Maybe it’s just the lull of the offseason talking, but public perception of the Steelers seems to have a pretty high variance.
Some look at a team that made the playoffs last year with one of the worst quarterback rooms of all time, project even mediocre play from Russell Wilson and/or Justin Fields, and assume the team has a very viable path to ten wins.
However, there are those on the other end of the spectrum, who are absolute non-believers in the 2024 Steelers. This group regularly cites the team’s difficult schedule, and lack of true playmakers on offense as reasons why the Steelers won’t be anything close to a contender in 2024.
