Steelers Afternoon Drive: What’s Wrong with the Steelers Running Game?

Welcome to the Steelers Afternoon Drive, our new daily podcast featuring all the latest Steelers news.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith run down the list of injuries the Pittsburgh Steelers have as they get ready for Sunday Night Football against the Las Vegas Raiders. Gunner Olszewski is set to miss the game after suffering a concussion on Monday Night vs the Cleveland Browns. Meanwhile, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Damontae Kazee, Larry Ogunjobi and Darnell Washington are all good to go. The Steelers haven’t been able to do what they want to do most which is run the football. Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren have found very little success behind Mason Cole, James Daniels, Isaac Seumalo, Dan Moore Jr. and Chuks Okorafor. What is the biggest reason for their issues? Is there a reason the team has gone away from using pre-snap motion and we aren’t seeing much play-action? Hop in and let’s go for another ride on the Steelers Afternoon Drive!
