Game Discussion (Let’s Try This Again): Milwaukee Brewers (59-34) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (47-47)

The Brewers were rained out last night! I hope you’ll forgive that instead of rewriting an entire new game discussion, I’m just going to (mostly) copy and paste what I wrote before yesterday’s game, because both teams are using the same lineups they announced last night. However, there are two new pieces of information today. […]

Study: What’s A Reasonable Sack Number For Cam Heyward?

On a recent Terrible Podcast, Dave Bryan and Alex Kozora were discussing DT Cam Heyward. One topic I found intriguing was Heyward’s sack numbers. Dave asked if eight would be achievable this season, and Alex questioning if that had ever been done at Heyward’s age (37) and position. This inspired me to find the answer […]

Could Roman Wilson Finally Be Poised For A Breakout Season?

Last year was an excellent chance for Roman Wilson to break onto the scene. After injuries robbed him of a chance to make an impact in his rookie season, he went into 2025 battling Calvin Austin III for the WR2 role, with the Steelers begging one of them to step up and help DK Metcalf. […]

The Unexpected Connection Between Max Iheanachor And Antwaan Randle El

Presumably, Max Iheanachor and Antwaan Randle El have never met. One is a large, athletic offensive lineman. The other is a college quarterback who became a gadget receiver. Yet, a connection binds the two. If things were slightly different, the Steelers wouldn’t have drafted either player. Pittsburgh’s intended choices were taken right under their nose, […]

Pirates Designate Cam Sanders For Assignment

The Pirates have designated right-hander Cam Sanders for assignment, and moved shortstop Konnor Griffin from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL.  The two moves clear roster spots for Jacob Gonzalez and Brandon Eisert, who were acquired yesterday from the White Sox. After making his MLB debut by posting an 8.10 ERA over 6 […]

‘Time To Move On’: Analyst Doesn’t Believe Steelers Can Have ‘Dominant’ Defense With T.J. Watt On The Roster

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense is loaded with cornerstones. From T.J. Watt to Alex Highsmith, Patrick Queen, Jalen Ramsey, Joey Porter Jr. and others, there’s enough talent on the defense that the Steelers should have one of the better units in the league. The defense was paid top money but didn’t play like it last season. […]

Which Penguin would you want on your beer league team?

This is a good one from the NHL social media team, asking players who they would want on their beer league teams. Who would be the best from the Penguins? Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, duh, they stand apart as an opportunity you’d never forget to get to share the ice with some of the […]

Do Steelers Have Enough Depth To Leave Jalen Ramsey To What He Does Best?

Jalen Ramsey could play outside cornerback, slot cornerback, or safety, but he figures to play primarily in the slot. The Steelers have two starting-caliber cornerbacks and two starting-caliber safeties. In base defense, one of those starting-caliber players will sit on the sidelines in favor of Ramsey. But when they have their primary defensive package on […]

James Harrison remains as convinced as ever that the New England Patriots cheated their way to the 2004 Super Bowl. Relitigating the Pittsburgh Steelers’ AFC Championship Game loss, Harrison says the Patriots countered too often for it to be anything other than something suspect. “When I say they caught us, they only missed one blitz,” […]
