1. That Start
After the Steelers went 3-and-out to start the game, they allowed the Chiefs to march right down the field and score to quickly make it 7-0 before some fans were even in their seats.
Then after another quick 3-and-out it was a 5-play, 71-yard drive with Travis Kelce pulling in a 19-yard touchdown pass to make it 14-0. Oh and how about another touchdown on the NEXT Chiefs drive, making it 21-0.
By then the Steelers offense had done little to nothing, but the defense had done even less, as Mahomes had already thrown three touchdowns, and the Chiefs had done whatever they wanted on offense.
What happened next no one probably saw coming, but finally the offense came to life, but to expect a team to come back from down 21 to win a game is asking a lot, and it wasn’t meant to be for the Steelers.

Pat Mahomes , a first year starter looked like a surgeon cutting slashing and slicing a veteran Steeler defense . In a word , embarrassing , to say the least . The Steelers players and coaching staff had no idea whatsoever on how to even slow down this kid , much less stop him . Hands down the worst defensive performance in many years . Keith Butler needs to go , period . The same breakdowns week after week and they are never fixed . It time for the excuses to stop . Mike Tomlin is just as guilty . This undisiplined mess of a football team falls squarely in his lap . Hes the head coach and the job is not getting done . The excuses need to stop , once and for all .
