Everyone has their opinion and analysis on the state of the Pittsburgh Steelers. But ex-player and Hall of Famer Mel Blount’s words carry more weight than most. Examining the Steelers’ roster, Blount doesn’t like what he sees. Joining Ben Roethlisberger on the latest edition of his Footbahlin podcast, Blount critiqued the team.
