While the Pittsburgh Steelers have much to figure out on offense, GM Omar Khan knows the defense needs a postmortem. Despite the vast resources they have invested into the unit, the defense still faltered down the stretch. Early in the season, they were in the conversation for the best defense in the league.
By the end of the year, however, the Steelers were losing games because of the defense. Granted, the offense wasn’t helping at that point, but the defense was doing enough to lose on its own. And Khan knows that they haven’t been getting their return on investment with the most expensive defense in the NFL.
