Rookie Maurkice Pounceyhttp://www.steelers.com/assets/nflimg/icon-article-link.gif (http://www.steelers.com/team/roster/maurkice-pouncey/9d33439a-ec2b-4a65-a2a2-0b63719b0604/) finished an impressive rookie season, earning a spot on the Pro Bowl roster and winning the Steelers rookie of the year honors.

Now he is ready to take the next step and play in his first NFL playoff game.

“I can’t complain at all,” said Pouncey. “My rookie year has been the best time of my life. It’s been an honor for me. Things have been going my way and hopefully it will stay that way.

“I am blessed. I am with the Pittsburgh Steelers, one of the best teams in the NFL. I smile all of the time and tell my family how crazy it is that I am here.”.............


................Steelers veterans have been giving the rookies plenty of advice about what to expect for the playoffs and they are listening closely.

“It’s going to be high intensity,” said wide receiver Antonio Brownhttp://www.steelers.com/assets/nflimg/icon-article-link.gif (http://www.steelers.com/team/roster/antonio-brown/859114e9-d70b-477b-8eaf-6f34bb1ffc03/). “It’s a win or go home type of environment. They want to make sure the young guys don’t make any errors and we are on top of our game.”...........
