Well…glad that’s over. Winners and losers from the Pittsburgh Steelers abysmal 33-3 loss to the New England Patriots in the regular season opener.
WINNERS
James Washington: Very few positives tonight but Washington at least set up the Steelers first scoring drive. Don’t ask me why he so willingly floated out of bounds but he showed the ability to get vertical tonight, something this offense needs if it wants to get back on track. His 45 yard catch was something to get at least a little excited about.
Run Defense: New England didn’t need to run the ball to win this one but the Steelers were stout enough when called upon.
