    Looking back at the boxscore of the steelers game make me say WOW. Zac Diles had 13 tackles and Demeco with 12, which leaves one linebacker out.......can anyone guess who?

    Thats right Marlon Greenwood ending up with a whopping 1 tackle and 0 assists, want to know where the guy is on that side. i can at least trip a guy during the course of a game. Just wondering if anyone else noticed? also 1 tacke....... Reeves!!! great job keep working hard!

    Tackles are not a good way to judge defensive performance. Most of those tackles by Ryans and Diles....were after 15 and 20 yard gains.

    And who is Marlon Greenwood?

    While that's true, both Ryans and Diles always seems to be around the play.

    Somebody has to make tackles on defense, It doesn't matter if it is 1 yard or 25 yards, the point is its the same guys. as much as the steelers ran the ball there is no excuse for a linebacker which side was hammered the whole game to only register one tacle after having over 100 last year

    Pretty much everyone besides Mario and Demeco are crap. Okoye is still young so he has an excuse. Weaver, Kalu, Greenwood, T Johnson, all CB's and all safties are just garbage.

    EDIT: Diles is young and has potential just like Okoye. Reeves as well. Bolden too.

    no what we need is a defense with some balls, demeco and mario need to freakin teach these guys how to have some balls and pride.
