The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense hasn’t played anywhere near the level of expectations they set for themselves ahead of the season. Juan Thornhill thought the unit could have been the best of all time, and Mike Tomlin said they could do historic things.
If they’re going to do anything historic this year, it doesn’t seem like it’s going to be in a good way. For the ridiculous amount of talent the Steelers have added on that side of the ball this year, the performance has been incredibly disappointing. Despite that, the mood seems to remain high.
