The Steelers’ creative scheming played a big role in the win over the Eagles

The Steelers offense exploded for 38 points against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, eclipsing the 30 point barrier for the first time since a December, 2018 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. While rookie receiver Chase Claypool was the undisputed star of the afternoon, scoring four touchdowns and looking like Calvin Johnson 2.0, offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner and assistant coach Matt Canada played important roles as well. The Steelers unveiled several creative play designs that both confused and exploited the Philadelphia defense, most impressively on their opening drive of the second half that resulted in Claypool’s third touchdown.
