The Pittsburgh Steelers’ running game has looked better since the bye week, coming off of three successful games in a row now. They rushed for over 170 yards on the ground in last night’s win over the Indianapolis Colts—and they did it with just 35 yards combined from Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren, the latter inactive due to injury.
Veteran back Benny Snell Jr. shouldered the lion’s share of the load, recording 12 carries for 62 yards, but Anthony McFarland Jr. also played a valuable role. He rushed for 30 yards on just six carries, including a 14-yarder, and also added a 12-yard reception (plus another that didn’t go so well—losing a yard).
