Inactives for the #Steelers tonight vs. the Browns: QB Dobbs, SS Antoine Brooks, RB McFarland, OLB Elliott, OL Isidora, DL Buggs.

If you thought the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to diversify the offense this week with the addition of quarterback Joshua Dobbs, you are going to be disappointed. The Steelers announced the inactives for their wild-card playoff game with the Cleveland Browns and Dobbs was listed among them.
The use of Dobbs last week against the Browns proved to be nothing but gamesmanship without Dobbs in the lineup. The move did force Cleveland to dedicate time this week to prepare for the potential of Dobbs running the football but it’s not something they will see.
Among the rest of the inactives, the one surprise is Isaiah Buggs being inactive. With how much we’d expect the Browns to want to run the football, you might have assumed the Steelers would want as many defensive linemen as possible to rotate in.
