‘This Team’s Been Done For A While:’ Former NFL Safety Says Steelers’ Late-Season Swoon Was Coming

After the Pittsburgh Steelers dropped to 7-7 following a 30-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, the team fell to 10th in the AFC playoff race and faces a real uphill climb to make the postseason. While they were alive in the playoff race heading into the game, former NFL safety Kerry Rhodes said that the Steelers have been down “for a while.”

“A lot of fluke wins happened throughout the season that kind of kept them afloat. And so you see the record 7-4, which could easily be 4-7, even at the point they were,” Rhodes said on Fox Sports Radio.
