But on the flip side how about this one: Since 2017 DDC took 2,236 snaps and only allowed 2 sacks. I mean, DeCastro was never really a road grader. He was a pretty balanced blocker his entire football career. Our entire line declined after we lost Munchack. Id kill to have him back.

MWil23 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 The Steelers are going to have 4 new starters on the OL. While I realize they sucked at run blocking, that’s still a lot of new pieces. Sometimes a unit gels, but that’s still a lot to address in an off-season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I can't claim I saw this coming, but it does not shock me. It's like the Chiefs releasing Schwartz and Fisher last February. The medical history is everything you need to know. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did draft Kendrick Green in the 3rd round tho. Ding ding ding, they could have used their first round pick on a stud OT then had Chuba Hubbard or Trey Sirmon later in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KManX89 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Their OL was already porous before this, but now? Big Ben will be lucky to make it out of there alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSURacerDT55 Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Steelers hate aside, Ben doesn't deserve to go out like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all concerned about the pass blocking, but we know an OL overhaul was coming....just not this fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even backups played decent under him. Since then, our line has declined. This year, it could be scary bad. Our run blocking cant really get worse, but our pass blocking can....and probably will.

I remember some Steelers fans (not you - and some not necessarily even on this forum) acted like losing Munchak wasn't that big of a deal at the time. An elite OL coach is a very underrated thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August4th Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 I wish Muchacks daughters planted thier roots in Pittsburgh/east coast and not Denver and LA smh I think ben will be fine because he will get the ball out fast like he did last yr. its our receiving core I'm more worried about taking massive hits in the middle of the field like Juju vs cincy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I felt that was a huge loss at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
