from Steelers Breakdown from PennLive.com · host PennLive

Nick critiques the defensive schematics as "malpractice" and outdated, pointing to predictable play-calling and a failure to maximize player talent. The offense is also scrutinized for its inability to establish a downfield passing game, despite a strong rushing performance. They touch on the underperformance of high-paid players, with Nick arguing that coaching, rather than a lack of talent, is the primary issue, leading to a "maddening, frustrating" team to watch.
