Steelers 2020 Season Preview
Ready to check out our 2020 Pittsburgh Steelers Total Predictions? The Steelers lost Big Ben last season, but still surprised some people finishing the season 8-8. They lost some key players last season and their offense still proved to be capable. If they can have a successful draft, even without a first round pick, this team could have a really competitive campaign in 2020. Here is a look at their off-season to this point and what we can expect.

The Steelers finished 8-8 and 2nd in the AFC North last season. They traded for Minkah Fitzpatrick for a first round pick, which sent people wondering if this team is rebuilding or aiming to win.
After the trade, they competed for a wild card spot for a good duration of the season.
2020 is a make or break season for the Steelers as franchise altering changes may follow, depending on performance.
They have a quarterback that is on the heavy back end of his career that is plagued with a variety of injuries.
This season hinges on him and his health.
Here is a look at the best moves the Steelers have made to this point and how said moves will improve their roster.

Key Free Agents Acquisitions
- Eric Ebron
- Derek Watt
- Stefen Wisniewski
The Steelers have had one of if not the most underwhelming off-season in the league. They have only signed four outside free agents and only one impact starter.
Eric Ebron is by far the biggest signing this team has made. He was one of the biggest bargains on the market this off-season as he only signed for 6 million per year. He will serve as the best redzone threat for the Steelers and essential in the passing attack.
Derek Watt may seem expensive, but the Steelers utilize fullbacks and Watt may be able to carve out a healthy role in this offense. He may line up on the outside quite a few times.
Wisniewski will compete for a starting job on the offensive line this season as they lost Finney to Seattle. If he can secure a spot, he will be a huge bargain for the Steelers.
2020 Pittsburgh Steelers Predictions: Off Season Analysis
The team didn’t get better, but didn’t lose anyone essential besides Javon Hargrave. If Big Ben comes back successfully from his injury, this team will be much improved.
This team is extremely dependent on him and how well he performs, if at all. Expect the Steelers to make more moves come draft day as they may look to trade into the first round.
2020 Pittsburgh Steelers Win Total Prediction
An O/U of 9 is perfect, in my opinion. There is a lot of risk in the over, however, as an over bettor would be depending on the health of Big Ben.
I don’t know if that is a smart move at this point, so I will take a push at 9 wins and a possible wild card playoff berth.
