Would think Shefty knows how to use the proper word. Between that and "No NFL has played longer" he's slipping today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd wonder if they go Kelly Green against the Cowboys? But I suppose, they may go Prime Time at least one time with the Kelly Green, so maybe the Commies is a good one?

I think those stories are mostly fairy tale. The people orchestrating the drive bys are most likely the ones who are financially benefiting from the game.

Iggles_Phan Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 The Steelers just don't change their head coach. They hire their guy and they ride him until he's ready to move on. The last three Stiller HCs takes you from Tomlin, to Cowher, to Chuck Noll, who was hired in 1969, a year before the NFL-AFL merger was finalized and the two leagues formed a single one. Before they hired Noll, they had the typical merry go round style of replacing HCs and they were a terrible franchise. I'm not sure which caused the other, but there is a lot to be said for stability in the HC spot... especially if the guy you have is competent.

bpac55 Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Been trying to figure out this Reuben Frank quote about Nakobe Dean. Maybe the last sentence is all he needs to tell himself when he asks why he isn't seeing Dean run with the 1st team? If he isn't good enough, why should he get half the 1st team snaps in practice? How is that "fair"? I'm glad they aren't just letting him run with the 1st team. He's done nothing to earn the position. I am saying I’d like to see him get at least half the 1st-team snaps just to learn more about him. Maybe once training camp comes around next month he’ll get more run with the 1’s. We’ve seen mostly White and Baun but also a little White and Dean and even some Baun and Dean. But mostly White and Baum. Maybe Dean just needs to do better picking up a fourth defensive scheme in three years. Maybe he’s still working through some things with his foot, although he’s healthy enough to get full reps with the 2’s. Maybe the coaches want him to understand nothing is going to be handed to him. Heck, maybe Baun is just better. He looked fine in the five practices open to the media, although obviously with no pads. I just want to see Nakobe get a fair chance. If he’s not good enough, he’s not good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s not good enough, he’s not good enough. Dean should earn his PT, no question. No issue with him taking 2nd team rep in OTA’s. Hopefully it’s a wake up call to him. That said, I’m not buying the Baun hype given his career path so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s not good enough, he’s not good enough. Dean's issue has been availability, so he has not history that demands he is the 1st team LB. It's harsh, but that is the NFL.
