Shazier is the key element in this defense. When he plays well - things happen.
Shazier if fast! Wow, huge play!

Is everyone still convinced the Steelers will lose this game?
Did anyone notice, has Hargrave been playing more as a DE or a DT...I wonder if he is better as a DE right now...
ok i can breathe easier
goddamn that was a hit
If nothing else the Steelers are hitting some people today....lol
Looks like someone FINALLY realized that Jones is better as an ILB in a 3-4. Timmons is rotating to the edge when Jones comes in.
This is what I was talking about in another thread - get creative about the roles and alignments you put players in. Don't get rigid in your thinking.
Butler hasn't been using Mitchell the same way this year. He was dishing out humungous hits like that all last year. With the youth in the secondary, he hasn't been using him the same way this year. When he is allowed to just come up and pop people, he makes NFL receivers drop passes, get alligator arms, and has an intimidation factor that can't be denied.
He is not a great cover safety, and he is not perfect.....but man he can hit.
excuse me, but THAT WASN'T HOLDING AGAINST MOATS??? The guy rode him all the way to the ground!
Not when he's put in a position in the field and scheme that plays to his strengths. Remember, he moved to FS because of the deficiencies at safety. He is a natural SS.
People seem to forget how much he helped this defense last year with that vicious hitting and intimidation.
For sure! But at least they are trying things. This week it had great results, but I am even more excited about the process rather than the results.
Whatever flavor of zone-bltizing 3-4 you want to role out there, it works best when you start moving people all over the place and do totally unexpected things. Something we have not seen from this team so far in 2016.
These Lebeau like 10 yard cushions are really frustrating. I had hoped Butler would be a little more aggressive. I'm not expecting a Buddy Ryan 46 defense with press man coverage but just conceding these 6-8 yard passes is just infuriating
lame penalty
our team needs to get on the juggs machines
They could have had 5 interceptions today.
Signed, sealed and delivered!!!
Angel Baby Faith our one and only 1/11/00 - 9/9/16 We love you.
Jarvis just doesn't have the strength or the moves to be a pass rusher.... Maybe he has a future as an insider LB but he's useless as a pass rusher.
Don't move the goalposts. The Defense played really well today.It's been pretty much all day. (Last 5 games?) The browns suck and haven't capitalized but the receivers have been open all game.
The big knock on Tomlin was beating bad teams on the road. Well he did. He beat a winless Browns Team in Cleveland.
