6. Smith-Schuster finally records 100+ receiving yards

First off, one can’t help but feel bad for JuJu Smith-Schuster after watching the Pittsburgh Steelers wideout fumble in overtime against the Baltimore Ravens since Justin Tucker went on to kick the game-winning field goal a few plays later.

While this AFC North rivalry is considered one of the best in the NFL, this game was even more frustrating for the Steelers to lose since they only have one win to their name entering Week 6.

From adjusting to playing on offense without Antonio Brown to Ben Roethlisberger suffering a season-ending injury early on, 2019 has quickly become a year to forget for Pittsburgh.

But when seeing how the rest of the AFC North is shaping out, the Steelers shouldn’t rule themselves out just yet, because there’s still plenty of time to turn things around before it’s too late.

Of course, if this is going to happen for Pittsburgh, Smith-Schuster will need to figure out a way to elevate his game to a new level.

As great as it was to watch the Steelers wideout catch his second touchdown pass of the year last weekend, Pittsburgh could benefit from him finally crossing the 100-yard mark for the first time against the Los Angeles Chargers.
