-B- There are a few excellent mock Steelers drafts up over in the fanposts at BTSC. There’s an ideal draft that has the Steelers taking NT Dontari Poe from Memphis in the first round, a name you had better get used to hearing over the next few months. Another one has Pittsburgh going with Stanford […]

Just a couple of days after Bruce Arians’ retirement, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has learned that Arians was told the team would not be renewing his contract and then decided to retire. Arians had told several members of the staff that he was planning on returning for 2012 and head coach Mike Tomlin wanted him to […]

Today is a very sad day in Pennsylvania. Black Shoe Diaries summed up my thoughts and feelings today better than I ever could:  Joe Paterno would always be there for us too, as an unlikely combination of Fred Rogers and fellow Brooklynite Vince Lombardi. His hair would always be dark and his eyeglasses comically thick. […]

  This is probably the worst thing anyone in Steeler Nation could have asked for. Instead of the battle of the loveable underdogs in Texans vs Broncos, we get the Ratbirds and the… Gay…triots. Something. This game is going to suck because no matter who wins, Steeler fans lose. If you decide to even watch […]

God is good.. thank u all 4 the love and support just sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers — Derrick Williams (@DWheelz12)

And on the 18th day of January in the year 2012, the heavens opened up to Earth and angels sang out in celebration:  The Steelers coaching staff could undergo its first major change in the Mike Tomlin era because offensive coordinator Bruce Arians might not return in 2012, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has learned. Arians, 57, […]

Steelers’ president Art Rooney II had an excellent interview this afternoon and provided tons of insight into the Steelers upcoming offseason and 2012 season. One of the biggest nuggets he revealed was that his father Dan is expected to return stateside after serving one term as the US ambassador to Ireland. Dan Rooney is expected […]

There aren’t many positives to come out of the Steelers dismal loss last weekend at Denver, but one of them is that I can now enjoy the rest of the playoff games without any stress. Every game the Steelers play in January takes at least a year or two off of my life and I’m […]

There is so much to discuss this week we decided to do a podcast. The very knowledgable Ian from The Steelers n’at joined us as well. Topics include the Steelers stunning loss in Denver, Hines Ward’s future, Tim Tebow, best and worst moments of 2011 and more 

And just like that, the season is over. For as much as everyone wants to be an expert, us here included, the playoffs are unpredictable. After all, who expected Tim Tebow to come out and get a triple digit passer rating? Who thought that the loss of Ryan Clark would make the whole defensive backfield […]

In case you didn’t hear, the Steelers are the fifth seed in the AFC playoffs, and they are traveling to Denver on Sunday. This means a date with Tim Tebow and the Broncos (but a clandestine date, nothing Tebow’s parents wouldn’t approve of). Will the Steelers be able to shut down Tebow’s mystifying ability to […]

I read on Twitter earlier today that 6 teams this season have 12 or more wins – Green Bay, New England, New Orleans, San Francisco, Baltimore and Pittsburgh. That mark ties the NFL record for the most 12+ win teams in a season. All of these teams are excellent and I wouldn’t want feel confident if Pittsburgh played […]

There’s no point in recapping everything that happened in yesterday’s game. Here’s what you need to know: The Patriots won. They get the #1 seed. Baltimore won. They hold on to the #2 seed. The Steelers were powerless to change their seeding after all and remain in the 5th spot. The Denver Broncos somehow won […]
