    LOL...Perhaps we are an injury away from playing more 4 - 3 as our base defense...you never know...

    But I do agree that the DL played well and we appear to have quite a bit of young talent on the DL.

    Not sure I agree with your last statement..I think the Steelers have been very successful at this...Maybe not always via the draft but finding and keeping OLB talent has been a strength...

    Given the propensity for teams to line up in passing formations nearly every down, I think the Steelers will be playing a lot with nickel and big nickel defenses, which would include a 4 man line...

    would a 4-3 front look something like:

    Woodley - Hood - McClendon - Heyward/Keisel?

    It may not have the traditional 2 fast DE's but Carter or Worilds could sub in for some passing downs with Heyward/Keisel if needed.

    I'm not at all opposed to seeing this happen given that the most impressive defense I've seen over the past 5 years has been the Giants when they are firing on all cylinders.

    Would you people give up the 4-3 vs. 3-4 debate??? Does it really matter with teams having multiple formations and personel now???
    The Steelers are drafting still for 3-4 Fronts.
    Tomlin has been here 5 yrs. now and we are still a 3-4. Get over it...if & when it happens, it happens.

    This guy seems to be the talk of training camp, like Baron Batch was last year and Redman a few years ago. Wasn't there a poll or something on here asking who people that it would be this year. Just wondered if any picked this guy. I only got to see the second half of the Eagles game but I was wondering who the guy was getting in the backfield all the time until I was finally able to read the jersey.
