Steelers’ Turning Point: Missed Opportunities Let The Game Get Out Of Hand

Following each game in the 2024 Pittsburgh Steelers season, I will highlight the event, or string of events, in the game that was the turning point. Not all turning points will be earth-shattering but are meant to give a unique look at how we arrived at the outcome of the game, one that may be hard to see during the live watch.

The Steelers’ 27-24 loss was chock-full of missed opportunities and single plays that ultimately doomed the team to their first loss of the season against the Indianapolis Colts. You can point to any number of plays, and had any of them broken the other way, we are probably talking about the Steelers being 4-0 for just the second time since 1979.
