Consistency of execution is asking too much. Even Pro Football Focus concedes that Myles Garrett loses a pass rush rep once every other month or so. Consistency of effort, however, should be a given. It hasn’t always been this year, particularly with respect to the mission the Pittsburgh Steelers set out for themselves entering this season, which was to play bully ball, as they did against Seattle.
The good news is they’ve made significant strides in that department lately. The results aren’t always there, but the effort is, the physicality is. The last three games in particularly have been witness to a growing confidence within particularly the offense as they wage war on the line of scrimmage.
