Keith Butler Says Steelers Players Need To Work On Tackling After Practice

One week after the Pittsburgh Steelers defense had a solid game of tackling against the Arizona Cardinals they reverted back to missing several of them in their Sunday road loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

During a recent interview on Steelers Nation Radio with Missi Matthews, Steelers defensive coordinator Keith Butler talked about the tackling problems his unit had against the Chiefs and more importantly, what needs to be done in order to improve in that area.

“Well, sometimes things just happen and you miss tackles but we got in a situation where we had one caught in the flat and we missed about three tackles and the wide receiver ran down the sideline for a few yards and they wound up getting a score out of it, Butler said.
