The Pittsburgh Steelers are supposed to have the best defense in the NFL. After all, it is the highest-paid unit in the NFL, and it features names like T.J. Watt and Jalen Ramsey. But that defense gave up nearly 400 yards of offense to the New York Jets in its 2025 debut. Surely, the Seattle Seahawks can find some advantages to exploit if New York could.
Of course, the Jets ran the ball a lot against Pittsburgh, and that’s something Seattle should replicate. However, Justin Fields had one of the better passing performances of his career against his former team, and Sam Darnold could use a rebound himself after a shaky debut for Seattle.
