Below are the coverage stats for the Pittsburgh Steelers following their 27-24 overtime loss Sunday to the Dallas Cowboys.
The completion percentage of 71% is down right awful as is the 8.1 yards per attempt.
Josh Victorian was targeted 9 times and allowed 7 completions. I should note that a few were screens, but the yards after the catch, 42 to be exact, is something a Steelers corner should never let happen. It wasn\’t just Victorian either, as yards after the catch for the whole team was bad.
The Steelers will hopefully have both Cortez Allen and Keenan Lewis in the lineup this week against the Cincinnati Bengals. If they don\’t, I hate to think what A.J. Green might do against the likes of Victorian or Curtis Brown.
