Mike's Beer Bar War Room: Folks, the Steelers now have a running game

Folks, the Steelers now have a running game.

Do you have your doubts? How about this for evidence: Over their past four games, the Steelers are averaging 158.8 yards per game on the ground. Those came against the Colts, Bengals, Saints, and Eagles. Entering the Monday night game, Indianapolis was allowing just 3.7 yards per game. The Steelers gouged the Colts to the tune of 4.8 yards per attempt.

In terms of yards per carry allowed, the Colts now rank fifth, the Bengals are 11th, the Saints 18th, and the Eagles 23rd. In terms of total rushing yards allowed per game, Cincinnati currently ranks 13th, Indianapolis is 17th, Philadelphia 18th, and New Orleans 23rd.
