Former NFL DE Doesn’t Believe Russell Wilson Can Play Style Of Football Mike Tomlin Wants

Entering the 2024 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers want to play a specific style of football under head coach Mike Tomlin: run the football, lean on a star-studded defense, make some plays down the field in the passing game offensively, avoid the turnovers and win lower-scoring games.

For many, that is a bewildering style to try and play, but the Steelers have had some success with it in the past, though that success hasn’t translated to the playoffs.

Things could be different this season now that the Steelers have upgraded the quarterback position with the additions of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields.
