Things aren’t looking good. Period. The end. After forcing a season-high 5 turnovers against the 49ers, the Steelers found new ways to lose. It was nauseating.
After forcing 4 first-half turnovers and limiting the 49ers to 3 first-half points, the defense collapsed. Allowing 21 points in the second half, the Steelers let opportunities to capitalize on a good team making mistakes… well… get stripped away.
The offense didn’t help their teammates on the opposite side. The Steelers defense was on the field for over 70 plays for a third consecutive week.
The root cause of this?
