The Pittsburgh Steelers passing offense was only able to muster 150 yards on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. This played a significant role in why the Steelers lost to the Cowboys to fall to 3-2.
A big reason for this was the absence of star wide receiver George Pickens. Pickens finished with only three receptions and was part of some sort of snap management plan by head coach Mike Tomlin which we don’t believe for one second.
Pickens also got into a bit of a dust-up after the game with Cowboys cornerback Jourdan Lewis. This prompted Lewis after the game to put Pickens on blast.

Lewis called Pickens “weak” and said the Steelers needed to get a new wide receiver. While we don’t disagree with Lewis thinking the Steelers need a new wideout, we aren’t sure we’d call Pickens weak. However, so the victor goes the spoils and Lewis and the Dallas defense were in full control Sunday night and can say what they want.
