Danny Smith’s special teams unit was the unsung hero in the Steelers' victory over the Jets on Sunday night. As the offense, led by newly appointed quarterback Russell Wilson, struggled to find its footing, Smith's group stepped up with pivotal plays that swung the momentum in Pittsburgh’s favor. Despite early setbacks, including a negated block, the special teams delivered when it counted, blocking a Jets field goal in the third quarter that helped maintain the lead. This performance was crucial, allowing the Steelers to secure their fifth win of the season while showcasing the importance of all game phases. Wilson's debut may overshadow the win, but it’s clear that special teams played a transformative role.
