How Steelers Personnel Groupings Forced Falcons To Burn A Timeout

On Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, the Pittsburgh Steelers forced them to burn a timeout with a surprising personnel grouping on offense.

Pat Freiermuth talked about this during Chalk Talk with Gerry Dulac on 102.5 WDVE this evening.

“That’s what’s great about Art [Smith]. We have 13 personnel, 12 personnel, 11 personnel, we even have 14 personnel,” Freiermuth said of the many personnel groupings the Steelers use on offense.

The first digit in that number system indicates how many running backs are on the field. The second indicates the number of tight ends.
