    Could the Flores hiring lead to a new quarterback (i.e. Watson)?

    I have to think that the hiring of Brian Flores increases the odds that the Steelers will at least inquire about Deshaun Watson (if they haven't already). By all accounts each is a fan of the other, so much so that Miami reportedly was at the top of Watson's wish list of landing spots before...

    A good free-agent tracking site

    This is maybe the best free-agent tracker I've come across. Up-to-date, and VERY thorough: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/ BTW: There are some very good players left, more than a few who could help the Steelers. And they know that. So don't be discouraged by what's transpired up to...

    NFL Sunday Ticket for the 2020 season

    Just wondering if any of you are subscribing to the Sunday Ticket this year? And if so, are you getting a discount off the regular price? It looks like the cost, once again, is around $300. It seems to me that, given the pandemic and the economic hit to the country, the NFL could offer a...

    "Brown-out" Sunday had nothing to do with an injury

    Oh, boy. According to Dulac and Bouchette he was being disciplined: https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/steelers/2018/12/31/antonio-brown-dispute-steelers-news-nfl/stories/201812310108 Headline -- Sources: Antonio Brown missed practices, game after dispute with teammate Steelers receiver...

    Report: Concussions put Burfict's career in jeopardy

    Here's an item that will interest Steeler fans: ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that the career of Bengals' Vontaze Burfict could be in jeopardy because of concussions. He has already sustained seven in his career, including one last Sunday vs. the Browns - his second this month...

    Call in - your chance to fire Tomlin

    Dejan Kovacevic, filling in for Mark Madden, is asking Steeler fans to call in and make a case for firing Mike Tomlin. This is pretty good stuff...but so far no one has made a detailed, coherent argument for doing it. Here's a link to the station (105.9 The X) and show...

    Madden (Mark, not John): Time to turn up the heat on Tomlin

    Colin Cowherd - yes, that Colin Cowherd - lavishes praise on Steelers organization

    For a supposed Steeler-hater, Cowherd sounds like their biggest fan. Says Bell not only walked away from a lot of money, but other things that mean a lot (but that Bell, and other pro athletes, don't give enough weight to): <iframe width="640" height="360"...

    Great, Ben has an elbow injury

    That "nugget" came out of Tomlin's weekly press conference a little while ago. Tomlin minimized it, saying it might limit the QB early in the week. For us old farts, hearing about an elbow issue conjures bad memories. That's how Bradshaw's career ended.

    Vikings-Packers game

    If the Steelers don't make "The Big Game," then I hope the Patriots do. So they'll lose to the best team in the NFC, the Vikings. I'd love it.

    Interesting prediction by Dulac

    Reading yesterday's chat transcript from Gerry Dulac of the Post-Gazette, he thinks the Steelers, not the Patriots, will end up hosting the AFC Championship game. Without getting more specific, what he's saying is that either the Steelers will reclaim the No. 1 seed, or the Pats will lose in...

    Two STEELERS-TEXANS tickets, good ones (and a parking pass) available

    OK, gang, I have two tickets for sale to the Christmas Day game in Houston a week from this coming Monday. Included is a parking pass to the Purple Lot, only a short walk to the stadium. These are good seats: Section 322 - the mezzanine level, about halfway up (Row N). These are "straight...
