After a brutal start to the season, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense has been better recently. It’s been key in the Steelers’ winning four of their last five games, with the final win clinching the AFC North. Without their defense stepping up, which it did at times in each of those five games, the Steelers probably aren’t still playing football right now.
But they might not be playing football much longer, according to Pro Football Focus’ Dalton Wasserman. Although the defense has improved, there’s still some leaks, some that Wasserman expects C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans to take advantage of Monday night.
