Steelers Central

In this episode of Steelers Central, I break down the Steelers' victory against the Ravens, highlighting the good (Defense), the bad (offense), and the x-factor (Special Teams).

In this episode of Steelers Central, I'll look at how the Steelers dominated this Raiders team by returning to their traditional game plan of a suffocating defense and physical run game. The team is also gambling at the QB position by giving Russell Wilson some FT reps and planning to start him this week. I explain why I think that is the wrong move for the team going forward and the shortcomings of the people around him. This will also be the first game I pick against the Steelers. Lastly, I'll look at the AFC North to see how the Steelers stack up against the rest of the division.

In this episode of Steelers Central, I break down the disappointing performances on both sides of the ball, from miscommunication defensively to missed opportunities offensively, in the Steelers' loss to the Cowboys. Also, what is the deal with George Pickens? Russell Wilson will be back in full participation this week for the Steelers, so what does that mean for Justin Fields? Now, the focus moves to the depleted Raiders' defensive line and inability to run the ball. Will the Steelers fair better in Vegas? The Ravens are now in control of 1st place in the division as the Bengals and Browns sputter. What will transpire this week in the Crazy AFC North?
