The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing significant challenges, having dropped to last place in the AFC North. The team's issues include inadequate coordinators, a lack of elite quarterbacks, a mediocre offensive line, and a decimated linebacker core. Head coach Mike Tomlin acknowledges that the team is playing losing football and describes them as a fundamentally poor football group. The Steelers have lost three consecutive games, had their starting quarterback injured, and benched their backup, resulting in their fall from leading their division to being out of the playoff seeding.

The #Steelers problems are infinite: Inadequate coordinators on offense & defense. No elite QB. Mediocre OL. Diva WRs & no WR1. No depth at TE. Center can’t effectively snap. LB core decimated. Tomlin tactically inadequate. Major changes needed. #HereWeGo
