Let me reverse the question. How many teams without at least an adequate running game have won the Super Bowl? It doesn't have to be an either or. Why not be competent in both?

It's kinda like do you have to choose between Lynard Skynard or the Allman Brothers? They are both great and you can like both. I saw a survey a number of years ago in which people had to choose, and I thought it was stupid.

I don't disagree with the premise: I agree you have to be "decent" across the board to win it all. But even in Cowher's days, we saw what a great running game and defense usually got you: a lot of season wins. And that was before they made the game so pass-heavy tilted. Bill didn't win it all until he had a franchise QB - came close, but couldn't win a ring.

The best thing about that line up (if true) is seeing Moore not starting.

mostly for the Steelers signings but post others if they are of interest



I know most will be disappointed....Nelson Ceaser signed with the seafags



Steelers signings

DE Julius Welschof
RB Daijun Edwards
CB Beenie Bishop
QB John Rhys Plumlee
LB, Jacoby Windmon

who?

 

[SteelBuckeye]

Obviously inaccurate. Troy and co. will have to earn their starts. We know by last season charting that they aren’t quick to insert green. That is their approach.

Baltimore has been doing this with Action Jackson for 6 seasons. I guess winning a playoff game has become the ultimate goal under Tomlin. Remember when championships were the goal? Ah, the good old days.

You can’t do one without the other

Daijun in the B&G.
Verron Haynes 2.0

I think it was Verne Lundquist who always called him "Vernon".

This kid could possibly play a “Slash” type role, though at a bit lower level. I also see a bit of Antwan Randle El in his game. Opens things up more if you can field a 2nd QB at another spot. Hopefully he has it in him to get one of the WR spots and PS QB

I was also thinking this Plumlee kid could be used in a ARE/Taysom Hill type role.

Yeah. It was Vern. Sucks that the SEC is going to espn now. CBS was more tolerable
