It has been an up-and-down season for the Steelers. Mike Tomlin suffered one of his worst losses as Pittsburgh's head coach in a 30-7 drubbing to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1.
The Steelers seemed rejuvenated in the next two weeks. Their defense took center stage in a 26-22 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 2. That was the same game TJ Watt became the Steelers' all-time sacks leader. He also scored the decisive defensive touchdown in regulation.
Pittsburgh then held on to a 23-18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. At that point, it seemed the Steelers were ready to take over the AFC North division.
For some reason, Mike Tomlin's Steelers never showed their true potential in the horrifying loss to the Texans. Houston quarterback CJ Stroud toyed with the Steelers. He threw for 306 yards and two touchdowns as the Texans won their second straight game.
Just when you thought the Steelers' defense was peaking, they couldn't get a hand on Stroud on Sunday. Pittsburgh failed to record a sack against Stroud. Interestingly enough, he also hasn't thrown a single interception through four games. He's showing everybody why he was the second overall selection of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Tomlin has guided the Steelers to seven division titles and one Super Bowl title since 2006. Despite Pittsburgh's up-and-down season, Tomlin should be able to right the ship soon.
