Steelers' Scary Trends in Browns Loss Suggest Major Challenges Coming | Joey Porter Jr. Trade Impact

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.The Pittsburgh Steelers lost the Cleveland Browns 27-24 Thursday night. Christopher Carter explains how they lost could be a bad sign moving forward. The Steelers' defense had some key advantages against the Browns' offense that it didn't exploit, especially when it came to pressuring Deshaun Watson with a banged up offensive line. Though T.J. Watt had a strong game, could the Steelers have a big problem with how their pass rush and coverage mix? Chris sees major issues with their coverage and how the lack of Joey Porter Jr. after he was traded away could have a long term impact on a defense that lost Derrick Harmon and Jamel Dean to injury. Also, Mike McCarthy's offense looked lost and without direction until it was too late against the Browns. Aaron Rodgers was sacked five times and the Steelers had no ready counterpunch for the Browns' mix of press coverage and blitzes until the fourth quarter. While Jaylen Warren, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington played well, and they got help from DK Metcalf and Roman Wilson, the Steelers' offense was inconsistent yet again, and the Steelers fell to last place in the AFC North.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COMFollow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'How Can I Lose' by Johnny Quest the Rebel, under his label Renaissance Music.
