TRACKING TEBOW

Tomlin said that if he had to do it again, he wouldn't have defended Denver quarterback Tim Tebow any differently.

"Probably, the responsibilities associated with defending their run gaps kind of dictated at times how you attack them," Tomlin said. "Obviously they made some nice plays on us, and in hindsight you would analyze with a fine-tooth comb some of the things you did, but I think your options are limited in terms of how you attack them because of run-gap responsibilities."

Tebow completed only 10 passes but threw for 316 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He connected on five completions of 30 yards or longer. Coming into the game, the Steelers gave up seven this season.

You know, I realize I may get criticized for this simplistic approach,
but whatever happened to "next man up" even when we NEED to
make adjustments during the game?

Even with our D line injuries, if it ain't working, it ain't working; and we
HAVE to adjust the coverage with who we have out there.

I'm glad to see this article...I think we stunk up the field in that game on
both sides of the ball.

And, I believe the players know we didn't adjust like we needed to either.
How many of our defensive guys admitted we left Ike out there alone?
You think that was their choice or because they were told to stay the course?

That's what freakin' half time is for...review and adjust.

Next man up doesn't necessarily work when you are asking three fat guys - 2 of whom are rookies who do not start - to play the entire game without a backup.
