- Steelers Defensive Failures a Big-Picture Problem? | Steelers Morning Rush
Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the team's 31-28 loss to the Chicago Bears , the team's continued problems on defense, and what that means for not only 2025 but for the future of the organization.
The team's defense, hailed as historic before the start of the 2025 season, is ranked 20th in scoring defense. The entire theory of this team was that a strong defense would keep them competitive until they were able to rebuild the offense in the post-Ben Roethlisberger years.
