One week after jumping all the way up to No. 13 in the NFL following a stretch of play that saw them gaining more and more respect as the season wore on, the Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line had a rough go of things in Orchard Park in Week 5 — much like the rest of the Steelers’ roster — causing the position group to fall nine spots in the latest offensive line rankings from Pro Football Focus Wednesday.
The Steelers fell from No. 13 overall to No. 22 overall, dropping nine spots as the unit struggled against a terrific Buffalo front seven, allowing three sacks of rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett in his first career start, while also allowing a ton of pressures and generally struggling to run the football before being made into a one-dimensional offense.
