The Pittsburgh Steelers are sitting pretty at 6-2 heading into their bye week. A huge reason is their philosophy of extreme importance in taking care of the football on offense and turning it over on defense.
Today, I’ll look at and provide turnover differential data, which is takeaways (defensive turnovers) – giveaways (offensive turnovers) through Week 2:
Pittsburgh ties for second in the NFL with a plus-10 turnover differential with the Detroit Lions. The only team with a stronger mark is the Buffalo Bills, in first place with an plus-11 turnover differential. Great company to be in, with all three substantially stronger than the rest of the NFL through Week 8.
