    I have a question. Does anybody here have any ideas/thoughts about how well/badly the pittsburgh steelers offensive line plays? It's kind of hard for me to tell given how long Ben holds the ball, but there run game seems to be coming up from what I've seen. They are however, ranked pretty low. Thoughts? Opinions? Thanks for the help.

    They're a mixed bag in pass pro. Partly because of Ben, partly themselves. They're lacking athletes IMO. Strong in run game though.

    Injuries have been a real concern.

    Ben holds on to the ball to long, but that's because of a variety of reasons. One, their like us, their pass protection is severely lacking so they use Heath Miller and Backs to help out a lot in that area. So that leaves their wideouts, and their wideouts consist on a lot of speed guys. They run a lot of stuff down the field that takes time to develop and Ben doesn't always have an outlet pass to a TE or Back. They miss Hines Ward in this regard as far as possession. Another reason Ben holds on to the ball to long is he can, he's so good at shrugging off blockings and making plays I think it's in his head to do so.
