Would we have won with Blount on the roster?

I agree... Tate should have been on a plane to Pittsburgh the moment we released Blount. I think they believed Bell was invincible due to how great he was playing.

Who makes that call, or in this case doesn't ... the GM?

I agree with what you are saying, and I wonder why the Pgh sports writers aren't making a big deal of that. I mean it was the playoffs.

Tate was not available when the Steelers released Blount...

Both Blount and Tate were released at approximately the same time, but Tate did not clear waivers. He was claimed by Minnesota and therefore unavailable.

we would still have got our as handed to us even if bell played.

Welp, in that case "insert RB name here" should have been on the plane... LOL.

thanks sunshine...

nothing wrong with reality

Tate had the same Issue with Playing time that Blount had.. No way was he coming here to watch Bell run from the sidelines. (if you guys remember they did speak to him immediately after Blount was Released)

Nope...Coaching game plan is why we lost.

On D. On O, Ben's poor game, combined with drops, a couple of bad refereeing calls ... not much on coaching.

"Would we have won with Blount on the roster?"

When LeGarratte was here, there was plenty of BLUNT on the roster. Now that's the Patriots' problem.

Mel Blount? Yes. He would have been a difference-maker.

Mel Blount? Yes. He would have been a difference-maker.

Mel Blount is one of my all-time favorite Steelers, but even if he could turn back the clock and be 25 again, I'm not sure he could be a difference-maker with the rules the way they are now.

Blount is running all over the Colts

[SanAntonioSteelerFan]

Game is making me sick.

Our win over the Colts doesn't look that impressive anymore.

[SteelBucks]

Blount is running all over the Colts

Go Seattle. That's all I have to say.

Thomlin failed to play Blount more.. we needed a big strong back like him.....
Blount is on his way to SB off a big game and Thomlin and the Steelers are sitting at home...
