Steelers face a banged-up defense and a run-game question as they head to New England. Four concerns loom: injuries cripple Pittsburgh’s frontline, Warren could inherit a feature role, Rodgers’ presence casts a long shadow, and coaching decisions may decide the game plan. The piece leans into a Warren-led workload as a potential catalyst for fantasy upside, while noting New England’s momentum after a win and the risk of tactical overcoaching.

Miami’s Week 2 defeat to New England exposed a passing-well that’s starting to look threatening, with Hill and Waddle delivering downfield shots and Achane contributing in space. The defense meanwhile remains porous, surrendering chunk plays and third-down extensions, and the late-game penalties and miscommunications on offense exacerbated the loss. For fantasy managers, the offense offers upside with Tua and the top receivers, but the defense and clock-management issues keep risk high until improvements show on the field.

Week 2 film review shows Miami taking a step forward offensively vs. New England, with Tua Tagovailoa delivering cleaner reads and a few downfield connections to Hill and Waddle. The passing game still runs through checkdowns and zone reads, limiting upside. OL issues persist, and blitzes continue to backfire at times, leaving Miami with faults to fix before a short-week bout with Buffalo. Overall, progress is real but not revolutionary.

Miami drops to 0-2 as boos rain down in the home opener and McDaniel faces increased scrutiny, but the locker room backs him. Players emphasize belief, trust, and accountability as the path forward, pointing to time on task and unity over finger-pointing. Offense issues—clock management, substitutions, and a late interception—highlight needed improvements. With a quick turnaround against the 2-0 Bills on Thursday, execution and urgency must rise across staff and players to salvage the season.

Two weeks in, the NFL faces a QB questions sprint: the Browns sit under the microscope as they evaluate Flacco, Gabriel and Sanders, while 11 other teams—Saints, Jets, Dolphins, Giants, Panthers, Bears, Vikings, Jaguars, Seahawks, Steelers, Bengals, Broncos, and Colts—are all weighing future pivots or draft plans. The piece lays out early-season QB vibes across clubs, highlighting standout performers, lingering injuries, and the looming 2026 draft haul that could reshape rosters across the league.
