See, I think Meco and now yourself have focused on the title rather than the content.

I'm not saying that Bowles is the one all controlling change we've had. However, he has made an impact, but so has adding some competent linebackers and having an offseason to implement the ideas.

Good post Marky, sorry for the long rant.


I ranted because I knew there were people reading your post with that mentality. I wasn't aiming the rant toward you!

Should Graham be getting more snaps?

Yes is the short answer (just like his arms). He's had a fire lit under him this season

Laughing Yeah he has gotten some noticeable pressure on QB's, but like the rest of our guys for the most part, can't get them to the ground with the football still in hand. He did take Hunt's spot as the back-up LDE, so he is catching the coaching staff's eye. He better btw, because his roster spot could be in serious jeopardy past this season if he fails to produce tangible results.

Hunt, Curry and Graham are the future.

Graham played I believe zero snaps on Steelers last drive, and he was the one who had gotten the best pressure on Ben the entire day.

I think it's about time, we put a DE inside on 3rd and long.
