Steelers Run Defense Issues a Red Alert or Fixable Problem? | Aaron Rodgers, Jalen Ramsey Grade High

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com. The Pittsburgh Steelers' run defense showed serious problems in their 34-32 win over the New York Jets. Despite the win, the defensive line looked weak and allowed Justin Fields and Breece Hall to run wild and almost steal the game away. Are the Steelers' issues on defense fixable or should the team be on red alert? Also, Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders go over Chris' first installment of his Stars and Skulls grades of the season. Aaron Rodgers and Jalen Ramsey were among the highest graded players while Broderick Jones, Keeanu Benton and others graded poorly. Where did your favorite player fall in this week's grades?
