My final Pittsburgh Steelers thoughts as the team travels to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals. 1. SEEING A FAMILIAR FACE When the Bengals offense takes the field, a player known as “Joe Cool” will be under center, but not the one that was expected back in August.

Six weeks into the season the Pittsburgh Steelers are sitting pretty. They’re 4-1 with the second-best record in the AFC. And the rest of their division is in bad shape. Injuries have seriously hurt both the Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens, leaving the Steelers with a clear path to the playoffs. As a result, Chris […]
When it comes to evaluating a player, everyone has their own personal preferences. Take Aaron Rodgers for example. Just by watching the games, it’s hard to be unhappy with the way he’s led the Steelers’ offense.

Chris Boswell picked up all 9 of the Steelers’ points while the Browns snuck in a field goal of their own before halftime. Overall, the Steelers’ defense has dominated the day. The offense has done some nice […]
UPDATE: The team quickly ruled Killebrew out for the rest of the game. That’s not a good sign for the potential severity of the injury. Steelers senior director of communication Burt Lauten tweeted that Killebrew is out for the remainder of the game. #Steelers S Miles Killebrew suffered a knee injury and is OUT for the […]

When Jerome Bettis came to Pittsburgh in 1996, it was a fresh start, the beginning of a new chapter in a city known for its toughness and blue-collar grit. Bettis wasn’t an NFL rookie, but he was just starting his journey with the Steelers. And the offseason after he rushed for 1,431 yards but injured […]
