Breaking down the two sacks the Pittsburgh Steelers allowed in their Week 14 loss against the New England Patriots.
1. 3rd and 8, 7:28 1st. 11 personnel. Six-block vs four-man rush
Patriots playing Cover 2. QB Mitch Trubisky doesn’t like his first option, might’ve been Pat Freiermuth down the seam who is being carried well vertically, and Trubisky thinks he has an opening up the middle to scramble for the first down.
But the gap closes up as he scrambles up through the pocket, the RDE either on a twist/game or sensing Trubisky start to hitch up, looping inside and taking him down.
