Eagles-Steelers : What Did We Learn?

PITTSBURGH -- The Eagles shut out the Steelers, 17-0, on Thursday night in their second preseason game. Here are 10 things we learned:

1. Jim Schwartz’s defense might be legitimately good. The Steelers were without four of their best offensive weapons, so any enthusiasm about the Eagles defense should be tempered with the fact that Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, Le’Veon Bell and DeAngelo Williams didn’t play a single down at Heinz Field. But for the second week in a row, Schwartz’s units forced more than four turnovers, had more than three sacks, and held an opposing offense to fewer than 10 points.
