It was a brilliant start for the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Facing the 3-8-1 Arizona Cardinals, Mike Tomlin’s team opened the week as a pick’em. However, it didn’t take long for the Steelers to jump out to a lead.
The first quarter was brilliantly executed. Pittsburgh’s defense barely allowed an inch to Kyler Murray and company. After a field goal and a beautiful 85-yard punt return for a touchdown, the Steelers held a 10-0 lead in the first quarter.
The second quarter didn’t exactly go as planned. Arizona head coach, Kliff Kingsbury, found a way to nullify the Steelers pass rush by increasing the tempo.
