The Steelers are in the midst of what’s been a pretty remarkable six-game winning streak. The offense is as efficient as it is volcanic, finishing more than 75 percent of its red-zone drives with touchdowns and scoring at a 35 points-per-game clip. That an outfit featuring Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and the suddenly-unstoppable James Conner is producing at such an astonishing rate shouldn’t come as much of a surprise.
What should surprise you is the abrupt vitality of the secondary, which was an overflowing trash barge during the first quarter of the season.
