Pittsburgh Steelers Are Down, But Are They Out?
The mighty Pittsburgh Steelers, last year’s Super Bowl champions, and the NFL leader in total Super Bowls claimed, have fallen.

NFL Quick Hits (September 11): Steelers beat Titans but lose Polamalu, McFadden named Raiders’ starting RB, and more
Steelers Troy Polamalu Possibly Out With Sprained MCL Coach Mike Tomlin wouldn’t give a definite on the injury or how much time his star saftey would miss, but it’s not looking good.
