    So with 16 games in the can, - the Steelers have rushed for 1,929 yards. I just did some research and guess what- this is the highest 16 game total since 2007- Tomlin's first season- when they rushed for 2,168 yards.

    Probably has something to do with starting a rookie QB, they're relying on the running game much more.

    A lot of teams run play action passes when they are having success running..

    Pretty nice considering that Najee just had his first 100 yard game. came close with 99 against the Saints.

    He's only gone 90+ 3 times this season 80+ 5 times

    Warren cranked out 76 on the Ravens!

    also they don't rely on just one runner like in the past.Kenny,Warren and Harris have all contribute and also the steelers have so many jet sweep in their offense

    A lot of teams build on the previous playcall...
    We just seem to throw random plays at the wall and see what sticks
