Steelers Refuse To Underestimate Lamar Jackson Despite Injuries, Slump: ‘Doing That At Your Own Risk’.

Tomlin Expects ‘Aggressive’ Fourth-Down Decisions From Both Teams In Ravens Matchup. If there’s a theme to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ season on offense, it’s caution. From a passing plan overloaded with behind-the-line throws to several “cowardly” fourth-down choices by the Surrender Index, almost every major decision has leaned conservative.
