The Pittsburgh Steelers’ can’t block on kick returns. You’re…probably not surprised by that. I’m sure someone is racing to the comments section to scream at me, We’ve been telling you Alex, fire Danny Smith.
And hey, we’ve pointed out their kick return problems time and time again. But it felt like things hit an all-time low on this return Thursday. This is, and I say this with little hyperbole, one of the worst “blocked” returns I’ve ever seen. That’s to say, literally no one was blocked on this return, a 16 yard runback by Tony Brooks-James after the Browns’ first touchdown of the night.
