Sunday was a timely reminder of just how effective Luis Diaz can be for Liverpool. After bursting onto the scene at Anfield two years ago, Diaz has had a mixed last couple of seasons for the Reds. Last year – his first full campaign with the club – was ruined by injury, meanwhile he’s struggled to fully get going in 2023/24. But against Manchester City last weekend the Colombian shone. Okay, it wasn’t a perfect performance and Diaz should have won the game for Liverpool. But it was nice to see him going at, and beating, Kyle Walker. We haven’t…

With NFL free agency set to kick off this week, the Next Gen Stats analytics team at NFL.com examined the top needs for every AFC team. For the Pittsburgh Steelers, Next Gen Stats thinks quarterback, offensive tackle and cornerback should be a top priority for the Steelers in free agency. “Mitchell Trubisky has been released, and Mason Rudolph could be headed elsewhere in free agency, making Kenny Pickett the last quarterback standing on a team that is ready to compete right now. Based on what Pickett has shown, Pittsburgh shouldn’t enter 2024 without ample competition at the position,” Next Gen…

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been a dominant franchise in the NFL since the 1970s. During that time, they have won an incredible six Super Bowls while having only three head coaches. They have always been that way, loyal to those who are loyal to them and the model they have built is unparalleled to any other team, in any other sport. The Rooney family has owned the team since its inception in the early 1920s. They were not good in the beginning, in fact, they were downright awful. They were originally called the Pittsburgh Pirates, like the baseball team and…

Former Pittsburgh Steelers safety, Troy Polamalu transcended the Steel City and earned fans all over the NFL thanks to his incredible gameplay. Polamalu seemed to have a sixth sense when it came to reading offenses. It was like he could intuit what they were calling before they called it and was known to make adjustments to the defense on the field based on what he saw. These adjustments were initially without the permission of his coaches until they realized that what he was doing was clearly working. If you go back and watch highlights of Polamalu during his 12 years…

The Pittsburgh Steelers were very active throughout the 2023 free agency period. The organization had multiple holes to fill on offense and defense, and Omar Khan and Andy Weidl aggressively brought in veterans to address those needs. Some, like Isaac Seumalo, worked out, while others, like Patrick Peterson, did not. The hit-and-miss nature of importing current NFL players is a cruel reminder of why the Steelers have traditionally stayed away from free agency. Khan is demonstrating that he is willing to break with tradition in Pittsburgh, even if it gets him red-flagged by his contemporaries. He is playing by his…

The Pittsburgh Steelers had enough of the struggling, inept offense in 2023 and made a historic move by firing then-Offensive Coordinator Matt Canada. Ahead of the 2024 season, the Steelers brought in former head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, Arthur Smith, to take charge of the offense. With former first-round draft pick Kenny Pickett’s future uncertain, it will be up to Smith to determine what role Pickett should play. The new coordinator is expected to shift the direction the offense has been going in and rediscover the kind of success the franchise is used to. Smith will be tasked with…

Free Agency starts with the beginning of the new league year on Wednesday March 13th, and the biggest name in the quarterback market will be former Pro Bowl Quarterback Russell Wilson. There has been a large amount of speculation on what Wilsons market will look like and we have finally received some clarity. DraftKings Sportsbook released updated odds on Wilson’s next team. Russell Wilson has already met with teams and will continue to as the off season progresses. Since the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger in 2022, the Steelers have been winning despite their quarterback play. The Steelers selected Kenny Picket…

The Pittsburgh Steelers Are Reportedly Listening To Trade Offers For Former 1,100-Yard Wide Receiver Diontae Johnson. Even though they made the playoffs last year, the Pittsburgh Steelers enter the 2024 offseason in a bit of turmoil. The team could be looking for a new quarterback to replace Kenny Pickett, Mike Tomlin might be contemplating retirement, and the organization is looking to trade wide receiver Diontae Johnson. A third-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, Johnson immediately joined the long list of receivers successfully developed under the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite never having a stable quarterback situation, the Toledo product has routinely…

The NFL’s attention has shifted toward free agency, but teams will have another the opportunity to fill their needs in the NFL draft. Sportskeeda’s Tony Pauline expects the Pittsburgh Steelers to address their offensive line in the first round with Alabama’s JC Latham. In his newest NFL mock draft, Pauline predicted the Steelers to target Latham at No. 20 overall. “Kool-Aid McKinstry will receive consideration here, but not enough is known about his injury,” Pauline wrote. “Latham is a better fit than [Amarius] Mims as a powerful right tackle, which allows them to move Broderick Jones, last year’s first-round pick,…

Trade rumors surrounding Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson have began to heat up. So much so that NFL writers have begun to suggest potential trade destinations this offseason for Johnson. Bleacher Report’s Gary Davenport touted the Dallas Cowboys as a potential landing spot for Johnson. “Getting Johnson’s $15.8 million cap hit to fit on Dallas’ books given their annual cap issues would take a little doing, but extending the 27-year-old would solve that issue,” wrote Davenport. “With Dallas being awarded a pair of compensatory draft picks this week, the Cowboys have more draft capital with which to play Let’s…
