One of the most significant patterns that we can trace during the Pittsburgh Steelers’ active four-game winning streak is the fact that the offense liberally adopted an RPO (run-pass option) set during that time, which has been instrumental in driving their marginal improvement in success.
It also plays a large role in the fact that they have actually recorded 30 or more rush attempts in four straight games, which is just the second time in head coach Mike Tomlin’s 15 seasons with the team in which that has happened, according to Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
