Steelers 2019 Defensive Charting: First Four Weeks

As we like to do at every quarter of the season, we like to comb through our Pittsburgh Steelers’ defensive charting to see what trends stick out. Recapping what’s gone down through the first four weeks of the year.

– This is out of 289 snaps, excluding “no plays” and kneeldowns. That puts them on pace for 1156 in 2019, which would be the most in at least the past five years. For whatever that’s worth.

– Your personnel groups for the first month:

Nickel:58.5%
3-4: 33.6%
Dime: 8%

For comparisons sake, they were in base 30% of the time last year.
