Fresh off their bye week and riding high following a thrilling 24-21 win in Dublin, Ireland, over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4, things are looking up for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Especially within the run game.
In the win over the Vikings, the Steelers leaned heavily on their jumbo package featuring tight end Darnell Washington and swing offensive lineman Spencer Anderson. The Steelers lined up in the jumbo package 19 times. In fact, seven of the 12 biggest gains the Steelers had on the day came with the jumbo package on the field.
Pittsburgh had a huge day, rushing for 131 yards and controlling the line of scrimmage.
