    Agreed.


    At the absolute worst, make Munchak the highest paid Assistant Coach in the league. If not that, NFL History for certain.



    He has been nothing short of a miracle.

    Dare I say that the backs appeared to be coached well this past week? They were very obviously making sure to protect the ball before contact. Hope this remains a focus going forward.

    Lets give some love to the Offensive Line. And who said they couldn't run block? Balanced Offense = Win.

    Samuels was on a mission. And Washington shook off the funk and contributed solid. And what can you say about Haden? Best to think about giving an extension to this man after the season. And TJ was a beast, as he is. Some keep knocking Edmonds, the kid will only get better. Solid game.

    Maybe the game ball should really go to Jim Herrmann. Do you really think that Butler had the answers?

    well to be fair NE has a bad run defense, good secondary though. NO will likely shut down our run game so Ben better be ready.

    I know I'm only repeating what has been said, but I can't help myself. The whole team played well and some guys really stepped up. If I could only give one game ball (and I think there should be many handed out), I would have to give it to Watt. I noticed that Brady felt like he had to account for Watt every down. Brady was literally scared of the guy, and I loved it! To listen to the fans was a thing of beauty, you folks that attended the game contributed to Brady never feeling comfortable. That is his weakness, and it was exploited for sure!

    Not that they couldn't but they haven't been great at it, only received 65 grade for the NE game. Samuels deserves a lot of the credit.

    On the year the Steelers have graded out with a 62 for run blocking.

    Fichtner deserves a lot of credit for Sundays success too, added a cut back run that they burned NE with over and over.

    It'd not allowed to say positive things about the Steelers coaches on this message board.

    would love to use both to offset the defense however I am terrified of James fumbling the ball in a game where you cannot afford to cough the ball up.

    Samuels protected the ball well. Ridley had three touches and he bobbled the ball as he was tackled on one of them.

    Conner needs to learn to do that, his fumbles cost the team in Cleveland and Denver.

    We definitely could use a one-two punch at running back.

    Remember Conner is 233 and Samuels is 225, not to many 190 lb
    cb's /safety's like to come up and tackle these type of runners. Especially when it gets
    to the 4th quarter. LOL , as Bussy use to say, time to go make the donuts.
