All right, today we have the Pittsburgh Steelers in this video. I'll let you know if I think they're going to go over or under nine wins. Let's just hop right in and take a look at the roster. See their biggest gains and losses. So, they lost Kenneth Gainwell. I thought losing Kenneth Gainwell, that was a big loss. He really came on for them at the end of last season. Uh Calvin Austin, okay, not no big losses really other than um other than Kenneth Gainwell. Biggest gains. Uh they did they did bring on Michael Pittman, which I thought they definitely need to bring on some help in the receiver position, but I did like that pick up.

They also brought on Jamel Dean, Rico Dowdle, very nice signing there. Darnell Savage. Overall, Jaquan Brisker as well. Honestly, not a bad off-season for them. Uh in the draft, I really like Jeremy Chinnard. Brought in some help on the offensive line, but I expect I've heard good things about Jeremy Chinnard. Uh so much so I picked him up in my dynasty draft. So, I think he's going to be pretty solid, but time will tell. Let's take a look at their overall depth chart. All right, so bringing back Aaron Rodgers. So, we'll see. He's getting older, getting up there in age. If uh he does have any injuries, you got Mason Rudolph, Will Howard, Drew Aller.

We'll see between those those three who's going to be, you know, second, third string. Uh Jaylen Warren. Very solid uh year last year. Pretty decent year. I mean, not crazy, but you know, serviceable. Bringing in Rico Dowdle, who absolutely broke out last year. So, I do like that one-two punch. DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman, as well as Jeremy Chinnard, Roman Wilson. I do like the receiver core. I think they are going to take a step forward in terms of that. You got bigger, stronger receivers of Metcalf and Pittman, and Jeremy Chinnard getting in the mix. Really like that. You got Pat Freiermuth, as well as Darnell Washington.

Darnell Washington was a stud last year. He did get injured late in the season, the end of the season, so he should be 100% but they like to get him in the mix. So, looking at this roster, offensive line um decent and look at looking at their offense it's looks pretty good on paper actually. On defensive side of the ball, we got Cameron Heyward, veteran, T.J. Watt. T.J. Watt's getting up there in age, still a stud. Main thing is with him is staying injury-free. Payton Wilson, Patrick Queen, Alex Highsmith, Joey Porter Jr. Sean Elliott, Jaquan Brisker Brisker Jamel Dean, Jalen Ramsey. Honestly, their defense is pretty good.

I honestly like this team on paper. I did not look at their full roster before recording this, so looking at the roster more impressive than I really thought it was. I guess I forgot some of these off-season moves and overall roster and how well it comes together. Obviously bringing a new new coach is you know, going to have some adjustments. Bringing in Mike McCarthy was an interesting signing but I think the you know, I think he's very happy to be there and he won some fans over. Now, let's take a look at their schedule. Regular season week one, they have the Falcons. Think that'll be a win.

Think the Falcons are going to struggle this year. Then they have at Patriots, we'll call that a loss. Verse Bengals, I think they'll split verse the Bengals and that's at home, so we're going to call that a win. At Browns, I think they're going to win that one. At the same time though, usually they'll split with the Browns. We're going to call one of these a loss. We'll just give them they're a loss on there now, so we'll just give them two so far. Colts, I think they'll win. Then at Bucs, I think they can win that. That's four. At Saints, I think they can win that. That's five. The win verse the Browns at home, that's six.

Going into the bye, then they have at Bengals. I think that'll be a loss. I think they're going to split to the Bengals as well, assuming Burrow's healthy. At Eagles, we're going to call that a loss. Versus Denver Versus the Denver Broncos, we're going to call that a loss as well. Say they beat the Texans. Jaguars at Jags, we're going to call that a loss. I think the Jags are going to be tough this year. Then versus the Ravens, maybe can split versus the Ravens. That's going to be tough. Depends if Lamar Jackson's healthy. They are playing them late in the season, but we'll call that one a win at home.

Then versus the Panthers, that's nine. At Titans, >> >> I think they can win that. That's 10. And then that puts them at the Ravens, we'll call that a loss. So, I have 10 wins. Let's take a look at their Vegas total. So, Vegas has them over under at eight and a half. Honestly, given the division and the schedule, I like the over eight and a half wins. Be more comfortable taking the over six and a half or seven and a half and pairing it with another team's over under for the season, but I think that this team is pretty decent on paper. We'll see how Mike McCarthy meshes in with this team, but overall, yeah, I think I'm going to lean towards the over on the Steelers.

Let me know down in the comments section if you agree or disagree on me. I'm a Browns fan, so it's tough for me to rate the Steelers. Give them an over and compliment them this much, but honestly, looking at their team on paper, as long as Rodgers stays healthy, I'm not saying he's going to be a complete stud, but he can get the job done. Can manage the game. So, let me know if you agree or disagree in the comments. If you stayed to this point, I just want to thank you for watching this video.
