Below are the snaps counts from the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday 37-27 win over the Detroit Lions along with some observations.
On offense, wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders played just 19 snaps before leaving the game with an injured foot.
Despite being passed on the depth chart last week, tight end David Paulson played five more snaps than Michael Palmer did.
On defense, being as Will Allen played 66 snaps, you can see just how much they used their quarters package that included the dime personnel. In fact, Vince Williams played all of seven snaps.
