A myriad of Steelers defenders had bad games on Sunday. It simply was too large and wide scale to make separate film rooms on, so I may as well condense it all into it. Regardless, after having weeks of extremely solid play from the defense, the Steelers defense took a step back. Partially schematically, because Keith Butler blitzed less than 20% of the time, per my charting. However, just fundamentally, it seemed all these guys had trouble getting themselves grounded, bar Morgan Burnett, Javon Hargrave, and Cameron Heyward.
Here, it is, the sad state of what was defense for the Steelers on Sunday, and yet, they only gave up twenty-four points.
