Week 2 of the NFL regular season is in the books, and it ended with a New England Patriots victory.
Coming off a disappointing opening day loss, the Patriots bounced back by beating the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road with a final score of 17-14. While the team did not play its best football and again had some issues stringing positive plays together on the offensive side of the ball, it did get contributions from all three phases in the game.
As a result, the Patriots avoided their first 0-2 start since the 2001 season and will head into their Week 3 matchup with the Baltimore Ravens at 1-1. Before turning our attention to that game, however, let’s break down the win in Pittsburgh.
