The Pittsburgh Steelers embarrassed themselves today. In every facet of the game, they disappointed. Even Chris Boswell missed a field goal. Pressley Harvin III hung several punts short. Ray-Ray McCloud let punts bounce. And the special teams was the least offensive unit.
While the defense’s utter inability to create pressure without T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith was dreadful, the offense stole the show in ineptitude, even if you disregard the multitude of pre-snap and post-snap penalties and dropped passes. It was just not good. But you keep going, and keep working at it. That was quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s message after the game.
