The Pittsburgh Steelers certainly had issues in all three phases of the game in Sunday’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. While it certainly wasn’t the main reason why the Steelers lost to the Chiefs, what transpired immediately after the Pittsburgh defense tackled Kansas City running back Kareem Hunt certainly didn’t help matters.
After the safety, the Chiefs had to perform a free kick from their own 20-yard-line and it’s obvious the Steelers receiving team wasn’t sure how to line up. This confusion resulted in Steelers running back Stevan Ridley being penalized 5 yards for an illegal formation and that wiped out a 20-yard return by wide receiver Antonio Brown to the Pittsburgh 47-yard-line.
