Russell WilsonBreaking down the two sacks the Pittsburgh Steelers allowed in their 44-38 Week 13 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

2:19 3RD, 1ST AND 10, 12 PERSONNEL, SEVEN BLOCK VS FOUR-MAN RUSH

It looks like a designed screen here to RB Najee Harris, but the Bengals’ defense snuffs it out, so Russell Wilson holds on and ends up sliding behind the line of scrimmage after he takes off to run up the middle. It was just a good play here by the Bengals’ defense to recognize the screen, and Wilson smartly doesn’t force it and takes the loss on first down.

Blame: Defensive coverage
