Breaking down the two sacks the Pittsburgh Steelers allowed in Week 12’s win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
1. 1st and 10, 8:40 1st. 12 personnel. Six block vs four man rush
Play action here with the tight ends going out. The ball is supposed to come out quickly in the flat. It’s why RB Najee Harris is cutting the RDE, but the Bengals match Connor Heyward and Pickett’s forced to go elsewhere. Over the middle, it’s a messy mesh between WR George Pickens and TE Pat Freiermuth that doesn’t develop as it should. Pickett is pressured as the DE stays on his feet on Harris’ cut block.
