As I’m certain you do in joining me, I found myself waiting with bated breath all offseason to get Adam Schein’s take on the Pittsburgh Steelers for the upcoming season. And he finally delivered, uninspiringly, in an article for the league’s website published yesterday in which he examined the playoff cases for nine different bubble teams (because nine rhymes with Schein, you know).
The Steelers were the seventh of the nine teams that he examined, in a simple ‘case for’ and ‘case against’ format, with an ensuing ‘early take’ conclusion. And he came away unimpressed with the net gains and losses for Pittsburgh this year.
