The Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t have their strongest offensive performance Sunday without WR George Pickens available, but some of that may have had to do with the lack of time they had to prepare for life without him on the field. Mike Tomlin acknowledged that this week should look a little different in that regard.
“The strategy component? Certainly. Certainly, if he’s limited, and he’ll probably certainly will be limited at the early portions of the week, it’ll give guys an opportunity to get extended in-helmet perspective on their prep if they are to get expanded roles again this week,” Tomlin said during his Tuesday press conference via the Steelers’ YouTube channel.
