As expected, the first preseason game was a sloppy one for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and that sloppiness showed up the most often in — you guessed it — the tackling department.
Before seeing the number listed below for missed tackles, it’s important to note this was the first live game in pads after a long off-season, hitting sessions at training camp be damned.
Once again, the missed tackles report is back here at Steelers Depot. Proceed with caution, but remember that it’s just one week of preseason action.
