    As long as this guy doesn't celebrate tackles 15 yards down field. I will be happy and will consider him an upgrade.

    I agree I am so excited to see this team play D....don't get me wrong not trying to push spring or summer along but I am very hopeful to see this team in action and we haven't even talked about players that we draft yet. Man not even sure why they are playing the season just give us the trophy......

    Even if he isn't calling signals for the entire defense, it will help to have a communicator back there.

    Bostic has some experience calling the signals and the Steelers might prefer to have a linebacker doing it. Either way, those two should help cut down on the communication problems that have plagued the defense the last couple of seasons. That was one of the many ways the loss of Shazier hurt, but the communication screw-ups were happening with Shazier. They have been a noticeable problem since Butler took over as DC.

    Having experienced guys is a plus but you don't want to many people shouting out stuff. One guy to call the D and I am pretty sure that guy will be Burnett. I agree this was lacking when Shazier went down :thumbs_up:

    True but I don't get this take people keep saying that "anything is an upgrade over Mitchell". I get he was that bad but if you go from an F to a D in your class are you happy? That's improving yes but is that good? I want people to give a real take instead of just saying Mitchell did this and he won't so instant upgrade. We don't just need an upgrade we need playmakers who will improve the team..

    It's not that simple unless you can point out where I called him a name....seems especially hypocritical when you consider the amount of name calling and insults directed at the team's very own players and coaches including previous comments he's made specifically . Where's the line drawn o pious one??


    You're talking about going a certain direction with a comment yet you never addressed his comment which is clearly unrelated to the mans capability on the field of play which really should be against message board rules because it has nothing to do with the Steelers nor the opening post, and could lead to debating on socio- economic issues. Why don't u address that next time b4 becoming a hypocritical jag off who misinterprets somebody's comment.

    The fact that he's versatile makes him an upgrade in my eyes. he appears to be a better sure tackler than Mitchell and atleast last season showed the wherewithal to leave his cinder blocks in the locker room and lace into a pair of cleats.

    I get it, the kneeling thing is a sensitive topic, we had a big dust up here with the whole tunnel fiasco but you can state your opinion without resorting to name calling.

    Once again, I would like somebody to point out where I called him a name....and I'm referring to Dsteelerct fan specifically. The other guy clearly doesn't know the difference so I was helping him out. Maybe he gets it now.

    Not to fan the fire but NYS was chiding you for calling the other guy a Dimwit. There are plenty of long-term users here that have deep seated disagreements here but have resisted the urge to use names. Have to say though... RPO and PWP might as well have ;-)

    To be technical I never called him a Dimwit. My specific comment was

    "Why is that? And his name is Eric not Kneeler..just like your name isn' Dimwit even though you might be one."

    In other words I was saying how would you like it if somebody called you dimwit?? Am I saying he's a dimwit? No. Just like when your mom heard you making fun of the fat kid and she says to you "how would you like it if somebody called you Retard?" Is your Mom actually calling you a retard or implying that you're a retard?? Absolutely not. Dude just need to be more respectful. He cowering behind a keyboard taking shots at people for no good reason who can't defend themselves so I'll do it for them if I feel the urge. I can't help it if people lack comprehension skills or the education system has failed them. There's a big difference between what I said and name calling.

    No you seem confused and miseducated. You should take a course in English 101 or take a few courses in English and then come back and comment.

    1) has nothing to do with an opinion and if you think that's what this is about you're about as lost as someone who still continues to think the kneeling was in protest of the flag and military . My issue was with him addressing him as "Kneeler"

    2) if you're implying by the word "idiotic" being used that I was calling him an "idiot" then that must mean that you think you're a mind reader. A person can make an idiotic statement and not be a idiot. My statement was made in anticipation of the fact that based upon his comment and the question i asked his only excuse for not wanting Eric Reid on this team is because he chose to kneel which means his opinion would be based upon something totally unrelated to the sport itself (i.e. ability, injuries), cost, or self destructive behavior.

    Are we addressing this post as best front office moves that help the Steelers win the SB?? or are we addressing this post as best front office moves that puts and keeps butts in the seats?? Answer that question and when you do I'll let u know if I choose to apologize for making that statement.

    In order for there to be a right side of the bell curve there must be some on the left.

    Is that what I'm doing? Oh my bad. I forgot you ran the board?? Or possibly you think you're the only person on the site who can go back and forth with someone. You're a piece of work and need sensitivity training it looks like. Fortunately i've come to the conclusion you're a troll so you dont need to worry about me responding back to you. Ironically enough if it was your comment that led to this continuous back and forth.
