Run Chase Brown to the left a lot and continue to hit our TE's over the middle. That will pull their depleted safety group up, allowing us to hit an occasional big one. The main thing we'll need to do is find Freiermuth a damned babysitter.

Yep, need to slow down that TE this game. I think Dax Hill and our Linebackers, namely Logan need to play much better in this one.

I think Logan is a bit banged up with his ankle, but he is still tackling like a machine lately. Pratt is playing much better.

Tee could have his monster game in this one with the backup Safeties, same with Boyd and Iosivas if Ja'Marr cannot go or is really sore.

I think Hudson might not have as good of a game against this D that likes to play so much Man. Hudson is good against the Zone.

Mix in a counter trey back to the right, and the RB or TE screens just blooping it over TJ Watts' head.  Last year, we screened TJ a few times with Perine and had some big plays, one went for a TD.  This also slowed down his rush.

Vikings did hurt use with TE, and we shut drop Pitt WRs , gave up zero passing tds.

Why do the Steelers always voluntarily shake things up on offense the week the bengals play them? Last time they played, they fired their OC and Pitt had heir most prolific offensive day this season. WHy do I have a weird feeling rudolph playing will produce similar results?
