Steelers Vs Browns Sack Breakdown
The final one of the regular season. And there was a lot more to wade through here than basically any other game this year. Let’s look at the four sacks.
1. 3rd and 10, 12:43 1st. 11 personnel. Six block vs six rush. NT/LB game with the NT crashing and the LB looping in behind.
B.J. Finney looks to pick up the looping linebacker and I guess he’s trying to pass off the nose. But David DeCastro and Marcus Gilbert are picking up their part of the triangle. That leaves Fitzgerald Toussaint on the DL up the A gap. Not a good place to be.
And then Finney doesn’t even pick up the linebacker, again, I guess thinking he can pass him off. So the DL is creating penetration and the LB is free.
