James Conner: Winning Without Running Game ‘Doesn’t Mean We Don’t Need It’

Today is the first day in preparing for Thursday night’s game against the Cleveland Browns during which the Pittsburgh Steelers will actually be on the field for practice. The team expects James Conner, having missed the past two games with a shoulder injury, to be out there and participate at full capacity.

Considering the anemic performances of the run game over the course of the past two weeks, this could be a vital addition, and one can only hope that the return of Benny Snell is not too far off, as well, because defenses are not even paying much respect to the threat of the Steelers’ run game at the moment.
