Ryan Clark with some hard truth about the Steelers roster: ‘Zero people care about the Steeler way’

On Monday, former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark was on the Pat McAfee Show to talk about the Steelers and their struggles. Clark is one of the most outspoken former Steelers in media and he never holds back.

Clark is also uniquely qualified to critique this team as he was part of a Steelers defense that was easily one of the most feared in NFL history. It was a unit that was all in on the “Steelers Way” as it were. In fact, the entire team on both sides of the football was the standard we all talk about when we say “the standard is the standard.”

According to Clark, when discussing the locker room he made it blunt when he said “Zero people care about the Steeler way.”

While we don’t disagree, it’s a bitter pill to swallow when you consider guys like Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt and Minkah Fitzpatrick are on the team. These are the players you hope are still in that mold and can pull this team back. But the truth is even if those three are still all in, there are just too many guys on the roster right now who are playing for themselves.
