What we learned in the Cardinals’ 23-17 loss to the Steelers

In a loss, there is a lot to take away from the game.

A TE scored but not against the Cardinals

The Cardinals have been bad against tight ends this season defensively, but the only tight end to score was their own. Charles Clay scored the Cardinals’ first touchdown of the game on a five-yard grab.

Defensively, the Steelers only got one catch for three yards from tight end Vance McDonald. He only has averaged three catches per game and left the game with a concussion.

That said, when the Cardinals have given up two touchdowns to a tight end named Ross Dwelley, this can be seen as progress, even though the Steelers use their tight ends very little in the passing game.
