Struggling Steelers offense knows it needs more George Pickens

PITTSBURGH -- With two touchdowns through two games, the Pittsburgh Steelers' offense has certifiably lost its mojo.

The Steelers are averaging 247 yards per game, second-fewest in the NFL -- and 75 fewer per game than a season ago. After finishing the season with one interception in his final eight games, quarterback Kenny Pickett has thrown three picks to two touchdowns in the first two weeks of a highly anticipated second season, one that only attracted more hype with a near-flawless preseason and training camp. And, they're going to be without receiver Diontae Johnson until at least the Week 6 bye.
