Growth isn’t linear, especially in professional sports. There are going to be bumps in the road along the way, and the offensive line of the Pittsburgh Steelers has experienced that in the last year and a half.
There have been some highs. There have been some lows.
But right now, the offensive line as a collective is playing some pretty good football, especially coming off a performance in which the Steelers rushed for a season-high 186 yards and the offensive line allowed just two pressures on the afternoon.
On top of that, the group is playing smart, sound football and avoiding penalties in the process.
