Former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau always said that two of the three main things he always preached to his defense was not to get beat deep and always tackle the catch. Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, Steelers cornerback Antwon Blake and safety Mike Mitchell failed to deliver on both of those key principles during one second quarter play and it resulted in a touchdown.
With 6:33 left in the first half, the Bengals ran all three wide receivers vertically up the field against the Steelers cover-3 defense.
