Tonight, the Pittsburgh Steelers will step into Acrisure Stadium to take on the Buffalo Bills for their second preseason game. As we did in our preview of the Houston Texans matchup, here’s an overall, position-by-position breakdown of what to watch for.
Team
Before even focusing on any position group, the Steelers must play cleaner football as a team. That’s reasonable to assume for their second time out, but it must happen. Pittsburgh was a clunky mess against Houston. Penalties, botched exchanges, missed assignments, muffed punts, high snaps, terrible punt net yardage. It all has to improve, especially knowing the Steelers plan to play all able bodies for the bulk of the first half.
