The Pittsburgh Steelers have lost three of their last four games and are noticeably struggling on offense. Their most recent seven-point performance has raised frustrations among Black and Gold faithful and even some players. Tight end Pat Freiermuth has taken a step back in the offense this season with the emergence of Darnell Washington and […]
The Buffalo Bills dominated time of possession with methodical drives that eventually led to a pretty decent scoring day. That’s gotten a lot of rightful attention, but none of that would have happened if it weren’t for a dominant defensive performance that defines “complementary football.” The Bills managed a meager three points in the first […]
The Steelers signed linebacker Kana’i Mauga to the practice squad Wednesday, the team announced. Pittsburgh had an open spot after releasing wide receiver Cornell Powell on Tuesday. Mauga went undrafted in 2022. He’s since had stints with the Denver Broncos, Las Vegas Raiders, and Los Angeles Chargers over his NFL career. Mauga, 25, has played […]
A member of the Steelers’ 2025 draft class could be making his NFL debut before the season ends. The team announced Wednesday that it has opened the 21-day practice window for cornerback and kick returner Donte Kent, who was a Steelers’ seventh-round pick this year. Kent was placed on injured reserve in late August before […]
The Ravens (6-6) are 5.5-point favorites for their upcoming game against the Steelers (6-6), a surprising line considering the two teams’ even record and history of competitive matchups. Both teams lost in Week 13. The Ravens were embarrassed by the Bengals at home on Thanksgiving, while the Steelers got run over by the Bills. That […]
The MLB Hot Stove is finally ready to start heating up.

Free agents will sign. Trades will be consummated. Scott Boras will hold […]
The Philadelphia Flyers will play the first of what might be a few dozen games tonight without winger Tyson Foerster, and head coach Rick Tocchet is changing things up a bit as Philadelphia gets ready for the visiting Buffalo Sabres. #Flyers lines at morning skate Zegras-Dvorak-Konecny Michkov-Couturier-Tippett Grebenkin-Cates-Brink Deslauriers-Abols-Hathaway Grundstrom York-Sanheim Andrae-Drysdale Seeler-Zamula Juulsen-Ristolainen — Jackie Spiegel (@jackiespiegel93) December 3, 202...
The calls for the Pittsburgh Steelers to move on from Mike Tomlin are louder than they have ever been. Fans chanting “Fire Tomlin” at the end of the Steelers’ 26-7 loss to the Buffalo Bills encapsulated the frustration that has finally boiled over after years of mediocrity. But it’s not just fans and media saying […]
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin tried to relate to local reporters during his weekly press conference on Tuesday. The Steelers are 6-6 and have lost five of their last seven games. They haven’t won a playoff game in eight years and are tied for first place in the AFC North. Pittsburgh is tied with Baltimore, […]
Ville Koivunen is one of the Pittsburgh Penguins most talented young players and will hopefully be a long-term part of their future. In his brief time in the organization he has been a dynamic scorer at the AHL level, but has not yet been able to turn that into results or production in the NHL. […]
After being a healthy scratch for the Steelers in Week 13, Pittsburgh announced that they were releasing the former Eagles CB, Darius Slay. Rumors quickly started swirling about the veteran Super Bowl winner returning to the Eagles, but John Clark of NBC Sports reported on Wednesday that there was mutual interest in a reunion. When […]
For the past month, we’ve been trying to seek out the positives in what feels like another lost season. We’ve found the silver linings in the Steelers’ long-term prospects, even if we haven’t felt many reasons to be optimistic about the chances of Pittsburgh finally snapping their playoff victory drought this season, let alone climbing […]
The Miami Dolphins still could use cornerback help, and the Steelers just gifted a player who will help any CB-needy team.
Here are your Pens Points for this Wednesday morning… ICYMI: Sidney Crosby continues to climb all-time leaderboards and is fewer than 10 points away from toppling one held by franchise giant Mario Lemieux. With two goals on Monday night against the Philadelphia Flyers, Crosby now sits just seven points behind Lemieux for the most regular-season […]

The Pittsburgh Pirates finished the 2025 season with a 71-81 record placing them at the bottom of the NL Central division and outside of the postseason. Since the team finished with a less than stellar standing, they will be entered into the 2026 MLB Draft Lottery with a shot at selecting first overall. This year […]
After releasing veteran cornerback Darius Slay on Tuesday, the Steelers have bolstered their defensive back depth. The team announced the signing of cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. from the practice squad to the 53-man roster, as well as the signing of cornerback Daequan Hardy to the practice squad. The team also released wide receiver Cornell Powell […]
Former Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay was reportedly released by the Pittsburgh Steelers, so, it’s time for the age-old question: should the Birds bring him back to Philly? First, it should be noted that all NFL players are subject to waivers after the trade deadline. The waiver wire order reflects the current 2026 NFL Draft […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers have claimed wide receiver Adam Thielen off waivers, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Thielen requested his release from the Minnesota Vikings after being traded back to Minnesota from the Carolina Panthers ahead of the season. Thielen was a healthy scratch in the Vikings’ 26-0 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, which prompted the release […]
The Buffalo Bills entered a pivotal game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 13 down both starting right tackles, and a starting tight end, among other positions. A revolving door in the wide receiver room and a windy day in Pittsburgh didn’t give any of us Bills fans great confidence in a strong passing day. […]
Sunday was a low point for Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin. Late in the 26-7 loss to the Buffalo Bills, fans at Acrisure Stadium began chanting, “Fire Tomlin.” There have been Steelers fans who have called for Tomlin to be fired for what feels like forever, but this was the first time audible chants […]
Philadelphia Flyers winger Tyson Foerster suffered an awkward-looking injury during Monday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Penguins and his injury timeline has been revealed.

Announced by the team, after some minor reports started to leak about the length of Foerster’s potential absence just to make it official, the 23-year-old winger will be out for two to three months. It’s a rough timeline of between eight and 12 weeks, but that’s the information that w...

Caleb Williams’ box score wasn’t pretty in Philly, but there is a much bigger picture here that we need to consider. This season, Williams is throwing with anticipation, but the accuracy hasn’t been there at times. However, many times when it has been there, the receiving corps has failed him. It’s a shared problem that Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson acknowledged this week when speaking to reporters on Monday . “The primary receiver, when he’s open, we’ve got to make sure we hit him,” ...
