Welcome to the Locked-on Steelers podcast.

I am your host, Tony Serino, and this is your daily dose of all things, Steelers.

Today on the show, an injury report for tomorrow's Steelers' Falcons game, a big one for

the Steelers again, as we talked about on Wednesday's show with Aaron Freeman over at

Locked-on Falcons.

reviewing the actual film of the Steelers Ravens game, you know, look, it was a bad game.

I think today I want to review what's been happening with the Steelers' offense early in these games.

Of course, we talked so much this year about the defense and how poor the defense has been.

But, you know, right behind them is the offense and how weird the offense has been this year,

in that it has started games as slowly as you can possibly start them and then finish them slowly as

well. We'll get to the finishing slowly on another podcast. But today I really want to focus on

what's been happening early in football games with this offense. Why can't this offense get going

in the first quarter? Why does it seem like it takes a whole quarter for this team to get going? And
