The Steelers’ defense got gashed on the ground in their Week 14 home matchup vs Baltimore. Facing a rematch with their season on the line in a Week 17, Sunday Night road contest, the Steelers coaching staff was forced to get creative to find solutions against one of the league’s most potent rushing attacks. While Kenny Pickett’s masterful game-winning drive will draw most of the attention, and deservedly so, Mike Tomlin, Teryl Austin, Brian Flores, and the rest of the Steelers’ defensive coaching staff deserve massive credit for their creative game plan this past weekend.
In total, Pittsburgh limited Baltimore to just 240 total yards, netting 13 points and 15 total first downs.
