The standard is the standard in Pittsburgh, but where is it set now?

When the Steelers play a primetime game like they did this past Sunday, it frees up my viewing choices for the day games.

Somebody Send The Bat Signal For Warren And Patterson

When the game against the Dallas Cowboys ended, I put a post on X (@CGillis2021) with gif’s of Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson and the words “Somebody send the bat signal!!!”. It is tough to watch this offense’s inability to create any explosion on the ground. Najee Harris has been consistent, but he’s been consistently… read more
