One week after setting a team-record (at least in the seven years I’ve been tracking missed tackles) of just two missed tackles against the New Orleans Saints, the Pittsburgh Steelers again had a rather strong day in the tackling department against the Cincinnati Bengals.
On the day, the Steelers missed just five tackles overall.
However, a pair of missed tackles ended up being critical in a 37-30 loss to the AFC North rival Bengals at Acrisure Stadium.
Though the Steelers have been rather solid overall in the tackling department on the year, key misses continue to hurt the Steelers in big spots.
