One of the issues more than any other that has plagued the Pittsburgh Steelers literally all season has been the inability to find success putting points on the board early in the game. With their opening-drive field goal last night, the team now has a whopping six points on their first possessions in 13 games this season, the previous score coming back in Week Three.
The week before, they punted on their first two possessions. Their first points game with three minutes left in the half. They punted twice and three an interception on their first three possessions the week before that.
