Through two games, the top topic about the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense is a lack of aggression. Not enough vertical shots, too many short throws in an offense that is anything but a well-oiled machine. Speaking with reporters during a Monday press conference via the team’s YouTube channel, Mike Tomlin said QB Mitch Trubisky and the Steelers’ offense as a whole can be more aggressive.
“I think he could,” Tomlin said when asked if Trubisky could be more aggressive. “And we could.”
On the season, Trubisky is averaging just 5.1 yards per attempt. Of the 33 qualified quarterbacks, that number is 32nd, only ahead of Dallas’ Dak Prescott, who played in just one game before suffering an injury.
