There's no way around it, the Pittsburgh Steelers' defense completely dropped the ball in the team's Week 4 loss to the Cleveland Browns.

Four weeks into the 2026 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers have plenty to like and plenty to worry about. At 2-2, they have shown enough on both sides of the ball to suggest they can compete, but their Week 4 loss to the Cleveland Browns exposed some issues that could become difficult to overcome.
