Steelers são classificados atrás de Bengals e Ravens na AFC North

O analista da FOX Sports, Ralph Vacchiano, colocou o Pittsburgh Steelers abaixo do Cincinnati Bengals e do Baltimore Ravens em seu ranking da AFC North para a temporada de 2026.

Os Steelers iniciam o ano como os atuais campeões da divisão, mas receberam notas baixas devido ao seu desempenho na temporada passada. Vacchiano observou que a equipe terminou com o 25º pior ataque e a 26ª pior defesa da NFL, apesar do retrospecto de 10-7. As adições na intertemporada incluem o running back Rico Dowdle e o wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. A equipe também contratou Mike McCarthy como treinador principal e Patrick Graham como coordenador defensivo, enquanto deposita suas esperanças no quarterback de 42 anos, Aaron Rodgers. Os Bengals e os Ravens fortaleceram seus elencos nesta intertemporada, o que contribuiu para a posição inferior dos Steelers. O Football Power Index da ESPN já havia atribuído aos Steelers baixas probabilidades de chegar aos playoffs e vencer o Super Bowl.
