‘We Just Gotta Be Prepared To Be Patient’: Tomlin Says Packers’ Defense Does A Great Job ‘Keeping A Lid On It’

When the Pittsburgh Steelers play the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, they will face a defense that appears to be heading into the contest at less than full strength.

On the final injury report before game time, the Packers listed LB Quay Walker and CB Jaire Alexander as doubtful to play in the game, meaning that the Packers will have to try and stop Pittsburgh’s offense without two of their top defenders in the lineup. Still, head coach Mike Tomlin sees the Packers still putting up a tough test defensively tomorrow when the ball is kicked off in Acrisure Stadium, telling Bob Pompeani on The Mike Tomlin Show that he expects his former coworker to have that unit ready to play despite missing some of their best players.
