The state of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense through the first five weeks of the 2023 season has been a hot topic for the fan base as well as the national media as the high-flying, prolific offense we saw during the first three weeks of the preseason has come crashing back down to earth during regular season play.
The same first-team offense that scored on every possession during preseason play has looked lethargic, lost, and overmatched in a majority of Pittsburgh’s games thus far, boasting a running game that has yet to see the end zone as well as a passing game where QB Kenny Pickett is missing open throws and scrambling from clean pockets early.
