The Pittsburgh Steelers are following a different trend from the top defenses in the NFL this year with more split-safety defensive shells. Christopher Carter explains how that can work for Patrick Graham’s new defense along with the team’s safeties Jaquan Brisker, DeShon Elliott and Darnell Savage. But are the Steelers making a mistake by not trying to set their own trends and being a copycat of what teams like the Seahawks and Rams have done with their defenses?
Also, Chris takes your calls on the Locked on Steelers call-in line. Are the Steelers overlooking how dangerous a weapon Jaylen Warren can be for their offense? Or are they working on the best mix of how to use him in the offense with Rico Dowdle and the receiving threats like DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr.? Chris explains why even though Warren isn’t the most talked about Steelers player, he’s still a vital piece to the offense. And could the Steelers use Riley Nowakowski or Darnell Washington in a unique fullback role?
