    Your pulling out only 09'. Show me where Joe thomas gave up 27.5 sacks in any 3 year span.

    Look at Kemos #s from 08-10.

    Even the much criticized Kemo had far less sacks and penalties

      I'm pulling out '09 because that was his last year he started 16 games and so did Starks. I also put those stats against the others in "09.

      Again...Look at the Gs & Cs...And you will see the light about false start penalties.

      You won't win any argument in the sack department with any OL playing in front of BB.

      Big Ben is Big Ben...That's the only answer you need.

      I don't know on what level you coach but hopefully you understand the tendancies and how you gameplan to it. BB is constantly gameplanned against by not letting him escape the pocket to his right where he is dangerous and has great ability and accuracy on the run when he tries to extend a play. I don't think I need to tell you what that means in relation to Colon's sacks numbers if you are what you say you are.

        You do realize that teams tend to get the majority of their sacks from an outside pass rush, not from the big uglies that clog the middle, right? If you think that Chris Kemoeatu is a better o-lineman than Willie Colon, I don't know what to tell you.
        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.

          Lets just put it this way. All BS and name calling aside, the stats are the stats, and they dont lie. He allowed 27.5 sacks in 3 seasons and is among the league leaders in penalties. If thats what the two of you think makes a good tackle than so be it. Personally I think Colons upside is about the same as Trai Essex.
