ESPN NFL analytics projects the Pittsburgh Steelers to finish fourth in the AFC North in 2023. Keep in mind, the Steelers haven’t finished last in the division since 1988.
The panel on ESPN’s Get Up debated it and NFL analyst Louis Riddick took great exception to Pittsburgh finishing last and when he was asked who he would put there, he made it clear. The Cleveland Browns.
The Browns win the offseason every year but it rarely materializes on the field in the regular season. Meanwhile, Riddick defended the Steelers and the pieces they have in place in a big way.
It really feels like that Riddick aside, most analysts aren’t at all sold on the Steelers taking that next step in 2022. Despite the fact that this team went 7-2 in its final nine games last season with a rookie quarterback and nearly made the playoffs.
Louis Riddick went off defending the Steelers over the Browns. My god 😳
