NFL--Browns vs Steelers, Can Mitchell Trubisky keep Kenny Pickett at bay for one more week?

The Buffalo Bills' performance during Mitchell Trubisky's sabbatical season wasn't as successful as the Pittsburgh Steelers had hoped.

After sitting behind Josh Allen last season, a bad start destroyed Trubisky's chances of becoming a star.

Trubisky has rushed for only 16 yards and is ranked 29th in throwing. The Steelers offence felt average despite having some respectable weapons.

If Trubisky fails to deliver exciting plays in Week 3, Pickett might make his debut.

Pickett had a strong preseason, but it doesn't ensure success once the big games begin.
