Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers won another close victory, this time 13-6 over the Denver Broncos. But Christopher Carter wonders, is Justin Fields doing enough for this offense? Or are the problems elsewhere on the team? Looking closer at Broderick Jones' penalties and several calls from the referees that brought back big plays, Chris sees things the Steelers can do themselves that can put them in better positions to score points. Also, Chris dives into Jones' response in the locker room when asked about being benched for his penalties. Did Jones do enough to take responsibility or is he blaming others for his holding calls? Finally, is the Steelers' defense really elite? They've shut down tow opponents so far and looked good doing so. But neither of them are elite offenses, and questions still remain about how this defense will play against better offenses.
