15 Steelers Players On The 53 Man Roster Bubble
The Pittsburgh Steelers now have two preseason games in the books, but there are still several battles still going on for roster spots. The first round of cuts take place next week and the last two preseason games will be important to the 15 players that I have below that I consider to all be on the roster bubble.
Brandon Johnson - Johnson might have been helped the most by the...
Steelers NT Casey Hampton Recently Had Left Elbow Fixed
According to both Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and Tim Benz of 105.9 The X, Pittsburgh Steelers nose tackle Casey Hampton recently had his left elbow "fixed". Hampton is currently wearing a cast of some sorts and still expects to be ready for the season opener against the Denver Broncos.
The veteran nose tackle reportedly wouldn't say what kind of...

Steelers Offensive Game Notes Versus Colts
The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Indianapolis Colts 26-24 Sunday night at Heinz Field in their second preseason game of the 2012 season. Below are my offensive notes from the game.
The first big run by Jonathan Dwyer was a result of great blocking by the offensive line. Willie Colon had a great block out at the second level. Fullback Will Johnson also had a great lead block on the...
The Pittsburgh Steelers beat Indy: What Matters
Unlike the norm, Ike Taylor held onto an INT last night for a Pick-6 that propelled the Steelers to a win.
The Steelers team that took the field last night in Pittsburgh against the Indianapolis Colts figures to look very little like the finished product it is hoped this team will become. Missing from the field were James Harrison, Rashard Mendenhall, Casey Hampton, Mike Wallace...
Steelers activate Rashard Mendenhall off PUP
In a surprising move, the Steelers have activated Rashard Mendenhall off the PUP list. This move is surprising because everyone, including Steelers GM Kevin Colbert himself, believed that Mendenhall would begin the season on the PUP and have to miss at least 6 games after tearing his ACL last December.
Mendenhall is doubtful for week 1 and, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, ...
Steelers WR Mike Wallace Wont Play In Preseason If He Reports
Mike Wallaces preseason is effectively over even before it started. If the holdout wide receiver reports to the Steelers and signs his $2.742 million tender Sunday or Monday, as his teammates believe he will, he still must sit out three days under the NFL labor agreement. That would keep him out of the final preseason game Aug. 30 against Carolina and prevent him from practicing...
Steelers backfield in good hands with young talent on the rise
Just over a week ago, the Steelers running back situation looked like it was on life support. Isaac Redman wasn’t practicing with a sore groin, Jonathan Dwyer wasn’t working out either and Rashard Mendendhall is not near ready to return from this ACL injury from last year. The Steelers went out and signed Jason Ford out of Illinois to help at least get some healthy bodies in...
Mike Wallace Ready To Report To Steelers
Plugged in Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says the Steelers expect wide receiver Mike Wallace to report this weekend. If true, it would give him two weeks to get ready for the opener.Fantasy Spin:Wallace was a top fantasy receiver in 2011, hauling in 72 balls for 1,193 yards and eight touchdowns. The two weeks should be enough time to be ready as both he and quarterback...

Steelers vs Bills preview
Affiliate: The Steelers have been involved in two incredibly close preseason games so far, losing to the Philadelphia Eagles by one point in the opener and then overcoming the Indianapolis Colts 26-24 last weekend.

Veteran Surprise in Steelers' OLB Bullpen
James Harrison’s assertion this week that it’s still “realistic” to expect him to suit up in Denver was reassuring to a degree, but the linebacker position remains uncomfortably thin.
Standing Out: Players Who Took a Step Forward Against the Steelers
As we expected, and predicted, the Steelers were a much better test of talent against this Colts team than the abysmal Rams were in Week One of the preseason.
There were performances both good and bad this week, both as a team and individually. As the first roster cuts approach next Tuesday, which players are impressed last night?
