I think this has more to do with the team lacking a true leader. They certainly don't have one on offense, and not sure who you could point to on defense.
Certain fans like to rip the team for it, but there is a good reason why the Steelers like a strong mix of vet and young players. Someone has to mentor the young ones as their leadership develops.
