There will be no offensive woes this week for the Pittsburgh Steelers, it seems.
Taking the opening kickoff, the Steelers marched right down the field and punched in the game’s opening touchdown in the preseason finale against the Detroit Lions as veteran running back Cordarrelle Patterson scored on a 31-yard touchdown run off of left tackle, giving the Steelers’ starting offense its first touchdown of the preseason.
It was perfectly executed from a blocking standpoint, too, as rookie center Zach Frazier and veteran left guard Isaac Seumalo were terrific on a combo block, allowing Seumalo to then peel off and work to the second level, sealing the linebacker and giving Patterson a clear lane through the heart of the Detroit defense.
