Three up, three down: Steelers vs. Giants
So much for the demise of the Pittsburgh Steelers. After a rough four-game stretch put the season on the precipice, the Steelers (7-5) put together their third-straight win and thoroughly dominated one of the hottest teams in the league in the New York Giants (8-4) by a final score of 24-14. The win was paced by a defense that has allowed just four touchdowns over that three game span, and the win put the team in a tie with the Baltimore Ravens for the division lead. With the Buffalo Bills ... Read More
Steelers put on commanding performance in win over Giants
While it might be the Pittsburgh Penguins who play in PPG Paints Arena, it was the Pittsburgh Steelers who painted the field Sunday afternoon — specifically with the colors green and brown. That is, tight end Ladarius Green and wide receiver Antonio Brown. Green had the first 100-yard-plus game of his career (110 yards) and had a touchdown (his first in the black and gold), and Brown added a touchdown and had six receptions for 54 yards. The two receivers helped propel Pittsburgh to a ... Read More
Grade: Steelers vs. Colts
The Pittsburgh Steelers raked in their second-straight win, beating the Indianapolis Colts 28-7 on Thanksgiving night. Quarterback: Ben Roethlisberger has been shaky in recent weeks, but, against a depleted Colts secondary, he looked like the MVP of the NFL. Roethlisberger completed 14/20 passes for 221 yards and three touchdowns — he didn’t throw a single interception. Late in the fourth quarter, head coach Mike Tomlin decided not to let Roethlisberger embarrass the Colts any longer, so ... Read More
Three up, three down: Steelers vs. Colts
On Thanksgiving, Pittsburgh Steelers fans had a lot to be thankful for in their team's 28-7 victory over the Indianapolis Colts.

Steelers’ tight ends need to step up against the Colts
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
Grades: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cleveland Browns
The Pittsburgh Steelers snapped a four-game losing streak with their 24-9 win Sunday over the Cleveland Browns. Granted, it was the Browns, but, for the Steelers right now, a win's a win. The Steelers are now tied with the Baltimore Ravens at the top of the AFC North with 5-5 records. The Bengals are behind those two teams with a 3-6-1 record, and the Browns are in last place (of both the division and the NFL) with an 0-11 record. The Steelers will have their second away game in a row ... Read More
Three up, three down: Steelers vs. Browns
The Pittsburgh Steelers found themselves in an unusual situation when they faced they Cleveland Browns at FirstEnergy Stadium in cold, blustery conditions yesterday afternoon: Pittsburgh had lost its last four games. It's not often the Steelers are mired in a four-game swoon, so it goes without saying they were desperate to get a win. And there's no better way to get back on track than to play the winless Browns. Thanks to a stifling defense and a workman-like effort from the offense, ... Read More
Tomlin doubles down on “questionable” officiating in Monday’s presser
A day after calling the officiating in Sunday’s game “questionable,” Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin doubled down on his statement, saying Monday in a press conference that he was “just kind of disturbed by some of it.” “It’s a natural human response,” Tomlin said. “I know (the refs) got a tough job. I respect the job that they have to do. But we’ve got tough jobs, as well.” Sunday, against the Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh was penalized eight times for 70 yards. Tomlin appeared ... Read More
