Analista asegura que aumenta la presión sobre McCarthy tras la sólida pretemporada de los Steelers

Matt Verderame, de Sports Illustrated, le ha otorgado una calificación de A a los Pittsburgh Steelers por su activa pretemporada, destacando las importantes incorporaciones a la plantilla y la contratación de Mike McCarthy como entrenador jefe. Señala que el equipo cuenta ahora con una de las plantillas más completas de la NFL sobre el papel.

Los Steelers realizaron cambios significativos esta pretemporada bajo la dirección del gerente general Omar Khan, incluyendo la contratación de McCarthy para reemplazar a Mike Tomlin tras 19 años y la selección de 10 jugadores en el Draft de la NFL de 2026. También realizaron un intercambio por el receptor abierto Michael Pittman Jr. y firmaron a jugadores como Jamel Dean, Jaquan Brisker, Sebastian Joseph-Day y Rico Dowdle para reforzar la secundaria, la línea defensiva y la posición de corredor. Estos movimientos le valieron al equipo la calificación más alta entre los clubes de la AFC Norte, por delante de los Bengals con una B, los Browns con una C+ y los Ravens con una D+.
