Are We Witnessing a Regression in Pittsburgh?

So far this 2018 season, Joe Flacco is playing like his team drafted his successor, while the Steelers are playing like wins are supposed to be handed to them.

In their clash on Sunday Night Football, Flacco passed for 363 yards and two touchdowns in the 23–14 win, withstanding an early comeback by the Steelers to lead Baltimore to three second-half field goals. The quarterback connected with 11 different receivers Sunday night, eclipsing the 300-yard mark for the second time already this season after not clearing that mark at all the entire 2017 season.
