Steelers Need Big Play From Three Defenders vs. Dolphins

The Pittsburgh Steelers need small names to step up against an athletic Dolphins offense.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers aren't going to get their entire team back in Week 7 against the Miami Dolphins, so for another week, they need names who many look past to step up. 

In Week 6's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, there were a few defenders who stepped up in major ways. The defensive line was on fire, the underdog cornerbacks "got their bone" and their last remaining veteran safety showed just how far he's come since his rookie season. 

This week, they need some of those same names to step. There are three in particular, though, that Pittsburgh will count on to shut down the Dolphin's insanely athletic offense.
