‘Acting Like The Browns’: Steelers No. 20 In The Athletic’s Week 1 Power Rankings

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been a picture of stability throughout their storied history, but one NFL writer believes that they are acting more like the hapless Cleveland Browns.

That would be The Athletic’s Josh Kendall, who compiles the Power Rankings weekly for The Athletic. In the pre-Week 1 power rankings that he released Tuesday morning, Kendall has the Steelers ranked 20th in the NFL.

“The Steelers are acting like the Browns this preseason. I’m sorry, Pittsburgh fans, I know that hurts. The Steelers have an old quarterback cast off by another team [Russell Wilson] and a young quarterback cast off by another team [Justin Fields],” Kendall writes regarding the Steelers in his power rankings.
