For the second straight year Le’Veon Bell has been named the AFC Offensive Player of the Month for the final month of the season.

And for the second straight year he did it while playing in only four of the five games during the month.

Bell was named AFC Offensive Player of the Month for December, after a stretch where he had 69 carries for 310 yards and four touchdowns. Bell rushed for 117 yards against the Patriots, his 18th 100-yard game of his career, ranking fifth in Steelers history, and his fourth of the season.

He added 24 receptions for 259 yards and two touchdowns during December, and passed Franco Harris for most receptions by a Steelers running back. Against Cincinnati he had five receptions for 106 yards and a 35-yard touchdown catch. Bell led the AFC averaging 142.3 yards from scrimmage per game and led the conference with six touchdowns from scrimmage. He finished third in the AFC with 569 yards from scrimmage.

I didn't see that coming.

True Bell was under the radar because of Roethlisberger, Brown and JuJu, but Bell had a big impact, especially as receiver.
