Worst defensive player so far in 2019

Our offense posted only 275 yards, but they had 21 points, 20 first downs, 6/12 3rd downs, with 3 sacks and 0 turnovers.

The offense wasn't great, but they were clutch at the end. The defense was the opposite of clutch at the end. This loss is more on the defense. No doubt about that. As to the defense winning the game last week, they were also terrible for the first 4 weeks. We can't just forget that happened because they were good one week.

Well as long as you have no doubt, we can overlook the multiple dropped catches by the O. and them not scoring anything for 29 minutes of the 30 minute second half. We can attribute it to the D that held them to 20 points (would have been their second lowest output of the season) until they had to sell out to get a sack; instead of a O that had the 2nd lowest (points, yards is probably worse) offensive output against the Steelers all year.

Sometimes you have to consider the opponent. The Steelers have been terrible on D all year while excelling at O.
