It has the potential to be the story of the year. A much-maligned Steelers (http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/pittsburgh-steelers) offense, bursting at the seams with playmakers, plods along through the first half of the season grossly under-performing to expectations. The offensive coordinator, already a controversial figure prior to the season's start, comes under increasingly heavier fire.
Then suddenly...fireworks.


The Steelers' offense comes to life in a magical 3-minute explosion against the Texans (http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/houston-texans) and proceeds to demolish two respectable defenses in back-to-back weeks. Led by a hall of fame quarterback and a bevy of talent, the Steelers' offense comes to life in a historic splurge of touchdowns which shows no signs of slowing down in the coming weeks against two appetizing opponents in the Jets (http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/new-york-jets) and Titans (http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/tennessee-titans).

It's the stuff Super Bowl runs are made of.

No, seriously it is...........

The Steelers increased their use of two-tight-end sets from Week 2 by 25% in Week 9.

Using Bryant and more 2 tight end sits has made a big difference.
