The Pittsburgh Steelers don't currently have any running backs under contract for the 2013 season. It is also rumored that they are looking for a feature back that can be a go to guy on offense. If they don't think that Jonathan Dwyer or Isaac Redman has what it takes to be that guy and if they don't want to re-sign Rashard Mendenhall then they will be forced to find a new running back this off-season. That means finding a player in free agency or in the 2013 NFL Draft. Mendenhall will become ... Read More
Steelers not afraid of Javis Jones over Neck History
Georgia outside linebacker Jarvis Jones was at one point considered the best defensive player in the draft. That stock has fallen a bit, but not because of Jones production. During the 2009 season when Jones was playing for USC he suffered a neck injury. He was diagnosed with spinal stenosis and was not cleared to play by his doctors at USC. Those doctors told him to retire from football, but Jones refused. He chose to transfer to Georgia and he was cleared to return to the field. After ... Read More

Double Yoi!
If you were to hear Myron Cope talking on the street, you would probably turn your head in shock that such a sound even existed. To describe Cope’s voice as nasally is almost a disservice to the word itself. It is a medical wonder that the man could even breathe. But in the broadcast booth, his voice was pure Pittsburgh poetry. His unmatched excitement; along with his borderline nonsensical catch phrases (To this day, I have no idea what “Feh” or “Yoi” mean.) have woven themselves into the ... Read More
LaMarr Woodley has Already Began Training in Arizona According to Ryan Clark

Could the Steelers land Stedman Bailey?
With Mike Wallace all but gone from the Steelers and Antonio Brown seemingly creating locker room problems, the Steelers' receivers are falling apart. With little to no cap room, it's doubtful that they will test the waters of free agency. And with bigger needs to worry about, they won't be taking a guy in the top two rounds. But when it comes time for the Steelers to pick up a wide receiver, a great one might still be left on the board. Stedman Bailey. I've personally watched Stedman Bailey ... Read More
Could Steve Breaston return to Pittsburgh with the Steelers?
So far during the off-season I have mentioned multiple times that the Steelers may have to dip into free agency for a few players this off-season. One position that could use an upgrade is wide receiver; especially with Mike Wallace almost guaranteed to leave as a free agent. Today the Kansas City Chiefs release receiver Steve Breaston. Breaston played for Todd Haley in Arizona and then followed him to the Chiefs. He is a prototypical slot receiver and has return abilities as well. During the ... Read More
Unnamed Teammate Calls out LaMarr Woodley for Poor Performance
According to Ron Cook of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette an unnamed player on the Pittsburgh Steelers roster called out LaMarr Woodley. Woodley had his second straight injury riddled season in 2012, but unlike 2011 when he was on the field he was ineffective. During the start of the 2011 season Woodley was being considered for the defensive player of the year award, but a serious hamstring injury plagued him for the rest of the year. 2012 was supposed to be Woodley's chance to come back from ...

Could Doug Legursky be Steelers starting center in 2013?
The Steelers are going to have to figure out their starting offensive line for 2013. Four of the five starters are already being projected. Those players are Marcus Gilbert, Mike Adams, David DeCastro, and Maurkice Pouncey. The only open position on the line is left guard which is the spot the Steelers will have to fill this off-season. Willie Colon started at left guard in 2012, but he is considered a potential cap casualty option for the Steelers who need to clear cap space this off-season. ... Read More
