Ya pasó la semana de descanso, todos frescos de regreso y listos para reanudar las acciones de la temporada regular de la NFL. En esta ocasión toca enfrentarnos a los Rams en Los Ángeles, un partido que pinta para ser uno de los mejores de la semana siete.
Los Steelers históricamente ganan después de su semana de bye, de hecho han ganado todos sus partidos tras su descanso desde el 2017 y si nos queremos ir un poquito más atrás están 12-4 después del bye desde que Mike Tomlin es nuestro head coach.
"Fue una oportunidad para hacer un autoanálisis en las tres facetas, lo que hacemos bien, lo que no hacemos bien, cosas estratégicas y cómo dividimos el trabajo, hicimos un buen trabajo todo el staff y pasamos tiempo atendiendo todos estos puntos" comentó Coach Tomlin en conferencia de prensa esta semana.
Una de las grandes noticias de la semana es que Diontae Johnson regresó a las prácticas este lunes y pronto se decidirá si está apto para regresar al partido del próximo domingo.
Mike Tomlin tiene marca perfecta contra los Rams (4-0), la última vez que los Rams nos ganaron fue en la semana 8 de 2003, todavía con Bill Cowher.
Este domingo tendremos la oportunidad de ver a T.J. Watt y a Aaron Donald, dos de los mejores defensivos de los últimos años. Sin duda ambas ofensivas tendrán que armar un plan muy especial para frenar a estas dos fuerzas, Watt y Donald están dentro de los 10 defensivos con más capturas entre los jugadores en activo, Donald 105.5 en 10 temporadas y Watt 85.5 en 7 años como profesional.
Hablando del lado defensivo del balón, los Steelers tendrán un buen reto para frenar a Puka Nacua y Cooper Kupp el próximo domingo. Nacua lidera a los Rams con 50 recepciones 598 yardas y 2 touchdowns.
Del lado ofensivo, la clave será establecer el juego terrestre a lo largo del juego y repartir el balón entre las diferentes armas aéreas. Otro tema clave será culminar nuestras series en zona roja con seis puntos en lugar de tres puntos.
