Super Bowl LIII features the NFL’s hottest team and their most legendary, and the Pittsburgh Steelers can take things away from both.
The New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams are very different teams, but they bring many of the same light for all 30 other organizations to learn from. There are reasons these two made it to the biggest stage in sports, and every coach, general manager and player are looking for those reasons.
For the Steelers, they have the potential to reach the final week of the NFL season, but they need to execute. Watching the teams in Super Bowl LIII, you see the aspects of the game the Steelers need to better themselves in, or add to their game plan as a whole.
Duel running backs work well
James Conner and Jaylen Samuels both proved themselves last season. Le’Veon Bell hasn’t been labeled as gone, yet. If the Steelers have the weapons, using them is key.
The NFL is evolving. Teams are utilizing two running backs left and right. Both the Patriots and Rams have one-two punches, even with players like Todd Gurley and James White. Meaning no matter who the No. 1 runner is Pittsburgh is, there should be at least a No. 2 who gets quality reps.
Using all the options this team has does nothing but add to their offense. If Antonio Brown isn’t going to be around having a running game with three stars is a solid replacement.
