As bad as things turned for the Steelers in Chicago, they turned around for them Sunday in Baltimore. Seven days can make a world of difference in the NFL, and it did just that for the Steelers.
What’s wrong with Le’Veon Bell? After Sunday, nothing. What’s wrong with the Steelers run defense? Not much. What’s wrong with team unity after the anthem debacle in Chicago? It seems to be right back on track.
So, too, is their pursuit of excellence. Heading into Monday night’s game, Washington at Kansas City, the Steelers at 3-1 were tied for the second-best record in the NFL.
