Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Detroit Lions 19-9 in their final preseason game to finish the preseason 3-0. Mitch Trubisky led a two-minute drill that finished with a touchdown pass and looked like he won the starting quarterback job. But Kenny Pickett also showed improvement with back shoulder passes that might mean he's more ready to start than we thought. Najee Harris had his first action back, but said he felt rusty and he had a lot of improvement to do. Is he right?The offensive line struggled again, and it might be a sign Omar Khan and Mike Tomlin need to find more help for the group. T.J. Watt and Diontae Johnson suffered injuries that don't appear to be serious, but Damontae Kazee could miss serious time with his injury. Either way, it was not a bad idea for any of them to play in the preseason game, and there's a clear reason why.Finally, the defense looked better when the starters mostly played. That also included the linebackers as Devin Bush and Myles Jack both had good days for the defense. Myles Jack talks on the show about their progress and what he's seen from Bush.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COMFollow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.
