Three Keys For a Steelers Victory: Week 1 @ Bills

By James Layton

Week one is finally here. The Steelers a tough game this week against the Bills to open up the season. The past two times they played we have come out on the losing side.

Here are my three keys for a Steelers Victory.

  1. Get on the score board early and often. To compete with this offense of the Bills we need to come out swinging on offense. This Bills team is capable of putting up 20 plus points a game, with the ability of Josh Allen and the team they built around him.

2. Contain Stefon Diggs as much as possible. We need to keep him locked up in the secondary to limit the splash plays he can make. Joe Haden and Cam Sutton are going to have their work cut out this week with this passing attack.

3. Don’t be stupid!

Keith Butler needs to not have a Linebacker in coverage on any Wide Receiver. There is no reason to have Devin Bush or Joe Schobert in coverage against Cole Beasley or Emmanuel Sanders.

Matt Canaday needs to have a great game plan going into this game. We can’t go out with three straight rushing plays or a tight end or fullback screen to open up a drive. We need to have a balanced offense. Pat Freiermuth needs to be in on every red zone play.
