Through two games, the Pittsburgh Steelers have scored 31 points, and 24 of them have come from the leg of Chris Boswell. It is troubling that the offense can’t finish drives in the end zone, but it is equally impressive that Boswell has been so automatic to start the season. Arthur Smith is still getting used to having a kicker of that caliber.
When the Steelers finished their opening drive in Week 1 at the 39-yard line, Arthur Smith assumed they would have to punt. Much to his surprise, Mike Tomlin sent out Boswell.
“I’ve been around a lot of great players and kickers, and certainly this isn’t a slight to anybody, but Boz is different than anybody I’ve been around,” Smith said in a video posted by TribLive’s Chris Adamski on X.
