Steelers Now
Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s about the team’s little-used Dime defensive package and if that could help with some of the secondary issues revealed in Thursday’s loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Could a six-man defensive backfield, perhaps containing Brandin Echols in addition to the usual starting five, be helpful, and if it wouldn’t have helped against the Bengals, could it be a factor this week against the Green Bay Packers?
Alan breaks it down.
