‘Confident In Ourselves’: Steelers D-Line Believes It’s NFL’s Best, Must Stop The Run Better, Benton Says

The last time the Pittsburgh Steelers were in action, they were gashed by a historically bad Cincinnati Bengals rushing attack to the tune of 142 yards on 23 carries, leading to plenty of frustration after a 33-31 loss.

Stopping the run won’t get any easier in Week 8 on Sunday Night Football against the Green Bay Packers star running back Josh Jacobs in an offense that is churning out 117.5 rushing yards per game.

The Steelers have made it a point of emphasis all week and know that if they want to have a shot to rush Green Bay QB Jordan Love at any point in the game, they’ll need to make the Packers’ offense one-dimensional.
