Kansas City Chiefs: Five Things To Watch Vs Pittsburgh Steelers
By Ben Almquist
Can Jeremy Maclin Bounce Back?
Kansas City Chiefs star wide receiver Jeremy Maclin has struggled the past two weeks. Maclin has been one of the least effective receivers in the Chiefs offense when considering production per target. That has to change, and it has to change fast. The Chiefs need Jeremy Maclin to be a reliable weapon for them.
The Pittsburgh Steelers secondary…well, it just isn’t any good. This is a perfect opportunity for Jeremy Maclin to put up a monster game and come out of his rut. There is no defensive back on the Steelers roster who should be able to match up with him.
The Chiefs have a lot of young talent in their wide receiver corps, but nobody who matches what Maclin can do. This game has the potential to be very high scoring, and the Chiefs will need their top outside threat to keep pace. The match up works out in his favor, Jeremy Maclin just has to step up to the plate.
