The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing one of the best offensive lines in the league in the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday. In the estimation of one former Steelers lineman, one much, much better than Pittsburgh’s, I might add. And accordingly, even the Steelers expect the Eagles to handle their elite pass rushers in ways other teams might not dare.
With the likes of Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata, the Eagles are not afraid to leave their tackles alone. They will allow them to work one-on-one against the game’s elite rushers, and the Steelers expect the same treatment.
