I don’t think anybody could put forth a coherent argument detailing the Pittsburgh Steelers’ ails that doesn’t focus heavily on the offensive side of the ball. Putting up points has clearly been their weakest link for the past two years. Yet it would also be foolish to let the defense off the hook.
And DL Cameron Heyward isn’t about to do that. Commenting on the I Am Athlete podcast recently talking about the state of the team, he spent some time taking his own unit to task and acknowledging their culpability.
“I think the one thing that’s going unchecked in all this is defense, and that comes to my side of the ball”, he said.
