Bo Nix isn’t Justin Fields. He’s not going to run all over the Pittsburgh Steelers. But as a rookie without much tape, there’s a concern his legs could be a thorn in this defense’s sides.

Pittsburgh dominated Kirk Cousins. There was no one more looking forward for that game to wrap up than him. He took hit after hit, pressure after pressure, and his face braced for impact anytime T.J. Watt even breathed near him. The Steelers’ pass rush is at its best when they can attack a true pocket passer, a dying breed in today’s NFL.
