After a physical and intense victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, the Pittsburgh Steelers head into the bye week with a record of 3-2-1. With victories in three of their last four games, the Steelers head into the bye with a lot of positives but also with some significant factors to improve on. The Steelers have struggled to defend tight ends this season and with two weeks to prepare for the second half of their schedule, now is the time to correct those flaws.
The Steelers have allowed 46 receptions to tight ends this season, the most in the NFL.
