It takes more than X’s and O’s to win football games in the NFL. That’s one thing I’ve learned watching the Pittsburgh Steelers over the years. Grit, depth, and the“next man up” mentality often mean more than the perfect game plan. The Steelers, sitting at 2-1, are proof of that. Their record looks solid on paper, but if you’ve been paying attention, you know it’s been anything but smooth sailing.
Injuries, inconsistencies, and adjustments have defined their season so far, and now, as they head overseas to face the Minnesota Vikings in Dublin, Ireland, another challenge has emerged.
