Welcome to the STEELERS NOW PREGAME SCOUT, our new podcast highlighting the Xs and Os of the Steelers’ next game! Steelers Now analyst Derrick Bell joins host Matt Gajtka again to break things down.

What changes can we expect for the Pittsburgh offense, even if the leadership switch happened just a few days ago? How much does the onus shift onto Kenny Pickett to turn his season around with seven games to play?

Also, is there any reason to *not* expect another low-scoring brawl, with the Steelers leaning on defense and the run game to keep it close? What are some key matchups on both sides of the ball against the Joe Burrow-less Bengals?
