The Pittsburgh Steelers are eight games into the 2023 season. One could reasonably say that six of those games went down to the wire, or close to it; of those six, they managed to win five of them, including three ending in game-winning drives.
For those in the locker room, it’s all a product of their makeup. It’s what they preach to one another. That has a lot to do with why they have been able to find a lot of success this year when managing to keep the game close.
“Just the grit and the fight from the team”, OT Broderick Jones said of the Steelers’ ability to pull out wins in close games, via the team’s website.
