Thinking the same thing but hey Dick knows best.
It's very possible that Heyward wasn't ready to start before this season. Whining about it ain't going to change a thing. Heyward appears to be a good player and that's all that matters at this point.
Heyward looked great. And to think we passed on James Laurinaitis to draft Hood.
Draft is a crap shoot it guess.
Heyward was one of the few bright spots. He seems to be one of the few decent players the Steelers can build around.

Dick should be fired for playing Worthless Hood

I am mildly optimistic, but also keep in mind that he is part of the D-line that was absolutely gashed by the great Steven Ridley and the incomparable LaGarrette Blount. He certainly had a role in that too, I would assume.
Heyward should have had 2 sacks on Sunday. he forced Brady into Worilds on 1 of them but Heyward was in his face and should have at least got 1/2 a sack

I'm with you on this. The biggest problem is we can't stop the run. But I'll be patient with Heyward. I remember Keisel's first season, he got pressure, but he regularly got washed out against the run. He finally turned out ok in his second full season.
