The Pittsburgh Steelers certainly kept things conservative offensively in Sunday’s loss to the Buffalo Bills. And judging by their measly 166 total yards of offense, that wasn’t the right move. Part of their passiveness has included a lack of action over the middle of the field, something Aaron Rodgers discussed after the game.
“No, there’s no avoiding it. There’s plays called every single week. There’s just not separation, not the coverages dictating the ball going down the middle of the field. Now that play, it did. They played two high, Darnell [Washington] did a nice release, we wrapped around the seam running behind him, and made it a positive play,” Rodgers said via the Steelers’ YouTube channel.
