Teryl Austin needs to be on the hot seat after consecutive dreadful performances

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense has fallen off a cliff.

In their last two games, they have allowed 54 points and have been picked apart in all facets. Against the Philadelphia Eagles, A.J. Brown and Devonta Smith each had over 100 yards and the Eagles held the ball for over 40 minutes, including the last 10 minutes and change in the fourth quarter. Against Baltimore, Derrick Henry ran for over 160 yards as Baltimore dominated the Steelers up front. On top of that, the Steelers have allowed 19 touchdowns on their opponents last 28 trips.
