    Not a surprise at all. Just another element to consider

      Looking at Nick Herbig's draft profile: 6'2'', 30.5 inch arm length, 240 - 250 pounds, .....
      ..........and Alex Highsmith''s profile: 6'3'', 33 inch arm length, 250 pounds.

      Why wouldn't you start Salyer at LT? That's a no brainer to me.
      They generally rush from the left side.

        No brainer. Agree

The Steeler D line is getting it together. They pushed around one of the best offensive lines in the NFL last week...we have the the worst.
          Believe me, they'd rather play the game in 3 Rivers stadium.

          They have to travel across the country, and the game will be an 8 pm starting time to them.

          They are unfamiliar with the field and environment, having played So Fi stadium one time, back in 2023.

          This will be Pittsburgh's 3rd big consecutive game.

            Why do people insist in blowing up the opponent to elite status?

            Steelers won't make it to the AFC championship game .... they are very beatable.

              They are very beatable...offense is so so and pass defense is beatable but the trench matchup is really bad for us. Herbert can deal with some of the pressure but he is not Superman, there is a limit. Deculus at LT on his blind side

                Their fans love it. I have a friend from Pittsburgh. He has about 25 friends flying in. He says there are parties, BBqs and pub crawls all over LA

                  Depends on what paper you're looking at. Regardless, this game will be won or lost on the field. Our field. Eff Pberg.

                    Vegas still likes the Chargers -2.5. But the pundits seem to all think the Steelers are going wreck Herbert with their DL vs Chargers OL.

                      Pundits are wanting most reads. Vegas is about the money. Same thing but different.
