Taken globally, neither the offense nor the defense for the Pittsburgh Steelers has been particularly impressive this season. Sure, both sides of the ball have their playmakers who have produced from electrifying moments, but there’s a reason they have minus-30 point differential despite having a winning record.
Yet as on offense, the biggest difference has often been the play in the fourth quarter. Their numbers are better almost across the board in the final frame, giving up fewer yards and points than in any other quarter. They have three game-winning drives on offense, with QB Kenny Pickett being particularly “awesome”, and a go-ahead defensive touchdown in the final quarter as well.
