Key Takeaways:

  • The Steelers are currently +185 to make the playoffs, giving them a 35% chance to make it to the postseason. 
  • The Steelers have an 11.1% chance to win the AFC North in 2024
  • The Steelers lost to the Bills in the first round of the 2023 NFL Playoffs

George Pickens scores a touchdown

The Steelers finished the regular season 10-7, mastering the art of winning ugly. Despite the winning the record, the Steelers have a net negative in points, leaving Steeler Nation far from satisfied.

The team wasted no time making an effort to improve the team for the 2024 season.

The biggest name of note is former Broncos and Seahawks QB Russell Wilson. Wilson and the Broncos were at odds after being benched at the end of 2023. Now Wilson and the Steelers are hoping to get back to their playoff winning potential.

To improve on an already stout defense, the Steelers are adding former Ravens star LB Patrick Queen. Queen is coming off of his best season yet, and his presence will make for an immediate impact for the Steelers defense.

After 5 seasons, the Steelers are parting ways with WR Diontae Johnson. The Steelers have agreed to send the WR to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for CB Donte Jackson and a pick swap. Johnson was the longest tenured player on the Steelers offense.

Key Contributors Toward Steelers Playoff Chances

T.J. Watt lead the NFL with 19 sacks on the season. Watt achieved this mark despite missing multiple games due to injury. He finished 2nd in voting for the AP Defensive Player of the Year Award.

George Pickens took a step forward in year 2 and was one of the few bright spots on the otherwise dull Steelers offense. 

Pickens hauled in 63 receptions for 1,1140 yards and 5 touchdowns.

Here are the current prop odds for some notable Steelers players in striking distance to win an award for the 2024 season:

Looking Ahead: Steelers Playoff Picture

Right now, every team is doing their best to put themselves in position to make the playoffs in 2024. After making the playoffs in 2023, the Steelers are utilizing free agency, trades, and soon to be the draft to not just make the playoffs, but make a run at the Super Bowl.

Sports betting is legal in PA, and you can place bets at BetMGM, Caesar's, Fanduel, DraftKings, and more. PA sports betting sites aren't very high on the Steelers winning a division title, a conference championship game or the Super Bowl, so you can get some pretty good odds on them right now.  

I recommend checking out the most recent Pennsylvania sportsbook promo codes prior to placing your first Steelers bet.

Steelers Postseason Outlook and Predictions

Just making the playoffs isn't enough to keep Steeler Nation satisfied. Making the post season in what felt like a humiliating 2023 season was something to hold heads high about. 

The 2024 season will largely come down to the play of newly acquired QB Russell Wilson. If he can get back to playing how he did in Seattle, the Steelers could make a serious run to the playoffs.
