After a strong end to the 2022 season, and an offseason that has been praised constantly by the media, the Pittsburgh Steelers are being talked about as a team that could make some noise this year. One person who believes this is former NFL player and current analyst Brian Baldinger. Baldinger was recently in Pittsburgh to watch some of minicamp and came away very impressed.
On the In The Huddle podcast with Baldinger and Carl Dukes, Baldinger said he believes thr Steelers could be very competitive, but it depends on their quarterback.
“If Kenny Pickett takes any kind of a step — and he played really good in the second half of the season, won some big games for them — if he plays with the level of consistency that they need, that anybody needs at that position, and what they’ve done on the offensive line, how they’ve upgraded it, the heavy competition on the defensive and offensive lines, which both needed to be upgraded, this could be a highly competitive team,” Baldinger said.
