1. Marcus Cannon is one MILLION times better this year than last year. Proof: He allowed fewer QB pressures/sacks in ALL of 2016 than he did in the 2015 playoff game against Denver alone. And completely stoned Von Miller in 2016 as part of that.

2. Nate Solder (IR last year) is healthy and playing well at LT.

3. Young OL better this year.

4. Dante Scarnecchia is back, and has really improved the whole OL.


It's like night and day. We CAN run the ball. We CAN pass protect. Amazing but true!

Agreed. The most notable difference by far. Losing Gronk hurts less considering how solid that O-line has played. Brady gets all the attention, but his job has been made so much easier this year because that Pats O-line is legit.

The way the Pats lose is ALWAYS when the DL controls our OL and Brady has no time. That is basically the only formula for beating the Pats, and the Chiefs might have that formula with Ford/Houston, while the Steelers definitely do not.

No defense? Steelers had 10 more sacks than the Chiefs. #12 ranked D. (Chiefs #24)

About what I figured... Scarnecchia was a nice boost.

That crazy old man is nails.

My favorite Scar story -- all NFL players and coaches must make themselves available to the media on Super Bowl media day so Scar -- who hates talking to reporters -- sits WAAAAY up in the nosebleed section of the stadium. Any reporter who wants to speak with him must pay the iron price of climbing all those steps.

Amnorix 01-03-2017 01:59 PM

My favor Scar fact -- he was once the interim Patriots head coach.....


....in 1992. After Dick MacPherson got sick the year before he was fired and the Pats hired Parcells.

Well, yeah, but they played the Browns twice. That's got to be 20 sacks or so.

Agreed. And I'll take Chiefs D, but this myth that the Steelers suck on defense is wishful thinking.

That's cute but that's not how we measure QBs in KC. Check downs is where it's at my chowder eating friend. And Alex Smith has dominated in check downs for over a decade. ;)

The Browns surrendered 66 sacks this year to Denver's 40.

Okay, that made me smile. I'll give you points for that.

Don't forget Chris Jones and Poe... I think interior pressure is as or more important against Brady than anything and Jones gives us that in a way we haven't had in recent years. NE seems to be protecting Brady pretty well though. How did they block against DEN?

I thought our DL would the deciding factor in last year's game and in a way, it was. They utterly failed us and no other group was able to pick up the slack. We missed some INTs and had the fumble by Davis go against us as well. If the DL can pressure Brady this time then maybe things turn out our way. I've seen the DL play really well this year and play like they don't really care. I've got the feeling Houston just won't be a factor in the playoffs again so our other guys need to step up big time.
