At the beginning of camp was massive Pro Football betting optimism regarding the Steelers. First-round draft pick Najee Harris was seen as the missing piece for Super Bowl glory. What was not considered, was that Harris would play behind a helpless offensive line that can’t bust a grape. Pittsburgh’s season is on the brink after stumbling out of the gate. Of great concern is their prospects of generating a consistent offense. Seattle was also late to the party in 2021. Following two straight losses.
