For many years, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ success for failure lay totally on the shoulders of Ben Roethlisberger and what he could muster up with his offensive weapons, behind an eventually strong offensive line. We saw basically the exact opposite last year, with the defense doing most of the heavy lifting and making more impact plays than anybody else in the league.
That was because Roethlisberger was sidelined for almost 15 games, of course, but is expected to return in 2020. Assuming that he does, will the defense be there to match his group? Guys like T.
