You can’t tell me this group isn’t loaded
The Bills currently sit with -6.7 million in 2023 cap space
According to
@spotrac
Tremaine Edmunds market value is 11 million
I think the Steelers will have a legit shot at him
This is what I believe
-Aiyuk wants to come to the Steelers
-Steelers have a weak trade offer to SF but will do the contract
-Aiyuk won’t accept a trade to Cleveland/NE
-SF desperate to get over this drama but want the Steelers to offer more & leaking stories for a better deal
Not a Steelers fan, but...
- TJ Watt set the sack record playing one less game than Michael Strahan
- Steelers were 9-2 in games Watt played over 60% of snaps. They were 0-5 in games where he played less than 60%
No player meant more to his team. TJ Watt is the REAL NFL MVP.
The Steelers had the 32nd rushing attack and the highest drop rate in the league in 2020
Ben wasn’t the issue. The people that are saying he is didn’t actually watch.
The Steelers legitimately got better on Offense, Defense, and Special Teams this offseason… Not really sure why people are expecting them to be bottom 10 in the league
The Steelers turned David DeCastro’s release into:
Trai Turner
Melvin Ingram
& Joe Schobert
This is a huge win for a guard that probably never plays this year
The grandest pipe dream of all:
Local Pittsburgh kid, Aaron Donald, doesn’t get the contract he’s looking for and upon threatening retirement gets traded back home and receives a massive contract (which the Steelers can now afford)
"[Ben Roethlisberger] is going to be bad, and I expect him to benched by the middle of the season. ... He's had a great career. It's over."

Steelers 3 moves so far
Russell Wilson - SB champ on vet minimum
Patrick Queen - 2nd Team All-Pro
Cameron Johnston - coffin corner specialist
Steelers stock 📈📈📈
The Pittsburgh Steelers are such a well run organization that players constantly (& publicly) kick themselves when they leave or they just take far less money to never leave
They’re still the gold standard folks
If Ahkello Witherspoon picks off Jones at the end of the first half; or
Cam Sutton doesn’t drop the pick; or
Gunner Olszewski doesn’t muff that punt
The Steelers win the game
Also on Tyrann Mathieu, his market is drying up rather quick… Steelers have the funds and means. And honestly probably won’t have much competition so it should be more affordable than expected
The Steelers wasted the Killer B’s with a bad defense and now look to be wasting a great defense with a bad offense
And the crazy part is they never had a year where they met in the middle
Let’s be clear here the Steelers have done everything right this year. Yet they are on the precipice of facing the largest punishment because two opponents couldn’t follow protocol. NFL needs to do the right thing here
Steelers Head Coach win-loss records (including playoffs) since 1969
Chuck Noll 209–156–1 (.572)
Bill Cowher 161–99–1 (.619)
Mike Tomlin 153–86–1 (.640)
Not one Steelers player is on pace for a 1,000 yard rushing or receiving season, and yet they are averaging 29.8 points per game.
This stat shows how good Ben Roethlisberger has been. Spreading the ball around the field and not being carried by one player.
Ahkello Witherspoon and Levi Wallace aren’t the best CB duo in the league but if the Steelers had Minkah Fitzpatrick AND Tyrann Mathieu lurking behind them it wouldn’t matter
