Interestingly enough. While the Steelers Defense ranks just tied (Vikings) for 17th in points allowed? that will still be the toughest Defense Chicago has faced this year. We can see what a Vikings pedestrian Defense did last week to Chicagos Powerful Offense. It took Chicago every last second to muster 19 points. From Pittsburgh on out the Defenses Chicago faces will become more normalized to good. Still no top tier units, but all average to above average.
Pitt (17th) Philly (8th) GB (7th) Cleveland (18th) GB (7th) SF (13th) Detroit (10th)
