Notice the last sentence -
Zierlein worked almost exclusively with the offensive tackles for the Bills while offensive line coach Jim McNally worked primarily with the centers and guards.
Considering the fact that the bright spot for the Bills' O-Line is Peters and Pennington this year, particularly Pennington's development in the last 9 games, no wonder the Steelers came calling.
On the Bills side, this cannot be a good thing. I'm sure they are counting on Pennington to step up next year, and now at least, he lost the one who guided him throughout the season and must work with someone potentially has a different technique.
In the big picture, I wonder if Zierlein is the one who suggested the O-Line shuffle involving both tackles. Remember Gandy played at LT the entire year the year before and got praises from McNally. Then again, Pennington was only available this year.
