I think this was the subject of a thread last week on the Trib board (another example of their writers plundering message boards? :lol: ) Anyway...a good read.

Tomlin was right when he talked about needing a "Core 4" to lead the special teams. Good special teams are usually a result of good talent and depth not schemes. The problem that the Steelers have been having is a direct result of their lack of depth at key positions such as LB and DB. Andre Frazier and Arnold Harrison aren't ever going to play regular in this league and LBs should be studs on your STs.

It seems that picking up Fox and Humpal and Mundy in the draft they were thinking the STs need to get better. Let's hope they figure it out soon.

The dreaded S.T.
Five close game back-breakers, I'm thinking that with all these new guys we got coming in this year we have gone a little heavy with the ones who are possibly going to return the ball and light on who is going to stop the return.

I probably sound like a broken record on this subject... but IMO Tomlin had a chance to look like a ST genius.

He had an opportunity to bring Chidi back into the fold last season...
