If we "lose" or trade Hartwig - is it a done deal, Pouncey starts at center? As a rookie, that's not the Steeler way!!

We got our "6-PACK" - time to work on a CASE!
HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO! -
Re: So what does it mean for Pouncey?
He's the best player we have at center, so he plays.
As a rookie, Casey was the best player we had at NT, so he played.
As a rookie, Heathwas the best player we had at TE, so he played.Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.
Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.
We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.
We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus. -

Pouncey will be the first rookie to start the season opener on the O-Line since Kendall Simmons in 2003 I believe.Comment

Re: So what does it mean for Pouncey?
Pouncey is so good already I can hardly wait until he has a couple of season as our center, I'm betting he will be named to the pro bowl by his third season.Comment

Why does it stick in my mind Kendall started for us as a rookie? Now I'll need to investigate.Originally posted by Discipline of SteelComment

Re: So what does it mean for Pouncey?
Blah. OK TECHNICALLY I was wrong.
Kendall Didn't start until week 2 against Oakland. So I was close for being off the top of my head, but you were right. Marvell Smith it is. I commend you.Comment

Re: So what does it mean for Pouncey?
That sucks. There hasn't been such a high draft pick to disappoint as bad as me since Limas Sweed. I take solace in the wise words of Ryan Clark from Twitter:Originally posted by aggiebones

Pouncey may be the Steelers best OL. And if you don't believe it now....You will after Ben comes back and plays some games taking the snaps from Pouncey.Comment
