Patrick Queen stressed Jalen Ramsey's value to the Steelers' defense, highlighting his versatility to line up all over, blitz, and contribute in the run game. He said the bye week is huge for Ramsey's hamstring recovery and that Pittsburgh will need him down the stretch, with Joey Porter Jr. stepping in during the absence.

Queen's remarks illuminate how Ramsey's absence could influence late-season defensive success and fantasy scoring, and they set the stage for how Pittsburgh will manage rotations as updates roll in.

The Steelers’ offensive line stays under the microscope after Week 3, as Ben Roethlisberger calls out Broderick Jones for not staying low, stressing leverage as the essentials against edge pressure. Jones has yielded four sacks and nine pressures this season and sits with a low PFF grade, fueling debate about Pittsburgh’s protection and its impact on the offense. The talk extends to James Harrison’s hypothetical critique, while the team faces a Week 4 test against Minnesota with betting angles shifting as protection questions loom.

Patriots dodge injury bullets in Week 3 after a 21-14 setback to Pittsburgh. Drake Maye absorbed edge pressure but logged every snap, Hunter Henry left briefly with a leg issue and returned, and Jared Wilson shook off a stinger to stay in the game. TreVeyon Henderson chipped in but wasn’t sidelined by the clash. Adrenaline may mask symptoms, yet Week 4 looks plausible pending practice reports and concussion checks.

Patrick Queen’s $17,389 fine for a head/neck hit on Sam Darnold looms over a Seahawks–Steelers matchup where Darnold still delivered a TD despite a non-call flag. Tory Horton’s scoring grab would’ve been wiped by roughing the passer if called. Seahawks avoided fines for a second straight week as penalties stayed light and the NFL kept the game largely clean, leaving fantasy managers eyeing Seattle’s opportunistic offense and any potential ripple effects for Steelers defenders.
