The Steelers' 20-3 loss to the Patriots was much uglier for the offense than the defense. There were pass protection issues that plagued the offense. But, there were also examples on both sides of the ball of the Steelers just getting beat outright.

The Pittsburgh Penguins have announced that center Ben Kindel has left Monday’s preseason game against the Buffalo Sabres due to a lower-body injury. Kindel left after the first period of Monday’s game. It’s unclear what was the cause of the injury, but he did crash into the net earlier in the period, and was somewhat slow to get up. That said, he did play out the rest of the period, so it’s possible it was a different injury that removed him from the game. At this point in time, there’s no wo...
Lineup The Penguins have a decent enough lineup for the first preseason game. Bryan Rust, Ben Kindel and Kris Letang are among the skaters dressed. Sergei Mursahov gets the start, with the plan to sub him out about halfway through to get Joel Blomqvist some game minutes too. Not much to say about the visiting […]

The Indianapolis Colts will likely have a tougher time moving the ball against the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense for next month’s matchup. Top receiver Alec Pierce is set to miss the game after aggravating a heel injury during Sunday night’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

By Gabriel Foley | at September 21, 2026 7:43 pm Pittsburgh Penguins forward Benjamin Kindel left the team’s Monday preseason game early with a lower-body injury, per a team announcement. Kindel played on a line with veteran wingers Andrei Kuzmenko and Bryan Rust throughout the first period. The trio combined for two shots in six shifts before Kindel’s exit. The Penguins elevated Connor Dewar and Tristan Broz in Kindel’s absence. His injury will be one to monitor as Pittsburgh’s 2026-27 campai...
The Pittsburgh Penguins’ star sophomore had his pre-season debut cut short. Ben Kindel exited Monday’s exhibition game against the Buffalo Sabres prior to the second period with a lower-body injury, the team announced. It’s unclear when Kindel suffered the injury. The 19-year-old is entering his second year with the Penguins after breaking into the league last season as an 18-year-old rookie. In 77 regular-season games, the Coquitlam, B.C. native had 17 goals and 35 points, tied for eighth amo...
It just shows you the urgency of Steelers week at Paycor Stadium. As Al Golden walked off the Reliant Stadium field Sunday with the biggest prize of his 19 games as the Bengals defensive coordinator, he looked like he was headed to a root canal instead of a locker room celebration. The 2-0 Bengals head to Pittsburgh Sunday (1 p.m.-Cincinnati’s Local 12), where the Steelers have amassed the only home winning percentage above 70% in the 57 seasons of the AFL-NFL merger. “I was on to Pittsburgh. ...
Kindel left after the first period of Monday’s exhibition match against the Sabres.
The Atlanta Falcons have had one of the most disastrous starts to the season, as the organization brutally lost 20-13 to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1, then lost 34-3 to the Carolina Panthers in Week 2.

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense was made to look helpless in Week 2 against the New England Patriots, causing coach Mike McCarthy to point the finger at himself. Former Steelers coaches including Mike Tomlin and Bill Cowher also joined in the discussion after the dismal 20-3 loss. Cowher spoke to CBS’ NFL Today show during which […] The post Steelers legend Bill Cowher is not a fan of Pittsburgh’s new offense appeared first on ClutchPoints .
And just like that, the second week of the 2026 NFL regular season is coming to an end. The New England Patriots, of course, entered the action on Sunday by beating the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers at Gillette Stadium, one of 16 total games on the menu over the weekend. With only one of those games […]

Over Paul Skenes’ first two major-league seasons, the six-foot-six right-hander was virtually unhittable. On his way to the NL Rookie of the Year in 2024 and Cy Young in 2025, the Pittsburgh Pirates ace carried a 1.96 ERA over 320.2 innings and 55 starts while racking up 386 strikeouts. But in 2026, Skenes hasn’t quite been the same pitcher. After averaging 98.5 m.p.h. with his fastball across his first two years, the pitch has taken a step back this season, averaging 96.8 and allowing hitters...
Getting their kicks from distance Published: Sep 21, 2026 at 08:44 PM Updated: Sep 21, 2026 at 04:00 PM Mike Prisuta Steelers.com Copied! The Steelers aren’t just talking about being aggressive as it relates to kicker Chris Boswell and repeated long-range field goal attempts, they’re taking their shots whenever possible. “We feel we have a kicker that we can, if we choose, put him out into those situations, that we’re going to be successful,” special teams coordinator Danny Crossman emphasized...
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday was painful in many different ways. It was probably most painful, literally, for Aaron Rodgers compared to anybody else on the roster. Without any support from the offensive line or his receiving corps getting open on a consistent basis, Rodgers took a lot of shots. Including some pressure from Patriots DT Cory Durden, who took a shot at Rodgers on Twitter after the game. “Enjoy retirement my dog,” Durden wrote in a tweet, acc...
The Pittsburgh Steelers were a mess in Week 2. They lost 20-3 to the New England Patriots, and their offense looked anemic. Even when it looked like it was doing things right, it got in its own way. Every time the Steelers’ offense took one step forward, it followed that up with three steps back. Former NFL offensive lineman Alex Boone blamed Aaron Rodgers for that, ripping into the quarterback. “They’re so fucking bad…” Boone said Monday on his Oline Committee podcast. “It pisses me off. I li...
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense is drawing a lot of flak after the team’s Week 2 loss to the New England Patriots. That’s fair, because that unit put up only three points. However, the Steelers’ defense wasn’t perfect either. Defensive coordinator Patrick Graham pointed to one area that he wasn’t satisfied with against the Patriots. “We […]
The New England Patriots improved to 1-1 with Sunday’s 20-3 rout of the Pittsburgh Steelers, but Pats quarterback Drake Maye, last season’s MVP runner-up, hasn’t been the same caliber of player this season. In two games, Maye has thrown four interceptions for just one touchdown and is averaging only 193 passing yards per game. After…
The Kansas City Chiefs beat the Indianapolis Colts 33-30 in OT and have started the season 2-0.
