Round two. Below is a series of non-traditional “awards” to hand out at midseason, and a check-in on our preseason projections for these same categories. A more traditional version of this list went live this week as well, but this one is a little more off the path.
As usual, I’ll include a short descriptor for each award, and an argument for my own choice. Then there will be a poll to see where Steelers Nation believes the hardware belongs. After that, we hash it out in the comments.
Let’s go.
The Shorthand Version:
People’s Choice Award: Jaylen Warren
People’s Goat “Award”: Chuks Okorafor
Biggest Disappointment: Third down offense
Pleasant Surprise: Rookie contributions
Weakest Link: Cornerbacks
Unsung Hero: Mason Cole
Biggest Loss: T.
