UPDATE: 4:41 p.m.
This game, the Steelers cannot continue to run the ball on early downs. Don’t run on the second or eighth either.Running into a wall like they are is teeing up third and longs all day, but I get that the pass game without Pickens will be less than ideal.That won’t get them the victory.
