Pittsburgh’s Kryptonite for RG3 – Dick Lebeau and a Wet Football?
Posted on 30 Oct 2012 by Rob Stroup.
The Pittsburgh Steelers scored at will in the first half to run out to a lead they would not relinquish against the Washington Redskins. Pittsburgh notched an important 27-12 victory to raise its record to 4-3, within one game of AFC North division leader Baltimore Ravens. It was an increasingly soggy day as a light misty rain fell throughout the game. This may have had an effect on Washingt...

Steelers Hoping to Avoid Trap Game in Music City
Posted on 11 Oct 2012 by Rob Stroup.
Pittsburgh is heading to Nashville for a Thursday night prime time contest against the Tennessee Titans. Pittsburgh and Tennessee used to be divisional foes when the Titans were the Houston Oilers, but now they play less often and this is no longer considered a rivalry game. The Steelers have an all-time mark of 41-29 against the Titans franchise (34-19 vs. Houston, but only 7-10 since the m...

Suisham Kicks Pittsburgh to .500 Mark
Posted on 7 Oct 2012 by Rob Stroup.
It may have been ugly, but a team’s win total at the end of the season does not get extra credit for style points. The Pittsburgh Steelers can be thankful for that fact as they edged the Philadelphia Eagles 16-14. Pittsburgh continued to shoot itself in the foot with costly penalties (9 penalties for 106 yards) and allowing two important fourth down conversions. In a game where Pittsburgh...

Keystone State Battle
Posted on 5 Oct 2012 by Rob Stroup.
Both the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles have experienced some good fortune at the start of this season. Upon first glance, Steeler Nation may disagree with me. But, consider this – Pittsburgh does not travel west of the Rockies for the duration of the 2012 campaign. The furthest west they travel is to Dallas and Tennessee. The Steelers should be thankful for the early...

Black Hole Swallows Steelers
Posted on 23 Sep 2012 by Rob Stroup.
The Pittsburgh Steelers dropped to 1-2 on the season after suffering a 34-31 defeat at the hands of the Oakland Raiders. Pittsburgh's offense was clicking thanks to its wide open passing game, however the hapless defensive performance allowed the Raiders to score on their final five drives to score the game's final 13 points. Oakland's only lead came as the final gun sounded when Sebastian ...

Steelers Game-by-Game Predictions
Posted on 5 Sep 2012 by Rob Stroup.
Now that the NFL season is 24 hours away, here is my fearless game-by-game forecast for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Week 1 Sunday, September 9 at Denver 8:20 PM Ryan Mundy is an adequate replacement for Ryan Clark for one game, but the new sheriff (Peyton Manning) in town takes advantage of the Steelers’ early season injuries and Mike Wallace’s unfamiliarity with the offense. Denver 24, Pittsb...

Pittsburgh Steelers Training Camp Notes
Posted on 1 Aug 2012 by Rob Stroup.
As we get ready for the 2012-2013 season, I'll pass along to you brief news and notes from Latrobe. Due to the new Collective Bargaining Agreement rules, the first three days of training camp amounted to walkthroughs because the team has a limited number of padded practices. Then, they had the day off Monday. Receivers' routes were more like jogging without the jog. It is considerably les...

Pittsburgh Steelers Running Back Situation
Posted on 22 Jul 2012 by Rob Stroup.
How many of you cringed when Rashard Mendenhall went down with an obvious knee injury in what proved to be a meaningless season finale against the rival Cleveland Browns? It turned out to be an ACL tear, which as most football fans know, requires surgery and 8-12 months of rehabilitation before a player can return. Mendenhall is pushing to make his return some time this season, perhaps as e...

Browns leave it all on the field…including Colt’s Brain
Posted on 9 Dec 2011 by Bradley Ross.
The Steelers are clearly a better team than the Browns. If the talent levels were even in this game, the Browns definitely come away with a win. The Browns played with the type of heart we have rarely seen from them since the firing of Eric Mangini. Yet, they are still at least a couple drafts away from seriously competing with the Steelers and the Ravens on a regular basis. The D ha...

Fantasy Week 5 Waivers
Posted on 4 Oct 2011 by David Willow.
Another week another injury, but thankfully this week's group of unfortunates haven't continued the trend of season ending injuries. The most notable injuries have been to Andre Johnson, who looked to have a major injury to his leg, but later reports suggested it was minor hamstring injury that will keep him out for around 2-3 weeks. The Steelers' Rashard Mendenhall was also hindered by a hamst...

Posted on 23 Sep 2011 by David Willow.
Week 3 is almost upon us, and it's been another week of shake ups in the world of fantasy football. Each week is a testament to the fluidity of the game, and if your an owner who isn't on the ball with updates and match ups, you could be left behind early in the season in the dreaded 0-3 hole that owners cringe at the thought of climbing out of. So let's delve into the Start'ems for week 3. Q...
