The Pittsburgh Steelers pride themselves on being a great defensive team. That’s been the standard since the 1970s. Today’s team carries on that tradition well, dragging the Steelers to victory sometimes. That’s mostly because their offense has been downright horrible over the last few years. They started off this season well but have since fallen off. For that reason, former NFL running back LeSean McCoy believes the Steelers’ defense could want to see Russell Wilson as the starting quarterback.
“[The defense has] been doing this for the last couple years, having regular average quarterback play and, ‘We have to save the day,'” McCoy said Friday on FS1’s The Facility.
