5 mid to late round sleepers the Steelers should target

Much has already been written about who the Steelers will target in the first round of tonight’s draft. Most experts have zeroed in on Maurkice Pouncey, Kyle Wilson, and Mike Iupati as the three leading candidates. But what about the other six rounds? I’m admittedly no draft expert, but here are five guys who I’d […]

Trading Roethlisberger would be a mistake

Here’s the first article from our new writer – Michael Troy. He’s a long time Steeler fans and thinks the Steelers dealing Big Ben before, during or after this weekend’s draft would be a big time mistake.  – Bam I hope the rumors about the Steelers trading Ben Roethlisberger are false.  There is no way […]

Breaking: Holmes traded to Jets

ESPN 1050 in New York is saying the Steelers traded WR Santonio Holmes to the Jets for a 5th round pick in this year’s draft. Assuming this is true, here’s some off the cuff thoughts: This trade will be mostly judged off of Holmes’ production this season. He’s a UFA after this year and if […]

Let’s go Bucs: Some opening day baseball thoughts

2010 Steelers: Life under the scope

  Every few years, there’s a rash of shark attacks along the east coast here in the U.S.A. The most recent time sharks were particularly hungry was in 2001, which TIME dubbed the “Summer of the Shark.” I remember being afraid to go into the ocean that year because I was scared to death some […]

Time to move on?

I think I probably wouldn’t draft a quarterback in the first couple of rounds if I were running the Steelers — as football czar Kevin Colbert implied Sunday — but I definitely would add a developmental quarterback somewhere in rounds four through seven. And develop him quickly. – Peter King, MMQB Sounds like most of the […]

Troy Polamalu is the anti Ben Roethlisberger UPDATE: Foote’s back

If you’re like me, you’re already sick of the whole Ben Roethlisberger sexual assault incident that continues to play out in the media. Nobody will ever know exactly what happened in that Milledgeville, GA bathroom, but the whole thing just further clarifies one fact – Ben Roethlisberger is an idiot. As much as I love […]

BREAKING: Roethlisberger accused of sexual assault…again

Here we go again…no clue what to even think about this at this point. My only thought is that is curious that “they” waited to break the story until the first day of free agency, when everybody’s eyes are on the NFL. It’s also important to remember that no charges have been filed at this […]

Four things the Steelers can learn from Super Bowl XLIV

It wasn’t nearly as exciting as last year’s sixth ring for us Steeler fans, but last night’s Super Bowl was still pretty entertaining to watch. It’s hard for me to watch any Super Bowl game without thinking of what the Steelers can learn from the teams on the field. I’m sure almost all of the […]

Observations from championship weekend

In list form: 1. The best way to win in the NFL has evolved. Just a few years ago, you still won by having a suffocating defense and a ferocious running attack. In short, the best way to win a big NFL game was by running the ball and stopping the run. This is the […]
