Keith Butler Credits Mike Munchak For Helping Give Broncos Run Game An Early Edge

It would be an understatement to say that the Pittsburgh Steelers bottled up New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley in week one. He finished the game with just six rushing yards on 15 carries, and more than half of his rushing attempts went for lost yardage.

It was a remarkable collective performance by a very stout front including standout showings from the likes of Bud Dupree, Vince Williams, and Tyson Alualu, and one that wasn’t likely to be repeated. But for defensive coordinator Keith Butler, the Denver Broncos had a little something more to help them have a bit more success: former Steelers offensive line coach Mike Munchak.
