The Pittsburgh Steelers have a reputation for playing ugly. It might not get prettier against the Denver Broncos this Sunday. Previewing this weekend’s game, ESPN analyst Mina Kimes believes the Steelers’ Week 1 game could have an encore performance.
“I do think both sides could make this kind of ugly,” Kimes told guest JP Acosta. “This one feels a little bit closer to me than maybe people think.”
Denver and Pittsburgh’s defense were their better units in the opener. The Broncos recorded two safeties, the first instance by a team since 2017, and LB Jonathan Cooper had a strong game with four quarterback hits.
