‘You Need To Get Out Of Here:’ T.J. Watt Jokes What He’ll Always Remember About Historic Pick-Six
The Pittsburgh Steelers found themselves in a rock fight with the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. The Steelers entered the fourth quarter clinging to a three-point lead. The defense had done its job, largely containing the Falcons’ offense (which mainly consisted of RB Bijan Robinson). Yet the game was still dangerously close. Enter OLB T.J. Watt. […]
Steelers-Patriots Broadcast Gets Limited Availability Around Country

‘That’s A Skill:’ T.J. Watt Praises OLB Coach C.J. Ah You For Managing Reps
One of the biggest changes for the Pittsburgh Steelers in their 20-13 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1 was rep management. As a whole, the team’s star defenders played significantly less snaps than they did under Mike Tomlin and the previous regime. T.J. Watt played just 38 of 60 defensive snaps but made […]
Gene Steratore Explains How Officials Missed DPI Against DK Metcalf
While the Pittsburgh Steelers came out of Week 1 with a 20-13 win over the Atlanta Falcons, they lost the opportunity for more points on a third-down deep shot to WR DK Metcalf in the third quarter that fell incomplete.

Pryor: Joey Porter Jr. Contract Talks Lasted Through Sunday Morning
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a deadline at the start of the regular season for contract negotiations, but it’s unclear where exactly the line is drawn. Do they cut things off Saturday at 11:59 PM? According to ESPN’s Brooke Pryor, Joey Porter Jr.’s talks extended into Sunday morning. “I’m told the Steelers were having conversations with […]
Big Ben Names One Thing He Wants To See Steelers Do With Aaron Rodgers
Ben Roethlisberger isn’t happy with how much pressure Aaron Rodgers faced in Week 1. So he wants the Steelers to use empty sets. While he admits that is going to complicate pass protection that is already a concern, he explained his reasoning on his Footbahlin podcast. After attempting 40 passes on Sunday, Rodgers has the […]
Jack Sawyer Sees Potential In Steelers’ Defense After Week 1: ‘The Future Is Bright’
The Steelers’ defense allowed just 13 points on Sunday, 7 of which came on a short field. The future is bright, Jack Sawyer believes. Part of a dynamic outside linebacker rotation, the second-year player discussed the unit on 102.5 WDVE last night. “I think if you look at our defense, we’re very deep”, Sawyer said, […]
Jack Sawyer Shares Stories Of Aaron Rodgers’ Generosity
Jack Sawyer thinks the outside perspective of Aaron Rodgers is far from the truth. He has the stories to prove it. During Tuesday’s weekly Chalk Talk with the PPG’s Gerry Dulac, Sawyer shared examples of Rodgers going above and beyond. “Growing up, my grandmother loved the Green Bay Packers,” Sawyer told Dulac via 102.5 DVE […]
RT Not The Only Change Steelers Should Consider Along Offensive Line, Beat Writer Says
While many are waiting on Max Iheanachor, is he the only change the Steelers should consider along their offensive line? The rookie first-round pick is currently the backup right tackle, and he did have to play one snap on Sunday. Starting RT Dylan Cook is playing on borrowed time, and his 2026 regular-season debut didn’t […]
Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – TE Darnell Washington
Player: TE Darnell Washington Stock Value: Up Reasoning: While it’s still not clear how his role will evolve, Darnell Washington showed he can be a dynamic contributor under Mike McCarthy. His receiving role having steadily grown over the past three years, he may not continue that trend. Or he may, yet—time will tell. But Sunday showed […]
‘Rip Through His Little Baby Arm’: DK Metcalf Must Fight Through Contact, Vince Williams Says
Whether with officials or former Steelers, WR DK Metcalf can’t catch a break following his Week 1 performance on Sunday. Though the Steelers won 20-13, and he had one late catch that helped them close the game, he struggled against Atlanta. On 10 targets, he managed just 4 receptions for 40 yards. He had one […]
‘Felt Their Presence’: Bengals Defense Changing The Narrative, Zac Taylor Believes
The Bengals joined the Steelers and Ravens in starting 1-0 in the AFC North, and Cincinnati has—its defense?—to thank. That’s a foreign concept to anybody who has followed the team in recent years, but at least for one week, that unit helped carry the day. Making it even more amazing is the fact that Joe […]
How Soon Will Germie Bernard Work Into WR Rotation?
How soon will Germie Bernard work his way into the wide receiver rotation? The Steelers traded up in the second round to draft WR Germie Bernard, who played just three snaps in his debut. Firmly behind Roman Wilson on the depth chart, his current role is decidedly limited. Or at least it was in Week […]

When it comes to using T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, and Nick Herbig simultaneously, the new Pittsburgh Steelers coaching staff isn’t just picking up where the old regime left off.

‘Gotta Get Darnell In The Game’: Santonio Holmes Wants Steelers To Feed Washington More
The Pittsburgh Steelers came out with a Week 1 win, beating the Atlanta Falcons 20-13. Their offense still sputtered, though, despite major upgrades this offseason.

‘Was So Awesome’: T.J. Watt A ‘Defensive Player Of The Year Nominee’ Already, Santonio Holmes Thinks
T.J. Watt came into the 2026 season under a lot of pressure. He signed a massive contract extension before the 2025 season, but he finished that year with only seven sacks and never established real consistency. Now that he’s reached his 30s, there was more chatter about his decline this past offseason. It clearly motivated […]
Two Early Signs Of How The Pittsburgh Steelers Offense Is Changing
The Pittsburgh Steelers offense changing under Mike McCarthy is no surprise. His scheme is much different than the one Arthur Smith ran.

Mike McCarthy had a […]

Despite Week 1 Win, Chris Canty Feels ‘Worse’ About The Steelers
It’s never a bad thing to start an NFL season 1-0. Wins are hard to come by at this level, and any team can win on any given Sunday. But it’s fair to have expected the Pittsburgh Steelers to handle the Atlanta Falcons a little more than they did in Week 1. The Steelers held […]
