"Steelers' Evolving Identity: Offense, Defense, and Special Guests"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by TribLIVE
The Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive approach for the 2023 NFL season is to dominate on first down and set up potential explosiveness from the offense based on advantageous down-and-distance situations. The team's goal is to win big on first down and hit big when the opposing defense has to guess on second-and-2. The Steelers' approach is not to spread the field and air it out, but to beat up opposing defenses on first-and-10. The team's players have emphasized the importance of first down and the need to be more efficient on first downs to set up big plays on second and third downs.
