Steelers Ex-QB Charlie Batch Thrilled With Troy Fautanu: 'Expecting To Be A Day 1 Starter'
The Pittsburgh Steelers have focused on the trenches the past few seasons by building up their offensive line. That included first-round selections two years in a row with a pair of new offensive tackles: Broderick Jones in 2023 and Troy Fautanu in 2024. This was good news since the offensive line has been widely considered the team's weakest area over the past several seasons. Even during the final seasons of Ben Roethlisberger's career, he found his protection breaking down. With new Offensive Coordinator, Arthur Smith, calling the plays, the Steelers needed a more solid offensive line, especially with the heavy focus...

Steelers Have An 'Under-The-Radar' Problem Area That No One Is Talking About
The majority of the Pittsburgh Steelers' 2024 offseason chatter has been surrounding either the quarterback or wide receiver positions. The roster has many questions in these areas, which is why it makes sense for a lot of the conversations regarding the franchise to have been focused on them. Regardless, there is a 53-man roster for a reason. Every NFL team needs contributions from more than just a couple of offensive positions in order to be successful, and the Steelers are in great shape when it comes to the edge rusher position. Or are they? It could potentially end up being...

Steelers Could Feast On Rival Ravens If Training Camp Concerns Continue: 'Appeared To Be Struggling'
The Pittsburgh Steelers and their fans are always seeing how they compare to the rest of the AFC North. This is apparent with the Cincinnati Bengals and Cleveland Browns of course, but mostly with the Baltimore Ravens. It's likely the most competitive division in the NFL, as it became the first division in NFL history to have all four teams finish with a winning record during the 2023 season. That style of play will continue into 2024, but the Steelers are looking to finish better than third this year.
