‘There’s No Better Test’: Rising Steelers Offense Eager To Test Its Mettle Against 2022’s Top-Ranked 49ers Defense

I’m not sure there is a more hyped unit in the National Football League right now than the Pittsburgh Steelers offense. It’s easy to imagine coming off the preseason they had, during which the first-team unit had a flawless performance. Five drives over the course of three games, all of which ended in touchdowns. You literally cannot do better.

Given where they’ve come from and where they would like to be, however, it’s understandable that the guys in the locker room are not basking in their preseason accolades. Instead, their attention is trained upon the San Francisco 49ers, the first-ranked defense from a year ago, ready to measure themselves up against the best to find how where they really stand.
