The Pittsburgh Steelers are projected to have a good defense again in 2021, but these three players will be pivotal to the team’s success.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have shown that defense can win them. In times when offensive production was down, the Steel Curtain has been able to prevail. The Steelers are planning to exude another strong year on the defensive side of the ball during the 2021-2022 NFL season. With addition such as Melvin Ingram and Joe Schobert, the Steelers hope to end the season with the best-ranked defense.
