The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense is not good right now. It’s hard to believe that a defense that the organization has invested so heavily in is playing this poorly, but it is. Star OLB T.J. Watt has failed to register a sack through the first two games. The run defense has given up nearly 300 yards so far. And the Steelers have given up over 30 points in each game.
The struggles are frustrating the fans and the players. You can also count former NFL head coach (and Steelers offensive coordinator) Bruce Arians among those frustrated folks. The Steelers believe that defense should always be a strong suit.
