Even though they lost, the Pittsburgh Steelers proved that their starting offense can actually score. Cordarrelle Patterson burst through a hole and flew into the endzone, helping to quiet some of the offense’s doubters. However, that wouldn’t have been possible without Russell Wilson connecting with George Pickens on a long third down. It was a nice pitch and catch, and Pickens seems very happy to have gotten that opportunity.
