TD716 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) We need our DT’s to hold the line. Poona and Settle are just ok. We cannot have Poona, settle and epenesa in at the same time against a run first offense. Edited January 13 by TD716 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I agree, we need to elevate an extra DT for Sunday. The Steelers will be running 60+% of the time. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably conservative. They might run 90%+. Mac Jones threw 3x in weather like this. It's not like Rudolph is that much better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 He’s on the 53. He’s just been inactive since DQ has been back. But with Rapp and Davis out the roster spot is most certainly there for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 He will be. There’s not going to be much passing at all. It’s a shame the weather is going to be so severe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If either team can take a two score lead (10-0 or better), the other team will be in deep doo-doo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Make Settle inactive, Poona has been trending upwards so keep him in the rotation but if there was ever a game where you need to big time run stuffers its this one. I like Settle he is a nice rotational DT but he is more of a penetrator than a run stuffer in my opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah I corrected that, meant to say Linny was there and Lenny and Klein are getting called up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warriorspikes51 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I agree and especially because he’s had a few weeks off. A front 4 of Rousseau, Linval, DaQuan and Oliver could be really tough to run against Unfortunately, this staff seems to have a ton of faith in Settle so I don’t expect it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
