Cameron Heyward Details How Steelers Can Combat Dink-And-Dunk Offenses Moving Forward

Coming out of the Week 11 loss to the Cleveland Browns on the road, there were some frustrations defensively for the Pittsburgh Steelers, as the Browns dinked and dunked down the field with rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, winning a low-scoring 13-10 matchup.

Star outside linebacker T.J. Watt was rather frustrated with the dinking and dunking the Browns did, and that the Steelers seemingly couldn’t stop them. After the game he expressed that frustration, stating teams have been doing it all season and that it’s an issue right now for the Steelers.

That will again be the expected plan of attack against Pittsburgh’s defense on Sunday in Week 12 as the Cincinnati Bengals will be rolling out quarterback Jake Browning for his first career start in place of Joe Burrow, who was lost for the season with a wrist injury last week.
