Game Preview
This Thursday, the New England Patriots and its lackluster offense travel to Steel City to play the Pittsburgh Steelers under the leadership of Mitch Trubisky. The Patriots’ defense has proven outstanding since the bye and is worth taking a look against a Pittsburgh offense that returned to ground on Sunday and is going to be without Kenny Pickett, even though all attention will be focused on the New England offense. With their poorest outing of the campaign and an inability to score in a 6-0 defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers, New England’s offense may have hit an all-time low on Sunday.
Despite having a 7-5 overall record, the Steelers were humiliated by the Arizona Cardinals in their most recent game. Only 10 points were scored by the offense, and Kenny Pickett will be sidelined for at least a few weeks due to an ankle injury. After replacing the previous quarterback, Mitchell Trubisky completed 11 out of 17 passes for 117 yards, a touchdown, and no interceptions. The Steelers are scoring 16 points a game on average this season, while their defensive line is allowing 19.1 points a contest. Trubsiky will require assistance to have a big game in this particular match.
The Patriots will likely start Bailey Zappe in this game, thus he will need to improve on his performance from the previous one. Out of 25 passes, he completed 13 for 141 yards, no touchdowns, and no picks. They are going to drop the match 6-0, just as they did over the Los Angeles Chargers, unless he can show more dynamism. Rhamondre Stevenson is expected to be sidelined for this game due to an injury he sustained in that match. While their defense allows 21.7 points per match, the Patriots are scoring 12.3 points on average overall. The Patriots’ ability to ignite the offense will determine how they win this game.
