Minkah Fitzpatrick Knows Pittsburgh Must ‘Smash The Run’ In Ravens Rematch

The Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves still in the hunt after winning against the Las Vegas Raiders Christmas Eve, pushing them to 7-8 on the season. For starting the season 3-7, the Steelers have won four of their last five games with their only loss coming to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 14 losing 16-14 in a game where Kenny Pickett was knocked out of the game and Mitch Trubisky replaced him, throwing three INTs to the Ravens defense which effectively lost Pittsburgh the game.

Still, while the offense didn’t capitalize on the defense holding Baltimore to 16 points in the contest, the defensive side of the football isn’t without blame in that game either as they surrendered 215 rushing yards to a Ravens offense that became one-dimensional after backup QB Tyler Huntley got knocked out of the game, prompting them to play rookie UDFA Anthony Brown who completed three passes for a grand total of 16 yards.
