Keith Butler Says Defense Needs To Count By Threes, Not Sevens

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense did the defense no favors with two turnovers but Keith Butler would like to see his group respond to the challenge. A difficult task, there’s no debate about it, but when you’re a unit with eyes on a Lombardi, that’s the standard.

“We were in field position that wasn’t great a couple times,” Butler told Missi Matthews in this week’s Coordinator’s Corner. “They had two interceptions, they scored a touchdown on one, the other one they got three points on. When they get turnovers like that, we gotta make sure they go up by threes, not go up by sevens.
