Boy... if you wanted to go against type for this game... four or five wide would be something KC has never seen us do on tape. With JuJu back... it would be interesting!

Maybe just a half dozen plays?
 
Assuming JuJu is healthy and ready to go, our top 3 WRs with be DJ, Claypool, and JuJu. I really don't want to take our other top weapons (Harris and Freiermuth) off the field for Washington and McCloud.
 
Run run pass…. It’s the Steeler way and the entire league knows it


EASIest offense to defend and easiert defense to go against.




Salute the nation
 
I don't think we want to go 5 wide. KC will jam us at the LOS and our OL won't hold up to get the ball deep.
 
I would basically run the air raid offense and give Ben the call on the field. If we run our regular offense we will lose by 3 TDs.
 
Assuming JuJu is healthy and ready to go, our top 3 WRs with be DJ, Claypool, and JuJu. I really don't want to take our other top weapons (Harris and Freiermuth) off the field for Washington and McCloud.
I guess this is dependant moreso on Juju's rust factor than health status. I presume full practice status is full go status. In a perfect world it is what he shows in practice dictating playing reps. But Green,Buggs, and Harvin has me wondering just how true that way of thinking is.
 
4 or 5 wide only means we put Muuth and Harris outside with 3 WR's. I'd rather keep Harris in the backfield to maintain the threat of a run.
 
Even if we ran 5 WR ... it still would never be 5 WIDE. We like to bunch everyone up at the line no matter what we are doing. Maybe we could call it the "5 bunched at the line" or something.
 
You could see a few sets, but the ball is gone so fast, I'm doubtful it will produce big plays.
