For the Pittsburgh Steelers, seven shots is a training camp staple. A drill that pits the offense against the defense seven times from the 2-yard line, it makes sure both the offense and defense are prepared for goal-line situations. Today, the defense took advantage of the seven shots experience in the two-minute drill part of practice, as they stopped QB Kenny Pickett and the first-team offense four times in a row from inside the 5-yard line.
After practice head coach Mike Tomlin was asked if he was proud of the defense making a stand, and Tomlin explained that that is what seven shots is all about.
