The Los Angeles Lakers returned from the All-Star break with a subpar performance against the Golden State Warriors. LeBron James was absent for L.A. as the Warriors cruised to a 128-110 victory with D’Angelo Russell — 18 points and nine assists — and Anthony Davis — 27 points and 15 rebounds — leading the way. The only Laker with a positive plus-minus on the night was Spencer Dinwiddie, a plus-six in his 18 minutes of work. It was a sluggish evening for the Lakers, as they lost all four quarters and gave up at least 30 points in each of…

The NFL Draft is fast approaching and the Pittsburgh Steelers will have their hands full with big decisions over the coming weeks. But prior to that, Pittsburgh will have to navigate free agency and decide who goes, who stays, and who’s coming in. So before things get going in March, here is the round 3 pre-free agency draft target for Pittsburgh: Steelers Round 3 Draft Target, Pre-Free Agency, Notre Dame CB Cam Hart Hart fits the profile of what Pittsburgh is looking for in their corners, seeing that he is long, tall and physical, with the ability to play press…

The NFL Draft is fast approaching and the Pittsburgh Steelers will have their hands full with big decisions over the coming weeks. But prior to that, Pittsburgh will have to navigate free agency and decide who goes, who stays, and who’s coming in. So before things get going in March, here are the pre-free agency draft targets for Pittsburgh, starting in round one: Pittsburgh Steelers Round 1 Draft Fit, Pre-Free Agency: Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia If this feels like Deja Vu, then you’re not alone, as Pittsburgh’s first-round pick from last year’s draft was also a former Georgia Bulldog and…

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett may not have won over Pittsburgh fans, but he does have one big fan – Terry Bradshaw. The Steelers legend appeared on the Rich Eisen Show and discussed Pickett amid rumors that the team may trade for Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields: “I love Pickett,” Bradshaw said. “I know him well. He’s fiercely competitive. He’s a tough-minded kind. Things don’t bother him. I really like him a lot.” The Steelers’ Hall of Famer used fellow 2022 draft pick Brock Purdy as an example of how a young quarterback can succeed with significant help around him.…

Let’s just say that Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Patrick Peterson was not a fan of the offense that former Steelers offensive coordinator Matt Canada was running with the team in 2023. In an episode of his All Things Covered Podcast with former Steelers cornerback Bryant McFadden on Thursday, Peterson let loose on the offense under Canada in 2023, calling it “basic and elementary.” “Not to point the finger at the playcaller, but I don’t know what type of plays were running out there on offense when we had Matt Canada with us,” Peterson said. “I just feel like we were super…

While everyone talks about Kenny Pickett struggling, very rarely is the ‘why’ to his struggles talked about around Pittsburgh Steelers circles. He has a decent arm, and he’s an above-average NFL athlete, but he can struggle to process from the pocket, and that can develop into bad tendencies in the pocket to leave it too early instead of staying in structure. Pickett can work out of structure and has shown it before, but he often relies upon it too much. And that is what teammate and cornerback Patrick Peterson believes as well. He has to improve on his pocket presence…

If you’re like me there isn’t anywhere you can go to escape the talk about who the Steelers starting quarterback will be in 2024. Unfortunately, while the names have changed, the chatter has been the same for a long, long time. I can go back as far as the 2017 NFL season when then-Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had a terrible game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. After a five-interception performance, Big Ben quipped: “Maybe the old gunslinger doesn’t have it anymore.” From at least that moment forward, fans have been rabid about Roethlisberger’s replacement, even when he wasn’t ready to be…

The Pittsburgh Steelers moved on from Chuks Okorafor to give him a headstart into the offseason, and as a result, Okorafor became another tackle in a market with very few options. So, what could the market be for him? After a season that saw him benched, Pro Football Focus projects that Okorafor could land a $5.25 million deal in free agency, a solid payday for Okorafor. Okorafor, 26, had been with the team since the Steelers drafted him in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft out of Western Michigan. A native of Ibadan, Nigeria, Okorafor became a starter…

The Pittsburgh Steelers could add not one but two massive defensive backs this offseason, finishing off their secondary by providing young and talented pieces to an already strong defense. One of those additions comes through free agency, while the other has been named their “home run pick” in the first round of the NFL Draft. And really, both make complete sense for the Steelers – and should be on their radar. When it comes to the AFC and trying to defeat the likes of Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, and many others, having a strong secondary is…

The Pittsburgh Steelers are currently in the thick of the offseason. One of their star players, linebacker TJ Watt, is utilizing the first two weeks of the offseason to rest and recover from the previous season. This is a new approach for him, as he hopes it will help him preserve his career longevity and give his body sufficient time to recuperate. Over the past seven seasons, Watt has undeniably established himself as one of the most dominant forces on the gridiron, consistently delivering stellar performances. However, the toll of another grueling season has become apparent, particularly as he reflects…
