Steelers Offense Believes Slow Start Did Their Defense No Favors

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense wasn’t their biggest problem yesterday. You’ll get no argument from me. But it’s fair to point out they, along with special teams, haven’t always put the defense in the best spot. Six turnovers in Week One, which to the defense’s credit, they responded really well. And yesterday, the offense went three and out on back-to-back drives to start the game while the punt coverage unit set the Chiefs up at the ten yard line to kick things off.

After the game, several Steelers lamented the rough start they got off to.

“Not good enough especially offensively when we take the field first and we get three, three-and-outs,” Ramon Foster said post-game via the team site.
