Looking Forward to Week 1

[Steeler Nation]

With the roster being set for the start of the regular season, the Pittsburgh Steelers have their eyes set with a matchup with Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills on September 12th for the season opener. The Steelers kept a lot of players on the defensive line to start off the season, probably because of the questions surrounding Stephen Tuitt who has yet to practice with the team this off-season. Another question going into Week 1 is why there are only four cornerbacks on the current roster. I think this will change by Week 1. Where will the changes happen exactly, I believe they make some moves with all the guys they kept on the defensive line, whether that’s placing Tuitt on the injured list, or cutting someone to open a roster spot for a guy like Jimmy Moreland.






The offense comes into Week 1 with a lot of excitement as a Steeler fan because it’s a new offense with offensive coordinator, Matt Canada running the show. They draft Najee Harris in the first round of this year’s NFL Draft who looks to be as good as advertised. They draft Pat Freiermuth in the second round who could be the steal of the draft (the connection him and Ben Roethlisberger have already looks to be a scary thing for the rest of the league). This new offense looks to be a big change compared to last season which a lot of Steeler fans believe was the issue for this team last year. They will have a big test in Week 1 as they travel to Buffalo.
