The Pittsburgh Steelers are very close to being able to boast a true championship-caliber defense, but there have been a couple puzzling performances over the first eight games that are cause for concern. One of those was their most recent game against the New York Giants.
They only allowed 18 points, which is good enough to win most games, but allowed 394 total yards, including 157 on the ground. They actually lost the time of possession battle, which is something they have mostly been dominating this year.
Jon Gruden knows the Steelers’ coaching staff isn’t happy with that performance.
