I LEARNED A LOT IN THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS’ PRESEASON OPENER


The Pittsburgh Steelers are officially undefeated in 2018, but there was good and bad in their preseason debut win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
The Steelers’ first preseason game went as well as anyone could have guessed. A 31-14 win over the defending Super Bowl champions is always a great way to start the season. But the game showed a lot – both good and bad, leaving plenty of first impressions within the roster.
Players were both, making a case for the 53-man roster, and proving their hype was a little too high. Maybe the first preseason game isn’t the perfect indication of who deserves to be on the final roster and who doesn’t. A number of players certainly made a strong first case, though.
From start to finish, it felt great to see Steelers football back in action. There is a lot of hope for not only this year, but the future. It’s only opening week of the preseason, but Pittsburgh football is back, and they showed a lot of promise.
Three games left and there is already enough news to last the rest of the preseason. It’s the best time of the year, once again. Now, let’s see what we learned in the Steelers 2018 opener.
