The Pittsburgh Steelers begin their regular season next week with a home game against the Atlanta Falcons. Under new head coach Mike McCarthy, the team has implemented an entirely new offensive system following a season where the offense struggled to maintain pace. Analysts rank the interior offensive line featuring Zach Frazier and Mason McCormick as the strongest unit on the roster. The wide receiver group, including Michael Pittman Jr. and Germie Bernard, occupies the second spot, while the running back tandem of Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle is third. Tight ends and the quarterback position, led by Aaron Rodgers, follow in the rankings. The offensive tackle group is currently ranked last due to ongoing struggles during the preseason. The organization is committed to the current offensive roster as the team prepares to open the schedule.
