Kenny Pickett Credits Success On First Down Sunday For Allowing Steelers To ‘Get To The Part Of The Playbook We Haven’t Been Able To’

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Kenny Pickett credited the team’s ability to stay on schedule with successful first-down plays to help the offense put out their best performance of the season, a 23-18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. In his postgame press conference, Pickett said that it allowed them to be aggressive in second-down situations.

“Staying ahead of the chains and being able to be aggressive in second-and-short situations when you have a successful first down run or pass, it’s huge and you’re able to get to the playbook that we haven’t been able to get to these past couple weeks.
