After an 11-game run, the Pittsburgh Steelers lost a game. There’s some relief that comes with the loss, and Pittsburgh should be glad to have that target off its back.
Now that that’s out of the way, the Steelers need to give themselves a good, hard look in the mirror — starting with offensive play-calling. Pittsburgh has been extremely lucky dink-and-dunk has worked in their favor for this long.
Their one-dimensional offense is no longer feasible, and it needs to be reworked — pronto. Completely starting over at this point in the season is impossible, so I sure hope the Steelers have a bag of tricks up their sleeve.
Here’s what we saw in Pittsburgh’s 23-17 loss to Washington.
