Finney seems better than Foster and Nix is a bull at fullback. These two need to play more
 
I'll say this about Finney when he pulled around the right side as the lead blocker for Bell he was trucking and opening some huge holes! This kid is the real deal plus I love the fact that he grew up a lifelong Steelers Fan.
 
Foster is having a Pro bowl Year.. Nix does need to be used more..

One play I liked is when Finney pancaked the guy big v was blocking. He's got some old school nasty in him. He could be the best interior run blocker on the team.
 
Finney is really impressing. He looks pretty damn solid out there and he's definitely a lot faster when pulling around to the edges. As for Nix, nothing we all didn't already know, he's a monster blocker and great special teams guys.
 
He had two holding calls, why aren't you vilifying him like you do Decastro (who had none)?

All fine and good ... But, what part of Davis' game did you like the most today Coach? Inquiring minds want to know!

Lol well he gave up a Touchdown and missed at least two tackles vs one of the worst passing teams in the NFL.

Psu should be in the college football playoffs.

Now see, attention to detail is key here ... I asked "But, what part of Davis' game did you like the most Coach?" Not, what part you found most appalling. Let's try again. And focus on the positive!

Blitzing. But this isn't a Davis thread jackoff.
 
Thing is that line is not a situational substitution position with the exception of bringing in an extra tackle.

So, blitzing ... that's good. By blitzing you also mean finishing the tackle for a sack? He was good at that today, I agree. (who is this Jack Off that you refer to? I'm SteelBuckeye)
Now, as far as Finney, he's a good young player. He'll be a good replacement for Foster someday. Barring injury, that won't happen this year. But it's great to know "the stage isn't too big for him".
Nix? A true old school football player. May have to order his jersey.

Agreed. I'm sure those 10 plus thread will be coming from you later on in the week. He can at least give you a few days to come up with your angle on Davis for the week will be.

At least Davis is making it harder for Coach to come up with material.

and he was up against a very good WR on a snowy field...much easier for the WR to make his break than it is for the S to match it.....plus he did get 1.5 sacks....

I was gonna point out how fast he is. The dude is a brute. Keep him in. A good strong game from him. I like Nix and think he can be useful for 1st downs and short yardage situations. Are the Steelers the only team that uses a true fullback? I really don't follow the rest of the league

Packers use one too ... used to be they just stole them from the Steelers. lol
 
I couldn't believe how fast Nix got down on kick coverage. Also I noticed Finney right away. Easy to spot nasty and fast pulling.




Salute the nation
 
I would have to see Finley's above the head measurements, before I would decide how much to play him.

Those big head ******* are only good for head and shoulder commercials.
