Steelers Predicted to Miss Playoffs

The Pittsburgh Steelers put in plenty of work over the offseason to try and build a roster that is capable of not only returning to the postseason, but extending a run beyond the first round - something this team hasn't done in seven years. Oddsmakers, analytical models and commentators all generally agree - there wont be the kind of drastic improvements from the Steelers that many are hoping for in 2024. CBS Sports' Pete Prisco put it plainly - he doesn't see Russell Wilson as a viable option to start at quarterback anymore and their continued struggles finding a franchise signal caller will offset the improvements they made to the defense and offensive line. It wouldn't surprise me at some point if Justin Fields took over as the starter on this team.
