The Fan's Andrew Fillipponi predicted the Steelers will face an NFC North opponent on Monday Night Football in Week 1.

The Pittsburgh Steelers pulled off a surprise trade after the NFL Draft, trading away their leading receiver of the past two seasons in George Pickens. The move was especially surprising after the team acquired DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks, with many fans gearing up for an explosive receiver tandem.

The Pittsburgh Steelers sent one of their top receiver options to the Dallas Cowboys last week, and defensive lineman Cam Heyward trusts that the move could work out well.

Former NFL quarterback and current NBC Sports analyst Chris Simms does not see the hype with Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Will Howard. Simms says Howard’s arm is below average, which is exactly why he fell as long as he did to the Steelers in the sixth round, and that will naturally cap his upside.
