It's hard to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers' defense the last two weeks and think of any word to describe them other than disappointing. It was one thing to lose on a short week, against a Cincinnati Bengals team that has Ja'Marr Chase and Steelers' grim reaper Joe Flacco. But then came Sunday night and the Pittsburgh Steelers' defense looked even worse. They let Jordan Love carve up the secondary like a Christmas ham. It was pitch and catch all night. At one point in the game, Love had 20, that's right 20 straight completions. And there is an old saying football, "either you're coaching it or allowing it to happen." And Mike Tomlin knows that the coaching in Pittsburgh isn't good enough right now. Mike Tomlin calls out scheme, execution for defensive issue as of late "Certainly, you start with the schematics, said Tomlin after the game. "Man, because that's the leadership component of it. And certainly we'll be looking at everything that we're doing. Man, because some of these problems are somewhat repetitive, and we're not getting better fast enough. As I mentioned, they made some significant plays on possession down ball, and, you know, you got to get off on third down, and we didn't do it well enough. And particularly in the third quarter, it was some significant ones."
