    What you just wrote and what Jamar Chase said are completely different things.

    Congrats on understanding the difference between zone and man coverage though. I will send you out your 4th grade flag football coaching license later today. :thumbs_up:

    Basically at this point.

    That said, I do believe there is something there; provided if he is redshirt his Rookie Season. However, for even this to work, Aaron Rodgers would have to return in 2026. Will he?!


    That remains to be seen.

    LeBeau and Cowher couldn't stop Brady and the Patriots with that dink and dunk offense, and what answer did the great LeBeau have for Rodgers and Green Bay in the Super Bowl.

    At least against the QBs who was not all-time great often struggle against LeBeau in his best years

    There were some on here complaining about Lebeau too. Often you knew what the defense was going to do came up in conversation.

    It was true at the end and it was time for a change after 2014 but the problem it was Butler and Austin after that as DC

    For Lebeau,in his prime and in that era he was,it was a amazing defense and well coached

    At the end of his tenure when he had to dumb down the playbook because:

    A) They didnt have the same caliber of talent.
    B) They wanted to get rookies on the field faster and it took too long for them to learn his system.

    :hmmm:it is just a:scratch: how one week we are going to the Superbowl ---everyone peeing their pants saying wow what a def. Then the next we are all:poopy::poopy::poopy::poopy: ourselves and saying we suck our def. sucks. There is something not right about any of this. We cannot get any lead in the division. I think it's because Tomlin wants everything close to give us all heart attacks...Can't put any opponent away in a game got to keep it close...Why wtf..just beat teams.. we came out in the Bengals game was beating them controlling everything ..then:zombie::puking2::puking::puking 5::puking 5::puking 5: .:confused1::confused1::confused1::confused1::confused1::confused1::confused1:

    Sounds about right because I seem to remember that rookies contract were up by the time they learned it!

    That might have been a reason they moved on from LeBeau you can't have rookies sitting for 2-3 years.

    LeBeau was great for so long but this is true it was time to move on after 2014 since the nfl had changed a lot with cheap rookie contract and safety rules all after the 2010 season....But the problem,his replacement was Butler.
    The Steelers needed an outside hire with fresh ideas and a complete overhaul in their scheme after 2014

    I'm still waiting for this moment right now.

    I remember after a Steelers loss to the Titans Matt Hasselbeck said something about they knew what LeBeau's defense was going to do.

    Butler's defense led the league in sacks for 5 consecutive years IIRC, his coverage schemes weren't good though.

    When I was talking about LeBeau,I was talking about his prime(2004 to 2010)...The defense was not the same after the new safety rules after the 2010 season...Dom Capers had the same problem in Green Bay after 2010 too

    Keep in mind that I have been on record in stating that Sellers wasn't declaring barring him tearing the SEC apart before the season started. Him returning would do a lot of good for him. Could turn out the other way.


    Time will tell.
