Calling them a dynamic duo might be a stretch but the pairing of Interim Offensive Coordinator Eddie Faulkner and play-caller Mike Sullivan produced encouraging results in Sunday’s win over the Cincinnati Bengals. No, the point total still looked all-too similar but the fluidity and movement of the offense ticked up in a big way, Pittsburgh going over 400 yards for the first time since Week Two of the 2020 season, breaking the NFL’s second-longest drought of the last 30 years.
Speaking to reporters after the game, Pickett acknowledged the team’s execution was the most important factor in why the Steelers had more success.
