The Pittsburgh Steelers have come out of the first two weeks of the season at 2-0 atop the AFC North, but it was far from pretty. Last week against the Atlanta Falcons, the Steelers had 9 accepted penalties against them for 60 yards. They moved in the wrong direction against the Denver Broncos with 10 accepted penalties against them for 78 yards.
One of the main reasons the offense could never get going was because of the penalties. One wiped out a touchdown at the end of the first half to George Pickens. Another wiped out a 51-yard gain to Pickens in the second quarter.
