Steelers' Pat Freiermuth Shows Love To Biggest Rival: 'He's A Beast'
The Pittsburgh Steelers play in what is likely the most difficult division in the NFL. Every team in the AFC North ranks near the top when it comes to strength of schedule for the 2024 season, and that is because they all have to face one another twice a year. Three teams in the division made the postseason in 2023, and it is extremely competitive. Pittsburgh's biggest rival in the league is arguably the Baltimore Ravens, and tight end Pat Freiermuth recently praised one of their star defenders. Freiermuth is looking to have his best season yet in 2024, which will be his...

Should the Pittsburgh Pirates have any untouchable prospects in trade talks?
The Pittsburgh Pirates headed into the All-Star break as a .500 team. They have won six of their last seven games, and since calling Paul Skenes up from Triple-A to make his debut on May 11, they have a .544 winning percentage. If they keep something like that up for the rest of the year, that puts them on pace for around 84-85 wins. That’s a pretty good pace, and that’s not factoring in any internal improvements, such as players heating up in the second half or prospect promotions like Braxton Ashcraft (who is already on the 40-man roster).

Steelers QB Could Set Ugly Record in 2024
PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers have struggled to protect their quarterbacks over the years. Even in the years of Ben Roethlisberger and elite QB play, the offensive line was rarely a strength. Instead, it was mostly due to Roethlisberger's ability to extend plays that kept him upright and lowered the number of sacks he took.
