Holy crap ! What a NIGHTMARE of a game and to lose both Pouncy and Foote for probably the whole year ! OMG !

There were other significant injuries reported by Tomlin as well. Suisam - Hamstring, Hyphen - ?, Allen - knee ?

Wow! This one ranks as one of the Top 5 worst Steeler games I've ever seen !

- - - Updated - - -

Pouncey has injuries to his MCL and ACL.

Foote ruptured his BICEP !!

- - - Updated - - -

This was most likely Larry Foote's last game as a Steeler and probably for his career. Shiittty way to go out.

Miracle recovery by Spence to replace him? No?

I really want to know what David was thinking as he took out his own teammate.

Steelers' Maurkice Pouncey, Larry Foote out for year?


The Pittsburgh Steelers got their weekly offensive line injury out of the way early in Sunday's 16-9 loss to the Tennessee Titans.

Three-time Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey was carted off the field in the first quarter after sustaining an apparent right knee injury. Teammate David DeCastro dove on a cut-block attempt, but missed his intended target and drilled Pouncey directly in the back of the leg...

Yeah... it's going to be a long season.

Losing Pouncey is definitely going to hurt the offense (or lack thereof). This may be it for Larry Foote being as old as he is.

sucks ...

I would try and move Chris Carter inside and see how much his quick first step helps in Lebeaus X Blitz ..just not sure how well he holds up against the run but other than starting a rookie or putting Worilds inside what choices do we have ?

What the heck was DeCastro thinking? And if Bicknell is teaching cut blocking, fire him today. I can't stand that shit.

Decastro did to Pouncey what Gilbert did to Decastro last season. Houston, we have a problem here. The Steelers' OL players are more dangerous to each other than opposing defenses are.

Take note of what Gilbert is doing. Are you kidding me? He looks like a speed bump.

I'll take Gilbert's inept play there over DeCastro's any day. At least he was lunging at the feet of someone on the other team. What the hell was DeCastro thinking? The more I look at it the less it makes any sense at all.

its the kind of blocking that I despise and if trying to take out another players knee is what is being taught by this new Line coach I want no part of it

I agree. I really hate it and don't think there's any place for it in the NFL.

Damn, DeCastro needs some contacts because he went straight for Pouncey.

Yeah, it's sloppy play, our offensive linemen have 2 left feet.

That is one big thing I HATE about the NFL is allowing this crap !The owners and competition committee need to outlaw this shittt ASAP !!!

You can tell by his post game interview that the kid is truly devastated about what happened.

Yeah, just noticed that Gilbert dove at the legs of the Titans DE, as well as DeCastro diving into Pouncey almost at the same time. If this is what Bicknell's zone blocking scheme involves then this crap needs to go. I know it is technically "legal", but it needs to be outlawed. Whenever I see it I really consider it under-handed and cheap. The fact that it is not outlawed just proves the hypocrisy of the NFL front office.......protect the QBs at all costs, and minimize head to head blows due to the negative publicity it brings............but do nothing to protect the guys in the trenches.

I thought the same thing when I heard that Larry tore his triceps. It is a terrible way to end his career.
