After the 2024 season ended, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ fan base was extremely frustrated. They’d just seen yet another season end in excruciatingly mediocre fashion, and some even hoped for the Steelers to think about a rebuild. They clearly aren’t doing so. In fact, their busy offseason built a lot of excitement. The Steelers came into this season with much more pedigree at quarterback and had plenty of big names added to the defense.
After a 4-1 start, dreams of becoming something more than a first-round exit seemed like they were finally coming to fruition. However, the Steelers have crashed back to earth, showing signs of yet another nine or 10-win season, if that.
