Of course the Steelers, armed with the power duo of wide receiver Antonio Brown and running back Le’Veon Bell, must make this list. They are about as threatening as any when it comes to analyzing the league’s receiver/back tandems.

It is no shock that Steelers locked up Brown for another four years after he nabbed 106 catches for 1,284 yards and 12 touchdowns last season. More spectacularly, Brown has averaged 1,578 yards and nearly 11 touchdowns per year his last four seasons. He is truly an athletic freak of nature, something he documents on social media which highlights how devoted he is to keeping in the best shape possible.

As for Bell, his talents are limitless on the field. He packs a dual-threat punch both in piling up yards on the ground and catching passes through the air. During the course of just 12 games in 2016, Bell recorded 1,884 total yards and nine touchdowns. Just imagine if he had been on the field all season.

Nevertheless, Bell tallied only five less receptions than Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson. He also averaged the second-most rushing yards (105.7) per tilt.

The best news when it comes to the Steelers offense is that quarterback Ben Roethlisberger plans to stick around versus retiring in 2017. Provided he stays healthy, Pittsburgh’s offense should once again be a force this year.
