Time to Establish the Run Game

from Steelers Central Hosted by Ricky Turner

On this episode of Steelers Central, it's time to preview the team's home opener against the Seattle Seahawks. We'll get into why the Steelers' first priority needs to be shutting down Jaxson Smith-Njigba, as well as attacking the secondary against a defense with some key injuries on the backend. Next, we'll get into some of the key matchups that include the Seahawks' interior defensive line and vice versa, as well as both of the top WRs against the team's top corners. We'll get into why those matchups are so crucial later in the episode. I'll tell you why the Steelers should win this game and provide some predictions for what happens during the game, including why it will be easier to get Sam Darnold to the ground. Lastly, the addition of Jabrill Peppers at safety instantly makes him the second-best at his position. Why this addition couldn't come at a better time for the Steelers, and how I think he'll be used. 0:00-22:08 Steelers vs Seahawks Preview 22:09-35:21 Steelers vs Seahawks Key Matchups 35:22-41:40 Game Prediction 41:41-47:47 Jabrill Peppers: A Perfect Fit
