Re: Listen to Tomlin. His team is built around the lines.

We have the cheapest O-line though, that's gotta count for something!! Right?

That is one of the greatest points you have ever made here. I didn't even think about that.

There is no friggin way that we met the minimum cap number for this roster unless Maybin's entire contract is counting against it.

Re: Listen to Tomlin. His team is built around the lines.

So you would have preferred NOT picking up three linemen early in the draft this year?

For the 80th time. You keep everyone while picking up players to work there way in.

You don't catapult your line and fill it with crap and ask your draft picks to get their asses kicked.

I've said it here many times, and it is well known

The game is won and lost in the trenches

****, Tomlin's Steelers O-line was 17 plays for 17 yards. That's impressive.

Sure, it's 7-7 now, but consistency needs to kick up for him to say anything for this year.

Super Bowl champs and Tomlin say it's because of the lines.

Our FO is a bunch of amateurs.

Wood, Levitre, Bell, Hangartner, Butler... drafted Maybin

Maybe we finally got that message???

The game is won in the trenches!!! That being said, I am not impressed with the Steelers O-Line. They are getting beat up right now.

Not really. I think HHs point is of those young guys the ones that don't work out are going to leave us zero chance for success this season.

Yeah their pass blocking isn't all that stellar, but their run blocking is better than ours. Same as it was last year.

With that said, I would take that line in a heartbeat....they give up a ton of sacks but a lot of that has to do with Ben's refusal to throw the ball away

Schobel hasn't done **** since 2006

2007: 6.5 sacks, 5 pass deflections, 5 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery, 45 tackles.

That isn't a bad season. And he had an injury last year. Tom Brady hasn't done **** since 2007. DuMBassCrew

Pittsburgh's O-line is terrible. It's been a weak point for a few years now. And it's even worse this year.

Pittsburgh is built around a stingy defense and consistent QB play.

James Harrison: Undrafted free agent if I remember correctly. Got cut by the Ravens. Now he's all pro.

But wait a minute! Where do the Steelers get off putting in a player that's unproven! How could they have ever expected to win?!

ben had all day to throw in the 4th quarter and overtime.

their run blocking sucked... but when you have a defense like that and a QB of that quality it doesn't matter much.

Those steelers keep up their unbelievable pace. last year they had hands down the hardest schedule in the league... and not only won the superbowl but home field advantage, they start out this season at home agaisnt one of the top 4 teams in the AFC and still win.

its going to be hard to stop them from repeating this year.
