The Steelers have always played packages other than just a base 3-4, but in the latter half of this year it seems they've completely moved away from it. Mclendon and McCullers are almost never on the field anymore whereas early on they'd play 50% of snaps. In the past several weeks they've been closer to 20%.

McCullers hasn't really taken the step this year that I thought he would. I still hope he turns into a starter, and you have a defensive line of Heyward-McCullers-Tuitt. Dominance. Absolute dominance.

I know it's windy, we should be trying to do some intermediate stuff right now. Open things up for Toussant, and then gash them for a big play.

In contrast of Tomlin, Haley is frighteningly conservative. They were killing the Broncos with speed and skill so Haley started calling screens and runs non-stop. :help:

I still find it crazy that somehow Gay ended up a decently reliable corner
