Finally, after months and months and months of waiting, the regular season is in sight. While I'm hesitant to wish away the last few weeks of summer, the football drought has gone on far too long.
The Steelers first game is against the New England Patriots in Foxboro on September 10. It's a Thursday night game, and I'm willing to be that viewership will be absolutely insane, especially considering the fierce rivalry with the backdrop of the Pats Super Bowl victory and the distracting Deflategate scandal.
What should fans keep an eye on as we anticipate week 1?
