After watching the Pittsburgh Steelers play last week, it is hard to be bold this week with any level of confidence. Pittsburgh went out and stunk up Acrisure Stadium and now has to find a way to get back on track at home against the Cleveland Browns.

Here are our four boldish predictions for this week:

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been very busy this week shuffling their 53-man and practice rosters to account for the long list of injuries. The Steelers are preparing to square off against the Cleveland Browns this week and it isn’t clear just who will be available.

Having said that, the Steelers announced multiple roster moves on Friday.

The Steelers placed defensive tackle Cam Heyward on IR. They also released cornerback Anthony Brown from the practice squad. Pittsburgh promoted wide receiver Dez Fitzpatrick to the active roster to replace Diontae Johnson this week.

Pittsburgh also brought back running back Greg Bell and cornerback Luq Barcoo to the practice squad. To make room, the team placed cornerback Josiah Scott on the practice squad injured list.

The Steelers are preparing to take on the 1-0 Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football. Multiple players missed or were limited on Thursday’s practice report.

It might be put up or shut up time for the Pittsburgh Steelers offense this week. After a near-perfect preseason, Pittsburgh stumbled out of the gate against the San Francisco 49ers last week, and the offense in particular was completely out of sorts.

This week the sledding doesn’t get any easier with the Cleveland Browns coming to town. To compound things, starting wide receiver Diontae Johnson is going to be sidelined with a hamstring injury he suffered last week against the 49ers.

If the offense is going to bounce back, it’s going to fall on the shoulders of quarterback Kenny Pickett but also his top target, George Pickens. The cameras caught how frustrated was Pickens on the sideline last week. Pickens only saw four targets against San Francisco, catching three passes for just 19 yards. If the Steelers have any chance of beating the Browns this week, Pickens is going to need a much better game, and some of that falls on him.

Sunday’s performance by the Pittsburgh Steelers offense was dreadful. The Steelers scored one touchdown on the team’s final drive of the first half and finished with only 239 yards of offense. 95 of them came on that drive.

This meant the Steelers defense spent entirely too long on the field meaning the Niners offense spent a ton of time on the field scoring all those points. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco offensive tackle Trent Williams talked about this predicament and he trolled the Steelers offense big time with his response.

“At one point, you just kind of wanted (the Steelers) to get a first down,” Williams said. “There were all those three-and-outs and we kind of needed a break.”

I’m not sure there is a bigger shot you can take at a team than you say that you wish the opposing offense was a little better so you could get some rest.

After taking their lumps in Week One, the Pittsburgh Steelers have pulled themselves together and have turned their attention to a Monday Night Football showdown with the 1-0 Cleveland Browns. While the Steelers were busy getting blown out by the San Francisco 49ers, the Browns upset the Cincinnati Bengals. Here’s what everyone should be concerned about this week.

It is Tuesday and the Pittsburgh Steelers have to get back to work. There’s no time to sit around and feel sorry for themselves after getting routed by the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. It is not the time to panic but if this sort of loss doesn’t prompt some level of changes, nothing will. Here are four things we want to see happen this week.
