    It was not giving up 8 sacks to the Browns and it protected Big Ben well enough to win against a very good Ravens defense three times.

    It just gave up 9 to the eagles, 5 to the titans (without haynesworth), 4 to the Chargers (without merriman) and ran for a respectable 3.7 ypc.
    This is the attitude the steelers took into the offseason and they're paying for it now.

    looking at the highlights on nfl.com it looked like 3 were on Ben. Chris Kemoeatu sucks.

    The O-line is just a small problem. The real problems are the play calling, lack of a full back, special teams, and weak backups on defense. We looked like the damned Eagles out there. Pass, pass, pass in -6 with swirling winds. Duh! Out of all of the 3rd downs last night only 2 were not shotgun and several had no RB in just in case of a blitz. 3rd and 1 shotgun, 3rd and 2 shotgun and naked most of the time. I saw the blitz coming several times and I'm watching it on tv. 35 pass plays to 19 run plays. Our OC has got to go. The defense is not dominant like last year but all the offense needs is another FG here or there and were sitting pretty.

    They can't run the football. That is an O line problem and a big one.

    The oline needs work no doubt but when you are constantly running out of single back sets with no FB to take on the linebacker it becomes pretty obvious.
