Steelers Target Falcons' EDGE Weakness | Atlanta Falcons News

Steelers open 2026 with a prime chance to dominate the Falcons’ shaky defense—especially with Atlanta’s top edge rushers sidelined. With ZaDarius Smith and Samson Ebukam stepping in, expect Pittsburgh to feast on the outside with Jaylen Warren’s speed and Rico Dowdle’s power. The offensive line and tight ends must open lanes, but veteran playmakers like Freiermuth and Washington can help. If the Steelers exploit this weakness early, it could be a statement win for new head coach Mike McCarthy. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
