Snap totals reveal the Steelers threw the kitchen sink at the Chiefs, and it didn’t matter

The Pittsburgh Steelers were shellacked at home when the Kansas City Chiefs put up 42-points on the defense, and while no one wants to continue to re-hash that game, sometimes looking back can help you understand some of the decisions made, and what might be coming in the future.

Obviously, with the way the game played out in Week 2, I focused on the snap totals for the defense. I wanted to see who dominated the playing time on the defensive side of the ball, and what it all might mean.

When I looked up the snap totals, I was shocked to see there were very few players who played the vast majority of the game.
