Pittsburgh are currently ranked third-last in total offense in the NFL following Sunday’s 17-14 defeat to the New England Patriots, during which the Steelers gained just 243 yards.
Quarterback Trubisky, who was named starter in the offseason after spending last year as backup for the Buffalo Bills, finished 21 of 33 passing for 168 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
The former Chicago Bears play-caller is averaging a second-lowest 5.1 yards per attempt while the Steelers as a team have recorded just eight plays of at least 15 yards through the opening two weeks.
“I think there were some missed opportunities, just a couple of better decisions by me and giving our playmakers more of a chance so looking to fix that this week,” said Trubisky.
“I could take more opportunities down the field and that’s where we can get our playmakers the football so I think better decision-making and taking those opportunities for sure.
“It’s there, we had our opportunities, I think earlier I can take shots downfield. I could look for 14 (George Pickens) more often, he’s doing a great job for us and I’ve just got to get these playmakers the football.
