Steelers Offense ‘Depends’ On George Pickens’ Big-Play Abilities, Making Him Most Important Non-QB, Analyst Says

For the third straight game, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be without standout wide receiver George Pickens. That creates a significant hole offensively as the Black and Gold head to M&T Bank Stadium to take on the Baltimore Ravens in a pivotal AFC North matchup Saturday.

Without Pickens, the Steelers’ offense has struggled in the last two games. Pittsburgh went 1-1 in those two games, beating the Cleveland Browns with 27 points scored and losing to the Philadelphia Eagles with just 13 points scored. Despite the 27 points scored against the Browns in Week 14, the offense has largely been a mess, particularly in the passing game.
