our one-two punch that I shouted out last week, Jalen Warren and Rico Dowdle. Those guys are absolutely cooking

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Dowdle is cooking as part of Steelers' one-two punch; run-first approach protects Rodgers.

Dowdle is part of the Steelers' featured one-two punch with Jalen Warren. The shift toward feeding both backs more prominently in the offense is helping keep Aaron Rodgers upright by reducing his pass attempts and sack load. The Steelers' remaining schedule features multiple teams with weak run defenses, making this run-first approach sustainable and valuable for Dowdle's workload.
