Everyone acts like DWill doing what he did here was some kind of surprise. It wasn't. Sure he was older, but the carry split with a variety of backs during his prime in Carolina keep some of the wear and tear down.
Long story short, he replicated his Carolina stats with the Steelers rushing. He increased his reception stats -- why? Because Haley built an offense that flows through the unique skill set of Leveon Bell.
Yes, Ben is the trigger man and AB is the kill shot. But the match-up and formation flexibility that Bell brings to the field allows the Steelers to do some things on offense that may not be possible or at the least, not as effective, with a run only RB on the field.
Again, that does not mean that Bell should be given a ludicrous contract. But to deny his value to the team, is just trying to edit the situation to fit current emotions.
