Steelers’ struggles vs Jets raise big questions for coming AFC North battles

There was a day the road to the Super Bowl in the AFC North went through the Pittsburgh Steelers. Nowadays, it seems to go through Baltimore. While the Ravens lost to Buffalo in their season opener, it would generally be considered a positive outcome.

However, despite the loss, they demonstrated that they are still a playoff contender and posted some alarming rushing statistics. Mike Tomlin should be very concerned about them when they play the Ravens later this season based on his defense's Week 1 performance.

The Steelers victory over the Jets may look good in the standings, but there is some serious soul-searching to do after giving up 182 yards on the ground.
