Following each game in the 2022 Steelers season, I will highlight the event or string of events in the game that is 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 first live watch.
It felt like just another week as a Steelers fan through one half of week four, losing to a seemingly inferior opponent and hardly any output from the offense. Even after some luck had finally swung the Steelers’ way in the way of a roughing the passer penalty that set up a Chris Boswell 59-yard field goal before halftime, the energy inside Acrisure Stadium was about as high as an October Pirates game in PNC Park.
