of the Nashville Predators on Sunday morning. Friday afternoon the Penguins came out with one of their least sharp performances of the season. Passes were not connecting crisply, offense was non-existent, and the defense was haphazard. Still, the Penguins were up 1-0 with about a...

The Penguins finished without a win this weekend, losing in a shootout on Saturday and blowing a 2-1 third period lead to LA on Sunday. All in all, I really don’t think it’s as bad as a winless weekend would suggest. I will go over some overarching themes in my thoughts below. I will wrap...

Stop apologizing for Mike Tomlin. Stop tweeting about loyalty and “he never has a losing season” like that is some kind of untouchable shield. This was supposed to be an all in year. Ownership spent big on defense. They traded and paid to overhaul the receiver room and “fix the culture.” They told everybody this...

The Cleveland Browns and Dillon Gabriel just got their teeth kicked in by the Pittsburgh Steelers, 23 to 9. This wasn’t one of those “closer than it looked” games either. From the first snap, the Browns looked lost, unprepared, and flat-out uninterested. Aaron Rodgers diced them up for 235 yards and two touchdowns while the...

Let’s just get right to it. The Baltimore Ravens got absolutely embarrassed today. The Texans walked into their house, kicked their feet up on the couch, raided the fridge, and beat them 44 to 10. That wasn’t football. That was a public undressing. It looked like a varsity squad scrimmaging against the local JV team....
