Following each game in the 2024 Pittsburgh Steelers season, I will highlight the event or string of events in the game that was the turning point. Not all turning points will be earth-shattering but are meant to give a unique look at how we arrived at the outcome of the game, one that may be hard to see during the live watch.
Over the Denver Broncos’ first five drives against the Pittsburgh Steelers, they managed just 72 yards on 23 plays. Three of those drives were three-and-outs, and they only crossed the 50-yard line once. It was thorough domination by the Steelers’ defense.
