2 ways i can think of:

keep in leach, bruener, dreessen, for like a max-protect pocket

or

run trick plays. the steelers d was so blood thirsty by about the 3rd quarter that they probably would've bitten on a reverse or flea flicker or the brady-to-moss-to-brady-to-what'shisface type of play.

it seemed we had no counter, that what we were doing was just going to have to work or not.
