With all of the talk leading up to Sunday’s Wild Card round game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Miami Dolphins at Heinz Field centered around the Week 6 matchup between the two teams, in which the Dolphins came out on top 30-15, the concern about the Steelers run defense and ability to tackle seemed to fire up the defensive unit.
Against Miami, Pittsburgh put on one of its best displays of tackling this season, rarely missing tackles that led to big plays while also bringing a significant physical element to the game that had been missing for bits and parts of the season.
