The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Miami Dolphins in a convincing fashion Sunday at Heinz Field and it included their defense holding the opposing offense to just 52 rushing yards, which is a far cry from the 222 yards they allowed on the ground back in the Week 6 meeting the two teams. That aside, the Steelers defense still allowed Dolphins quarterback Matt Moore to complete all seven of his 36 passing attempts for 289 yards and a touchdown.
On the surface, Moore’s passing completion percentage and yards per attempt was solid but when you dig deeper into the actual numbers, you’ll see that the Steelers defense was on point when it came to their tackle-the-catch philosophy.
