The Steelers will bring their 2-2 record to Tennessee tonight to face an old foe that dates back to the days of the old AFC Central division. While this is hardly a Clash of the Titans (sorry, couldn’t resist), Pittsburgh can’t come into this game with anything less than an unwavering determination to get on …

Steelers’ Polamalu and Woodley injuries all too familiar
The Steelers get a big win on Sunday afternoon at Heinz Field as they defeated the their intrastate rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles, 16-14. That’s the good news! They did what they had to do, finding a way to win and get to 2-2 on the year. Now for the bad news; those all too familiar …
Steelers historically do well at home against NFC teams
Perhaps playing the Philadelphia Eagles will be just what the doctor ordered for the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday at Heinz Field. I’m certainly not suggesting that playing the Eagles is going to be a cakewalk, not by a long stretch. However, for a team at 1-2; looking to right the ship that has so far …
Onward Steelers; Three Guys Who Need to Show Themselves Sunday
Nothing I say will surprise you if you follow and watch the Steelers enough but I would be remiss if I didn’t attack the issue nevertheless. Many pundits and experts think that the Steelers are just fine and that whenever they show signs of age or of problems in one area or another they seemingly …

Don’t Expect Much in the Way of Changes from Steelers’ D.
I feel like I’ve been in some form of twilight zone over the past week because I swear I’ve had the same conversation over and over. Perhaps the scariest part is that it wasn’t any twilight zone, it was reality and for every conversation I’ve had about the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense it always ends the …
No guarantee that James Harrison & Troy Polamalu can fix Steelers defense
After the debacle that was the Steelers loss to the Raiders on Sunday at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, there is plenty of blame to go around across the entire team. As Mike Tomlin would say, you win as a team and you lose as a team. No one person causes a loss any more than one …
Onward Steelers; Three Keys to Victory in Oakland
Each week I try to lay out three important keys to a Steelers’ win whether here at steeleraddicts.com, or on the BlitzburghRadio podcast or on the radio with Trib-Live. In actuality, I could probably pick seven or eight things each week, but for the sake of time and my own sanity I go with three. …
Mike Tomlin needs to continue to protect injured Steelers from themselves
Mike Tomlin had his weekly press conference on Tuesday and of course the subject of injuries is always at or near the top of the list. This week, a hot topic was the status of James Harrison and Troy Polamalu for this Sunday’s game in Oakland. According to Tomlin, they will be listed as day …
Onward Steelers; Foote Getting the Job Done
Coming into the 2012 season, anytime the name Larry Foote was mentioned, it was typically followed by the ‘replacement for James Farrior the all-pro linebacker who has now retired.’ I don’t know about you, but I think I would get tired of this after awhile and that’s no knock on Potsie who had an outstanding …
