The most important takeaway from that article is Dupree has already said he will sign the tender and report if he is franchise tagged.
I think the Steelers are going to need to win two of the final three to get in. The most likely path is losing to the Bills and then beating the...
I was focused on Week 17, not potential playoff matchups. The Steelers just have to focus on getting into the tournament for now. If they did...
I hadn't seen him officially ruled out, but that is definitely going to make things a lot tougher. I'm sure the hope was that he could draw a lot...
They faced the Ravens, the top scoring offense in the league.
That is a good point. It was a hell of a lot easier to play defense in the NFL in 1974 than it is now, so a direct comparison of statistics is not...
Teams have been daring the Steelers to throw it down the field like that since Roethlisberger was hurt. The offensive issues are a combination of...

Davis is almost definitely gone. It will be Edmunds.
Johnson needs to get a lot stronger. Brown isn't big, but he is strong. Take that game-winning touchdown against the Ravens, when he had to fight...
I wonder if Finney can actually handle a full-time starting job at center. I know he is better at guard, but it may be nearing time to move on...
Bell will not sign anywhere at the minimum. Some guys might be humbled by being cut, but I can't see Bell being one of them. This all assumes...
I imagine at some point, an agent will try to challenge that and suggest someone like Dupree should be with the defensive ends, but that isn't his...
