Steelers Resign Spaeth

[phillyesq]

To a two year deal per numerous reports. I have not seen the numbers yet.

Good move. He doesn't offer much as a receiver but he is a great asset in the running game.

hopefully league minimum

The Steelers fire yet another Steeler? What is happening?

Receptions etc dont tell the whole story. Id like to see numbers for the running game with and without him on the field but im not sure those numbers exist.

This is a good signing. He's made himself into a blocking force. Got to have a 2nd TE. He's a very nice choice.

In the next Steelers-Ravens game:

1. Line Spaeth up at left tackle (and be the left-most person on the line of scrimmage).
2. Have Archer report as ineligible.
3. Throw the ball to Spaeth.
4. Watch John Harbaugh melt down on the sideline.

This is something the 2015 Steelers should definitely do.

Archer pretty much was an ineligible receiver during his rookie year, so at least he used to that role.

This is the kind of thinking I like.

1. Lose to the Pats** during the season.
2. Go 15-1.
3. Win the AFC North.
4. Win the Super Bowl.

This is something the 2015 Steelers should definitely do.

That is very magnanimous of you tiproast!

Will you guys be going after Andre Johnson, Percy Harvin, and Jordan Cameron this afternoon?

And people say its harder to repeat and win multiple SB's now than it was in the 70's and 80's. HOGWASH. It's just the opposite. It's easier now to just go out and get what you need to win. You just gotta do it wisely. (Cap)

I doubt any of those are future Patriots.

Johnson probably will want more money than Pats will pay.
Harvin couldn't play for Pete Carroll - he wouldn't last long in Belichick's locker room.
I think the Pats are happy with their TE corps at present - they're carrying three TEs and a true FB.

But nobody knows what the Hoodie will do. My guess is we'll be sitting on the sidelines this year.
