Steelers Burning Question: The Eagles are a bigger test for the offense or defense?
Last season I did the Friday Night Steelers Six Pack and wondered if it was worth doing further. After all, interaction was not great, and sometimes you just have to adjust. So I decided to call an audible, and not just abandon the Friday night meeting of the black-and-gold minds.
Instead of six questions, I wanted to focus solely on one question.
We’ll still do the preamble of what you’re eating/drinking/listening to, but we’ll focus our attention on the one Steelers question of the week. Don’t worry, most weeks I’ll do a bonus/extra credit question for fun. With all that out of the way, let’s get to the question!
This Week 15 game against the Philadelphia Eagles is a difficult one, and almost everyone out there is saying this is a great “test” for the Steelers. I don’t disagree, but my question is which side of the ball is this a bigger test for? The Steelers offense vs. the Eagles defense? Or the Steelers defense vs. the Eagles offense?
Before you say both, know that isn’t an option! No waffling on this question!
If I’m answering this question, I think this is a bigger test for the Steelers defense. I believe the Steelers offense, likely without George Pickens, will be handicapped without their lone dynamic playmaker. However, the Steelers defense going against the prolific Saquon Barkley, Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown will be a tremendous test in every sense of the word.
What say you?
As for what I’m eating, we are eating some local Tex-Mex from a takeout place we all love. As for drink, it’s store bought kombucha, as usual, and the tunes will be Christmas music, tis the season!
Happy Friday everyone!!
