At this point in the 2023 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers seem like quite the punching bag for Fox Sports talking head Colin Cowherd.
In previous weeks, he’s lamented the lack of change the organization has undergone offensively, sticking with Matt Canada. He’s questioned if Kenny Pickett can be the guy under center, and he’s even questioned Pittsburgh’s roster construction, spending big on the defense in an offensive league.
And yet, coming out of the Sunday Night Football win over the Las Vegas Raiders that was aided by three turnovers forced and four sacks by that star-studded, expensive defense, Cowherd has the Steelers inside his top 10 teams entering Week Four in the NFL, thanks in large part to their defense.
