General Steelers chat

OK so instead of starting a bunch of threads I'm just going to start an ongoing thread. Crave the steelers oline really started to gel down the stretch and after a brutal start Ben finished 7th in times sacked which is the lowest he has been in awhile. DeCastro is looking like the guy we thought we picked and Beachum was extremely solid at LT.

It was a desperation move to go fast pace with Ben, the season was decided, and it was Haley's last hurrah, you do not have the horses up front to go no huddle 16 games.

The plan was to use it all last season until Pouncey went down. The only one I would question would be foster but the other ones are smaller quicker lineman. It worked for 9 weeks why not 16? I actually think Haley saved his job and I have done a complete 180 on him. Werner said that the cards offense didn't take off until he fully bought into Haleys system which I think Ben finally did. Come on man 7 sacks in the last 7 games is huge for this oline.

What position do you believe you will be targeting in the 1st round of the draft this year?

[thesteelhurtin]

I'm thinking a big tall WR or Nix from ND. I'm not sure on corners in this year's draft. They went defense last year so it will be offense this year. I can't remember the last time they took the same side of the ball in the first in back to back year.

I would be happy with Ebron or the big WR from FSU. I would actually look at Devin Street late in the draft as well.

[thesteelhurtin]

The steelers fired their oline coach but he was stripped of his duties half way through the year anyways so no biggie there

[oldcrow]

hell yes

Kelvin would fucking awesome as well

either in rd1

and the 4th highest scoring offense in the nfl will jump 3 spots come next year

especially with this

young fast offensive oline we have

 

but

 

that's what you get when you have

THE NUMBER ONE FRANCHISE IN THE NFL

 

lol at fans who say in decline

 

 

haters

[cravnravn]

Decline

[oldcrow]

seems your team copied ours

missing the playoffs after winning super bowl

but you overpaid your qb unlike us

 

hoping you guys can catchup in rings

 

6> 2

lol

[thesteelhurtin]

It looks as if Haley in staying as well and I like that a lot. If you remember the cards super bowl run their offense wasnt great to start the season then about the half way point took off just like ours did this year only difference is they got into the play offs.

[oldcrow]

WATCH OUT!!!!!

 

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

gonna be freakin exciting

i guess

i can live with

2 .500 season just knowing we'll be back on top in 2014

hell
