Not Out of the Woods Yet

It’s no secret the Steelers have struggled as of late. Le’Veon Bell is sacrificing a year of his prime to help his agent get more from that commission, they started the season with a tie game against the Browns, and they lost to the Chiefs last week. Antonio Brown is missing practices. It’s been all around bad news before Monday night.

Though Monday was a much needed boost, a win against a good team, there are still some problems. Monday was a lot of ‘Yeah!’ and a lot of ‘Eh.’ Take Brown, he took that screen pass to the endzone, but he only got 50 yards. James Connor was in Eh mode the whole game, until they needed to eat clock and then he turned it on. The team lit up the first half, and then not so much in the second. They aren’t Super Bowl ready yet, but they’re moving in the right direction.
