No question early in the season, the Pittsburgh Steelers secondary looked lost. Blame it on a hundred different reasons. But in large part, it came down to inexperience and a lack of comfort from that group. Terrell Edmunds, obviously a rookie, and thrust into the starting SS role because of Morgan Burnett’s injury. It was a secondary that didn’t get to play together much in camp and the preseason due to injuries from Burnett and Sean Davis, who missed chunks of the summer.
That made the Steelers coverage very vanilla.
