'That's the head-scratcher:' Despite expecting run, Steelers can't stop ground game

The whole situation screamed run. The Ravens did exactly that.

Down to their third-string quarterback and nursing a two-point lead, the Ravens took the ball out of Anthony Brown's hands and went to running back Gus Edwards on three straight totes.

"I think everybody knew that," Mike Tomlin said on expecting the run given the situation.

And yet, Edwards came through on third down. The Steelers bit on the man in motion, Devin Duvernay, who was in position to run a sweep, and Edwards went right up the middle for the first down.
