PITTSBURGH (AP) The man in charge of managing the combustible mix of talent and egos on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense likes to choose his words carefully. Still Authentic Cordy Glenn Jersey , Todd Haley couldn’t help but take a not-so- thinly veiled shot at the outside noise that surrounded his
The Steelers have been able to survive anyway thanks to the typical brilliance from Antonio Brown, who leads the league in receptions and yards receiving; running back Le’Veon Bell; and the precocious play of Smith-Schuster. The 20-year-old already has four touchdown receptions Jeremy Kerley Jersey Elite , the most by an NFL player before his 21st birthday.

”He really does not like to make mistakes,” wide receivers coach Richard Mann said. ”It kills him. Therefore, he really works hard at not making mistakes, and I think that’s what we see on the field.”
That’s an attitude shared by a defense that has grown up quickly. Pittsburgh is tied for second in points allowed and is third in sacks. Rookie linebacker T.J. Watt and Bud Dupree have helped restore the menace to the pass rush. Joe Haden’s arrival gave the secondary a proven cornerback to lead a young group that includes budding second-year stars Artie Burns and Sean Davis.
