Re: Late-game defense an area of improvement for Steelers DC Keith Butler
Either Butler has his personnel in place or he doesn't. This season will either see his defense finally succeed or he may find himself back as the LBs coach and the Steelers have a new DC. The success he had as the LBs coach under Lebeau still makes me want to keep this guy around.
