00:00The Steelers did not score an offensive touchdown, but that's five.
00:07Chris Boswell was a perfect six for six, including a 57-yarder to begin year number 10 in the
00:13Steel City.
00:14The Falcons offense is the grave concern.
00:16Kirk Cousins in his first football game in Atlanta after tearing his Achilles a season
00:21ago.
00:22His final in Minnesota, the 36-year-old looked a little bit rusty, 155 yards and a touchdown,
00:28but two interceptions, including Joe and INT, under three minutes remaining in regulation
00:34with the Falcons down by five and in Steelers' territory, a costly pick that iced away the
00:39game.
00:40And I think Kirk Cousins is still seeing visions of TJ Watt hunting him down, a sack, two tackles
00:45for loss, and three quarterback hits against the Dirty Birds yesterday afternoon.
00:50All I heard all offseason was, don't worry, he's 100%, there's no rust, he's going to
00:55come back and just lighten it up and do what Kirk Cousins did over the past few seasons
01:00with Justin Jefferson in Minnesota, and he throws for $1.55.
01:04They scored 10 points, inconsistent, three and outs multiple times, and Pittsburgh grinds
01:10out yet another win over Atlanta.
01:12Those numbers in terms of all-time, they're 16-2-1, I believe.
01:17The Steelers are, after that win, all-time against the Falcons, and Tomlin is 5-0 as
01:22well.
01:23With Arthur Smith dialing up at least a game plan that put Justin Fields into a position
01:28to win that game, he played well within the scheme, got well over 50 yards rushing in
01:33terms of that matchup, didn't have to throw all that much, and they relied on the defense.
01:38That's the recipe to win.
01:40So again, is Atlanta the best team after, I think everybody's in agreement now, that
01:45the best team in the NFC South is Tampa Bay after they dismantled Washington.
01:49No longer is this team a 12- or a 13-1 shot to win the Super Bowl.
01:55Everybody needs to get real with the Falcons.
