The Pittsburgh Steelers are creating quite a buzz in the NFL world, even before the season has officially begun. With uncertainty surrounding their starting quarterback position, fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming season to see who will lead their team on the field.
The Steelers made headlines by trading for Justin Fields after his former team, the Chicago Bears, acquired the rights to Caleb Williams. However, just before that trade, they also signed Russell Wilson in a free-agent deal. Now, both quarterbacks are competing for the starting job, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans.
According to data from StubHub, the Steelers‘ first game of the season against the Atlanta Falcons is the third-most in-demand game of the entire NFL season. Surprisingly, the two games ahead of them on the list are also Steelers matchups. The game against the Dallas Cowboys at home and the game against the Las Vegas Raiders on the road are the top two most sought-after games.
This high demand for Steelers games is not surprising, considering the popularity of the Cowboys and Raiders, who rank as the top two in-demand teams on StubHub for the season. The Cowboys will play in five of the top-10 best-selling games of the season, while the Raiders see a significant number of ticket sales from non-Nevada residents.
The Steelers‘ consistent success on the field has also contributed to their popularity among fans. The team has not finished with a losing record since 2003, making them a perennial contender and a fan favorite. Pittsburgh fans are known for their loyalty and willingness to travel to support their team, adding to the excitement surrounding the upcoming season.
As the NFL season approaches, the anticipation for the Steelers‘ games continues to grow. With a competitive quarterback battle and a strong fan base, the team is poised to deliver an exciting and memorable season for football enthusiasts. Stay tuned for more updates and news on the Pittsburgh Steelers as they gear up for the upcoming season.
