This is basically the formality of ending the preseason. All those guys whose names and numbers you didn’t bother learning got cut. The list: DB Damon Cromartie-Smith – Practice squad fodder; may get signed if a couple DBs get hurtDB Terrence Frederick – No idea who this guy isDB Josh Victorian – Had some interception […]

The final score of this game was 38-7 in favor of the Steelers. But the Steelers aren’t winners right now. Their projected starting right guard and first round draft pick, David DeCastro, was carted off the field with a knee injury in the first quarter. The Steelers may be forced to go into 2012 without […]

Take this article with a grain of salt; it is obviously meant to ruffle feathers. It’s a series on why every team sucks, so whatever. That isn’t the problem with this article. The problem is the woefully inaccurate picture it paints of modern-day Pittsburgh. LET’S BREAK THIS SH*T DOWN, EH? (jump; strong language inside) One […]

This post has nothing to do with Ike Taylor and Antonio Brown punching each other because who cares. Pirates baseball has distracted us from training camp and honestly there isn’t anything current worth talking about besides backup fullbacks. This month, Yahoo” Sports’ hockey blog, Puck Daddy, is running a feature called “The Essentials” in which […]

Knees don’t bend sideways. The Steelers’ starting fullback is going to miss the 2012 season with a torn ACL in his right knee. Not much you can take out of a preseason game, other than this is something you don’t want. Mike Adams and Jon Dwyer also got banged up, but their injuries aren’t presumed […]

There’s a good reason we don’t post very much for most of May-July. It’s because nothing happens in the NFL. We could stage a stakeout of Mike Wallace’s contract negotiations, but it’s been far more interesting to follow NHL free agency and the upstart Pittsburgh Pirates (that felt good to type). After that little bit […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers will report to training camp in Latrobe on July 25, 2012 – only 29 days from today. We’re taking a quick look at current and former Steelers as we countdown to football. Most underrated player in NFL history. All he did was tag punts down at the 1. Pictures of him almost […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers will report to training camp in Latrobe on July 25, 2012 – only 36 days from today. We’re taking a quick look at current and former Steelers as we countdown to football. What can you say about Jerome Bettis? One of the greatest power backs ever to play the game, Bettis spent […]

Caught this article on Twitter this morning. Basically, how realistic is it to envision American Football played internationally and ultimately in the Summer (or winter!) Olympics? In short, don’t hold your breath. Read More for reasons for and against, plus making fun of soccer. It isn’t impossible. American Football is actually played all over the […]

While this has felt like a quiet offseason for the Steelers (an early playoff exit never helps), the team has undergone some significant changes. Todd Haley will replace Bruce Arians as offensive coordinator. The offense’s heart and soul, Hines Ward, has elected to call it a career. It’s not like the team will be lost in the […]

This photo, apparently taken in a public restroom at the Steelers’ facility, features Isaac Redman sporting the Steelers’ latest money-making venture throwback uniform. It’s a replica of the 1934 Steelers, a team that went 40 freaking years before not being a laughing stock. We’re not sure if these are supposed to look more like bumble […]

Don’t even know what to say right now. Hines Ward was the ultimate Steeler. He leads the franchise in everything football-catching related by a lot. Can’t say we didn’t see it coming. We’ll have a better look back on Hines’ career in the coming days. 

The Steelers have cut veteran special teamers Bryant McFadden and Arnaz Battle. McFadden was making about $2.5 million, Battle about $1 million. Honestly, it was easy to forget McFadden was still on the team this past year. Battle was a replaceable special teamer. These aren’t blockbuster moves, but they’re the official start of roster changes […]

Notice that the title of this article is not “Why did Mike Tomlin hire Todd Haley.” Tomlin didn’t. If this were Tomlin’s decision, Bruce Arians would still be in town. No, this decision appears to have been made by Art Rooney II. Rooney has stated multiple times that he wants the Steelers to run the […]
