    First...Hello everyone...

    Happy New Year!!! I am a consistent reader...and a never poster.

    I enjoy reading all the different views and seeing what others are thinking.

    Back to my thought...Justin Gilbert is going to see the field this weekend. Earlier in the season, the Steelers used him to cover a tight end through out the contest and did a very good job.

    I think, from Tomlin's previous comments "Justin is in the future plans", that Gilbert is an ace in the hole so to speak. The Defense will need to handle Kelce, he could be the answer.

    The defense has a big challenge this weekend. Kelce and Hill are going to be tough. Keep them in relative check and the Steelers will be onto the AFC Championship Game.

    GO STEELERS!!!

    Welcome to the board :drinks:

    Heres a link that expends upon your thoughts:

    http://www.tulsaworld.com/sportsext...cle_c68e88dd-1db0-531a-9e6c-38c6e65ae4ad.html

    He only played 8 snaps though, maybe he'll see more action this game. He actually hasn't played a single defensive snap since the Miami game where he had 3. In fact, the only two games he saw any snaps was KC and Miami. All the rest have been on ST.

    I'm not sure how much he'll play now in a playoff game but I do hope he or Ayers are returning kicks.

    I think he did pretty well on Kelce in his limited snaps that day, but that was before the other young guys started to come around. I'm not sure how much - if at all - we go man on Sunday.
