Based on the way the Pittsburgh Steelers closed the 2022 season with a 7-2 run in the second half, finishing the season 9-8, the black and gold appear to be headed on the right track back towards contention, at least according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
In a piece published Tuesday taking a look at all 32 teams based on current trajectory, Fowler placed the Steelers in the “headed on the right track” category alongside the Baltimore Ravens, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, Los Angeles Chargers, Miami Dolphins, New York Giants and Seattle Seahawks.
“The Steelers will look to make a major jump in Year 2 with quarterback Kenny Pickett, who showed promise late in the season and will have plenty of playmakers,” Fowler writes regarding the Steelers’ outlook moving forward.
