The Pittsburgh Steelers turned their 2022 season around not just with a more effective ground game, not just with T.J. Watt’s return, but by taking unbelievable care of the football. Eliminate turnovers and you immediately give yourself a chance to win games.
After throwing eight interceptions in his first five games, QB Kenny Pickett threw only pick following the team’s bye week, the Steelers going 7-2 down the stretch and nearly making the playoffs are looking dead in the water. Intentionally, Pittsburgh was hyper-conservative and that choice paid off.
Through the first month of 2023, a full training camp and three preseason games, Pickett and this Steelers’ offense is taking more shots.
