DETROIT — JuJu Smith-Schuster says he has picked out a Halloween costume, but “it’s a surprise.” It can’t be better than what he pulled off Sunday night, when he showed up to the Steelers game as Antonio Brown.
Smith-Schuster caught a 97-yard touchdown pass, and finished with a Brown-like 193 receiving yards for what might just be the best team in football. The Steelers beat the Lions, 20–15. They are now 6–2 and not terribly impressed with themselves. They think they can play better. They are correct. By January, this may be the scariest team in the NFL—with home-field advantage, too.
