The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping that their defense can be one of the NFL’s best this year. However, it looked like more of the same from last season in Week 1. The New York Jets pushed the Steelers around, rushing for almost 200 yards as a team. Thankfully, that unit stepped up when it mattered most, coming up with a big stop to end the game. T.J. Watt spoke about how the Steelers’ defense managed to tighten things up on that final drive.
“Felt like blood in the water,” Watt said Sunday after the Steelers’ 34-32 win via the team’s YouTube channel.
