Butler is a pretty good tackler from what I've seen. Better than I thought
Happy for dude

lengthy discussion on the radio yesterday about how to finish the season in terms of resting players and pushing for W's:
the term "rest" below as in, play who you need to play, but use them sparingly and sit em maybe in the final quarter....
- do you go all out to win the jets game, rest versus miami
- do you rest versus the jets, and semi rest versus miami (assumes you can handle miami easily)
- do you just go all about in both games
- do you rest and play it safe with both of these final two games
me personally, i want to go all out this weekend versus the jets. do what it takes to win. win that game, lock up homefield. then rest. that essentially gives you three weeks of rest heading into that first playoff game.
the only guy i would sit out this week is Jules. everyone else, get them in there and let's lock this **** up.

"Resting" key guys against the Jets would most likely come back to bit us in the *** imo if the backups can't take care of business. I agree with you,iIf all goes well on Sunday,there's gonna be plenty of time for rest between the Fins game and the bye.

im against the notion of resting guys for the Jets too . obviously if people arent healthy enough to play (amendola , hightower potentially , chung) then don't play them , but if guys are cleared to go the team needs to try and win this game

Pryor on Gronk for a full game will make a huge difference & Fitz is hot right now. should be a close game

possibly. although Butler usually draws the top WR, usually.
either way, more than happy with both dudes' play

Apparently Hankerson got cut to make room for Harper getting called back up today. They need as many people who know the playbook as possible against the Jets with Dola and Jules all out. Wouldn't be surprised if he got resigned next week.
Music to my damn ears,for all our worry during the preseason,the secondary hasn't been close to being one of the worst. Having arguably one of BB's deepest and most solid front 7's ever as a HC helps

it's almost like they're throwing this game on purpose.
I dunno the implications exactly but if the jets win it makes the steelers on the outside looking in no?
maybe that's something because I'd def rather play the jets than Pittsburgh who's now fully healthy with the exception of Bell...

Our D is looking pathetic right now
Making Fitz look elite
Or run defence has been shakey since Hightower went down smh
PLUS our former players are looking good against us
Ridley and thompkins

injuries is one thing. but we're just getting man handled, especially our defense. no gap control, no pressure on fitz, no nothing. it's like they know it's not a must win. if that's the deal, sit brady and gronk, please.
