Mike Tomlin

We won the game.

We scored more points.

He had zero sacks.

And so there was no significant sea change.

We certainly got a challenge this week because they have a formidable tandem.

But as I mentioned, we better do a really good job of minimizing the amount we're in those one-dimensional circumstances.

Do they move those two guys around a lot, or do they tend to kind of be where they are?

They move them around, but, you know, they move one to one side, they move the other one to the other side, and so it's still big issues.

I think there's no price that you can put on rush.

It's probably the most significant component of good defense collectively.

I think that's why the edge rushers make what they make globally.

They might be the highest paid position in our sport outside of quarterback.

And so anytime you have a significant rush, it is a challenge for the opposing offensive unit.

That's why we value top-end rushmen and depth at that position.

I'm sure that's why some of the teams that you mentioned do as well.

And so it certainly is a challenge, but it's certainly not a new challenge.

Our unit and units face it week in and week out.

because it is that significant in today's game.

The weightiest downs are generally one-dimensional passing moments.

Those guys, more than top flight cover guys, have an impact on what goes down in those moments.
