UPDATE from Steelers: Diontae Johnson (concussion) and Derek Watt (hamstring) out for the rest of the game.

Steelers Defense all of the sudden can’t cover.  Were we all fooled by the mirage of a capable secondary last year?
Brian Batko
2:48
It's possible that they overachieved last season, but something else to keep in mind is that they're going from Jeff Driskel to Deshaun Watson. Seems like they're still figuring out best course of action, whether to blitz him or maybe spy him with a DB. Whatever they're doing, it's leaving receivers running free.

Short yardage has been brutal this game
Brian Batko

Anthony McFarland looked confused on that third-and-3 play. So my question would be why is he in there? Ended up splitting out wide, Ben runs right and MAY have reached the sticks.
Destiny

The defense is playing against one of the best QBs in the game.
Brian Batko
2:49
Gritty Ben!

Some interesting scores around the league:
Patriots 13, Raiders 10
Eagles 13, Bengals 10
Browns 17, Washington 7
Vikings 17, Titans (next up) 9
Bills 28, Rams 3(!)

They should win the challenge
Shawn
2:52
It seems to me that the defense is living in their fear, in regards to the pass rush, as opposed to doing what they do best. Watson was sacked 8 times in the first two weeks, and the chiefs are not a dynamic pass rushing team. Not to mention, the first half game plan wasn't working anyways
Brian Batko

Steelers lose a challenge. Take a swig.
Walter Sobchak

Doesn’t make me feel much confidence the coaching staff knows what is going on when a guy goes from inactive in week 1 to feature in second half of game 3
Brian Batko
2:54
I wouldn't say they're featuring McFarland, but he's been involved a lot. Conner in the backfield now here on fourth-and-inches, with Vance McDonald at fullback.
Shawn
2:54
IDK what they saw there. That last look seemed definitive to me
Walter Sobchak
2:54
Terrible call
HudsonValleySteve
2:56
cant even run a screen
Shawn
2:57
With ebron, claypool, and vMac, this is where the Steelers should be most dangerous
Walter Sobchak

Just playing witcha BB -

Third-and-goal from the 15. That's never what you want.
2:58
Boswell's 26-yard field goal is good. Steelers trail 21-20 with 9:54 left in the third.

Second half will be ours
HudsonValleySteve
2:59
now ya gotta ask yaself....  can the D hold...  can they
Brian Batko
2:59
Indeed, we'll see what adjustments the defense made in the locker room. But sometimes the other guy's just better. Watson's been that so far.
Shawn

It feels like this game is going to come down to which qb makes the mistake, or which defense forces it
Rich
3:00
They need to make some changes in the secondary,but who, what
HudsonValleySteve
3:00
didnt look that way his first two games...
Shawn
3:02
Not the secondary, rich, they need to pressure watson, and not give him a 5 second clean pocket.
Brian Batko
3:02
Hey there's Cam Heyward.
3:04
Ray-Ray McCloud! He's running angry out there on the punt return.
HudsonValleySteve
3:04
Dee holds...  Dee holds...  now if off can stay on the field,  we gotta game
Walter Sobchak
3:04
Yes he has the job
Destiny
3:04
We finally have a returner.
Brian Batko
3:04
Well, Diontae was second-team All-Pro PR last year, but...
HudsonValleySteve
3:05

Brian Batko
3:05

Destiny
3:07
I know but McCloud can take it to the house anytime
Walter Sobchak
3:07
This game has not been well officiated
Brian Batko
3:08
I never blame the refs.
Walter Sobchak
3:08
Not blaming - just saying
