STEELERS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Larry Foote Upset About Pittsburgh Steelers 2012 Season and James Harrison’s Choice to Join the Cincinnati Bengals
Pittsburgh Steelers inside linebacker Larry Foote is making his feelings well known. First, he’s not too happy about the Steelers disappointing 8-8 season in 2012. It’s unlikely that anyone would/could be happy about a season that ended as poorly as the Steelers season did last year, but as one of the leaders on the defense Foote will have to lead the team to a turnaround in...
Steelers LB Larry Foote Says There’s A Whole Different Mindset To The Off-season
Like most NFL players, Pittsburgh Steelers inside linebacker Larry Foote is very passionate about his alma mater and he recently gave an interview to Go Blue Wolverine to give his thoughts on Michigan and their upcoming season.
Foote, who made sure to voice his hate for Ohio State during the interview, was also asked to give his thoughts on the Steelers missing the playoffs in...
Pittsburgh Steelers Rankings in NFL’s Top 100 Players Perfectly Show Flaws in the System
The NFL Network has been counting down the top 100 players heading into the 2013 season. The top 100 players last year showed that there were many flaws in the system and the players even asked who had voted for these rankings. According to the network the players themselves were the one’s voting. These issues, coupled with some of the players that made the list, showed that there...
Don’t Bet On Steelers DE Cameron Heyward Opening The Season As A Starter
With Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Cameron Heyward now entering his third season in the league, many believe that he will open the 2013 season as a starter, but I wouldn't be so quick to bet on that happening.
Even though Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette posted this week in his online chat that he's been told Heyward is already better than starting left defensive...
Motivation for Ben Just Keeps Mounting
He’s hurt all the time. He hasn’t had a fourth quarter comeback in forever. It was his fault Mike Wallace left because he couldn’t throw it deep enough for him. He makes the wrong audibles. He was too ‘chummy’ with Bruce Arians and he is clearly the reason the team lost Super Bowl XLV and went 8-8 last year.
Ben Roethlisberger is a lot of things, but he isn’t Atlas. He...
Top 5 Multiple-Pick Rounds in Pittsburgh Steelers Drafts Since 2000 (Part 1 of 2)
If the 2013 Pittsburgh Steelers draft was made into a movie, the dramatic climax would come in the fourth round.
The Steelers traded next year’s third-round pick for the Browns’ fourth-round pick, No. 111, to draft flashy safety Shamarko Thomas. Then, four picks later, the Steelers dropped some jaws by drafting Landry Jones.
Jones is the first quarterback the Steelers have drafted...

Mike Wallace Thinks Ryan Tannehill Can Throw Farther Than Ben Roethlisberger
New Miami Dolphins wide receiver, and former Pittsburgh Steeler, Mike Wallace believes that his new quarterback will be “great.” Wallace will have to hope that Tannehill becomes a great quarterback because he just left a great quarterback in Ben Roethlisberger to play with him. Although, let’s be honest, Wallace’s move to Miami had more to do with money than the quarterback...
J.D. Woods Must Prove He’s Not Just That Other West Virginia Wide Receiver To Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers undrafted wide receiver J.D. Woods caught 61 passes for 637 yards and four touchdowns in 2012, but being as he played his college football at West Virginia, that was only good enough to rank him third on the team in receptions behind Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey, both of whom caught 114 passes last season. In other words, Woods was just "that other West...
Steelers likely won’t re-sign Casey Hampton
Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette doesn’t believe the Steelers would be interested in resigning free agent nose tackle Casey Hampton even if he’s not ready to retire yet.
Hampton will be turning 36 years-old in early September, it doesn’t make sense for the Steelers to bring him back. It’s time to reload and move on. They’ll be just fine without him.

The Steelers Have Struggled With Consistency Since 2008
2008 was an epic year of defensive grit and sandlot improvisation that boiled down to a miraculous culmination of last second heroics. It meant 2 rings for our quarterback, 2 rings within 3 years and on our way back to dynasty status, it meant the top of the world, with nowhere else to go but unfortunately down. 2009 was a so-so year of special teams breakdowns, the beginning of...
Plaxico Burress launches a luxury sock company
It looks like Steelers wide receiver Plaxico Burress is preparing for life after football after recently launching a luxury sock company called The Plaxico Burress Collection. I’m not into weird-looking socks like the ones Plax is selling, but I certainly wish him the best of luck going forward. Need NFL Tickets? The post Plaxico Burress launches a luxury sock company appeared...
Steelers seeking stability on defensive front
Anchored on the front line by NT Casey Hampton and bookend DEs Kimo Von Oelhoffen and Aaron Smith the dominant 2005 Pittsburgh Steelers defense allowed a stingy 3.4 yards per carry. Von Oelhoffen left for Gang Green pastures following the Superbowl season and was replaced by incumbent DE Brett Keisel. The Steelers played .500 football in 2006 but that was due to careless turnovers...
Steelers could have selected the best quarterback in the draft
Landry Jones could be this years draft steal. In the past few years Big Ben has been rattled by injuries that left quartebacks Charlie Batch and Byron Leftwich coming in to take over. With that being said the four year starter at Oklahoma fell into a wonderful spot.
Landry will compete with Byron Leftwich for the back up spot. I believe that Landry will shine in camp and if an injury...
Kevin Colbert: Steelers in ‘good shape’ with the salary cap
Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert said Tuesday that the team is in “good shape” in terms of the salary cap. “Right now, we’re in good shape“, said Colbert during a 30-minute question-and-answer session with season ticket holders.
