Ahkello Witherspoon: ‘If You Aren’t Stopping The Run, It Doesn’t Matter’

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ run defense is absolutely garbage, and they took garbage to yet another new level of Sunday with their heinously embarrassing display against the Minnesota Vikings and running back Dalvin Cook, who was highly questionable to even play in the game due to an injured shoulder.

While they were able to clean up the run defense late in the game, they still allowed the Vikings to go off for 242 yards on the ground, with 205 from Cook.

They have now allowed over 100 yards on the ground in six straight games, and in nine of the last 10.
