From the article

Miller's 20 carries in Week 5 were a pleasant surprise for fantasy managers, but we aren't going to get a similar workload this week. The Saints have run 60 plays with a lead this season. Over half of them came last week as they ran out the clock on the Giants. The Saints are the second-most run-heavy team with a lead this year. They are 17th in run rate when playing from behind, which is what Vegas expects to be the norm versus Pittsburgh on Sunday.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

Miller's Week 5 workload was game-script dependent; expect fewer carries vs. Steelers.

Miller is a sit despite his 20 carries in Week 5. The Saints have run 60 plays with a lead this season, with over half coming last week as they ran out the clock on the Giants. The Saints are the second-most run-heavy team with a lead but rank 17th in run rate when playing from behind. Vegas expects Pittsburgh to control the game, meaning Miller will see limited volume.
