Pittsburgh Steelers knee jerk reactions: Week 2 showed everything we were afraid of

Stating the obvious. This season has gotten off to a terrible start. Two games and zero wins. This week, losing to a 23-year old, second-year QB. Who the Steelers’ defense made look like an All World player. As I watched today’s game unfold, three questions stood out.

Where’s the pass defense?

The defense couldn’t throw a blanket on anyone. As evidenced by Patrick Mahomes stat line: 23 completions in 28 attempts, for 326 yards, six TDs and a 154.80 QB rating. Unacceptable. For any team. Especially, in a city known for the “Steel Curtain.”

It wasn’t one or two people playing badly.
