The first four games of the season have been anything but pretty for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Though they sit at 2-2 on the season, there are major concerns with the team that had so much hype and anticipation coming into the year.
The offense can’t seem to do anything right: they can’t pass protection, certainly can’t run the ball consistently and the second-year quarterback has regressed heavily. Defensively, Pittsburgh can’t stop the run and when they aren’t generating consistent pressure the secondary simply can’t hold up well enough in coverage to negate the opponent’s passing attack.
For star defensive lineman Cameron Heyward, who is currently on Injured Reserve, everything is a process right now with a lot of new guys learning on the fly and growing.
