Rattle Drew Lock early
As was the case in week one, the Steelers get to face a young quarterback in Drew Lock. The Steelers have made a habit of imposing their will on young quarterbacks over their history.
Pittsburgh has a dominant pass rush that can make any quarterback’s day turn into a nightmare very quickly. It starts with the edge duo of T.J. Watt and Bud Dupree.
The two were all over the field on defense last week and tallied a combined 15 pressures on Daniel Jones. This no doubt aided the defense in getting him to make his two crucial mistakes, including the interception that stopped a 19-play drive
Drew Lock has made just six starts in his young career so he still lacks the experience needed to navigate a pass rush and defense on the Steelers’ level. Rattling him early will help them lead the team to victory this week.
