The Pittsburgh Steelers are trying to focus on getting back some momentum after their 24-9 win over the Cleveland Browns that quelled Pittsburgh's four-game losing streak. Sunday, the defense looked stellar, and, on offense, running back Le’Veon Bell lit up the Browns' defense for 146 rushing yards — he also had 55 receiving yards. But Bell hasn’t had many 100-plus rushing games this season (he did miss the first the first three games of the season with a drug-related suspension). So, ... Read More
Even if Steelers beat Browns, Tomlin is still on hot seat
The Pittsburgh Steelers are currently riding a four-game losing streak. On Sunday, they'll look to snap it when they head to FirstEnergy Stadium to face the Cleveland Browns. The Browns, with their 0-10 record, should — on paper — be an easy win for the Steelers. Ben Roethlisberger has handed plenty of losses to the Browns and, earlier this week, he admitted he can’t list all the names of the Cleveland quarterbacks he’s faced. So if Pittsburgh gets a win against the Browns and the Steelers ... Read More
Grades: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Dallas Cowboys
The Pittsburgh Steelers are now riding a four-game losing streak after their 35-30 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. On the other side of things, Dallas won its eighth-straight game. The Steelers had a chance to win the game, especially after going up near the end of the fourth quarter. However, the defense faltered once again, letting Ezekiel Elliott run all over them and score a touchdown with nine seconds left. Sunday's loss wasn’t as negative as the one to the Baltimore Ravens in ... Read More

Ezekiel Elliott says Steelers are best team Cowboys have played
The Pittsburgh Steelers (4-5) may have lost a tight game to the Dallas Cowboys (8-1), but running back Ezekiel Elliott had nothing but nice things to say about the Steelers, calling them “the best team we've played.” In a postgame interview with Fox Sports, Elliott said, “I think they're the best team we've played this year. ... They played well, they played really well. They're a very tough front. They're very physical, controlled the line of scrimmage a lot of the time. It comes down to who ... Read More
Steelers lose to Cowboys in 35-30 thriller
With 42 seconds left in the game, the Pittsburgh Steelers led the Dallas Cowboys 30-29. But then Ezekiel Elliott happened, and Steelers fans got to see just why the buzz surrounding him is so justified. With nine seconds left, Elliott rushed up the middle 32 yards for a touchdown, giving Dallas the 35-30 win at Heinz Field in what was undoubtedly one of the best NFL games this season. The win was the seventh straight for the Cowboys (8-1). A week after a rough outing versus the ... Read More
Steelers’ wideouts need to step up vs. Dallas
Through eight games, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown is averaging a little over 84 yards per game. And he has over 100 yards in just three of those games — against Washington (126 yards), the Philadelphia Eagles (140 yards) and the New England Patriots (106 yards). The rest of the Steelers’ wide receiving corps hasn’t fared much better. Pittsburgh’s wideouts have been riddled with injury — Markus Wheaton (shoulder), Eli Rogers (toe) and Darrius Heyward-Bey (foot) will all ... Read More
How should the Steelers contain Prescott and Elliott?
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a tendency to show rookie quarterbacks a stern welcome to the NFL — just look at what they did to Andy Dalton and Johnny Manziel in each's first year as a pro. In particular, linebacker James Harrison gave the two a lesson they’ll likely never forget. On Sunday, the Steelers will host another rookie quarterback, Dak Prescott, when he comes to Heinz Field with his Dallas Cowboys. While there had been rumors swirling that longtime Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo would ... Read More
Steelers are the true “America’s Team”
When the Cowboys first came into existence, and then became relevant they were titled “America’s Team.” They received that title because of being on TV so much, and they had such a following all over the country. But now a days you ask the question of who America’s team is, you might get a different answer. A lot of people now believe that America’s new team is the one and only Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers have been a popular team since the 70’s when they won most of their Super Bowls. ... Read More
2012 Steelers A Perfect Example of “Any Given Sunday”
The saying "any given Sunday" is well known around the NFL. It's basic meaning is that any given Sunday any team can beat any other team and for the most part it is true. Every year in the NFL there are good teams and bad teams, but the one thing that people fail to remember at times is that every player in the NFL is a pro-football player and was a stand-out player in college. Through the history of NFL football there have only been two teams that have ever lost every game during the regular ... Read More
