Sack Breakdown: Steelers Vs Bengals

Going over the *sigh* four sacks allowed by the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3. We’ll assign blame for each and update our sack and penalty trackers throughout the year.

1. 1st and 10, 2:54 1st. 13 personnel. 6 block + TE check/release vs five man rush

Steelers went max protect a lot in this game in an effort to give Ben Roethlisberger time for shots downfield. Two man routes with everyone else in to block (or leak out after initially blocking).

But no one got open on these concepts. As you can see, Eric Ebron nor Chase Claypool initially create space, though these routes take time to develop (especially Claypool’s).
