Steelers 2026 Season Prediction<\/p>\n

Despite the transition from Mike Tomlin to Mike McCarthy, our Ralph Vacchiano expects a familiar finish in Pittsburgh. He’s predicting the Steelers to go 9-8.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“So much of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ season is riding on the old shoulders of Aaron Rodgers \u2014 whether he plays again, or whether he can defy his age for one more season. Whoever their quarterback is will immediately have a tougher challenge if Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow can stay healthy, making the AFC North games much more of a minefield,” Vacchiano wrote.<\/p>\n

Steelers’ 2026 Projected Win Total<\/p>\n

The Steelers’ projected win total for the 2026 season currently sits at 7.5 wins at FanDuel Sportsbook. Their odds to win the Super Bowl sit at +7500, making them a longshot to win it all. Their odds to make the playoffs are +175.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Steelers’ Notable Offseason Moves<\/p>\n

The Steelers\u2019 offseason was highlighted by the hiring of Mike McCarthy and the ongoing question surrounding whether Aaron Rodgers will return to the team this season. Pittsburgh also made upgrades on offense, signing running back Rico Dowdle and acquiring wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. in a trade with the Indianapolis Colts.<\/p>\n

The defense saw improvements as well with the additions of defensive tackle Sebastian Joseph-Day and former Chicago Bears safety Jaquan Brisker. During the NFL Draft, the Steelers continued to bolster the offensive line by selecting Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor and Iowa’s Gennings Dunker.<\/p>\n

How We’ve Assessed The Steelers’ offseason<\/p>\n

Following the draft, our Ralph Vacchiano placed the Steelers at No. 24 in his power rankings<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This draft would\u2019ve looked better if the Eagles hadn\u2019t stolen Makai Lemon from them in the first round,” Vacchiano wrote.<\/p>\n

Pittsburgh’s draft haul was one of this year’s best, earned a A- grade<\/a> from our draft analyst, Rob Rang.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Whether [Drew] Allar lives up to his upside or not, this was the kind of draft Steelers fans deserved and it kicks off the Mike McCarthy era in fine form,” Rang wrote.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Terrible Towels can officially start waving again as the Pittsburgh Steelers\u2019 2026 schedule has arrived.\u00a0 Pittsburgh\u2019s road…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":192959,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[3269,4916,11848,63046,4919,76713,61956,4849,3537,73,75,74,1833,39228,8208],"class_list":["post-192958","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pittsburgh","tag-aaron-rodgers","tag-baltimore-ravens","tag-betting","tag-jaquan-brisker","tag-lamar-jackson","tag-max-iheanachor","tag-michael-pittman-jr","tag-national-football-league","tag-nfl-draft","tag-pittsburgh","tag-pittsburgh-headlines","tag-pittsburgh-news","tag-pittsburgh-steelers","tag-rico-dowdle","tag-super-bowl"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192958","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=192958"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192958\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/192959"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=192958"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=192958"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=192958"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
