Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers weren't getting much buzz going into training camp, but now, national media are discussing them as a serious dark horse candidate in the AFC. Chris Carter explains why that's happening now, and how it's tied to Kenny Pickett leading the way. Also, don't look now, but the way the Steelers have constructed their roster allows them to uniquely challenge each of their AFC North opponents in the Cincinnati Bengals, Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns. The different strengths on the roster each provide counters to the strengths of their AFC North rivals, and could play a big role in the Steelers being a dark horse team in 2023. Finally, the way this team has been built with the recent additions of Omar Khan and Andy Weidl show a potential new trend towards the future for the Steelers' front office.
