Five Burning Questionshttp://www.behindthesteelcurtain.com/2011/11/16/2565553/pittsburgh-steelers-news-bye-week-hines-ward-mike-tomlin
The
Steelers bye week has arrived at long last. 7-3 is a good place to be at the bye (although it would be better if two of those losses were not to the
Ravens.) Here are your 5 Bye Week Burning Questions:
1. The speculation is that
Hines Ward has fallen considerably on the depth chart. Yet he only needs 19 catches to reach 1000 career receptions, 30 more yards to reach 12,000, and five touchdowns to reach 90 career TD's. You are Mike Tomlin, do you take Ward's milestones into consideration in game planning and game-day decision making or do ignore them and make cold calculations solely aimed toward winning?
2.
Neal Coolong suggested that the Steelers were developing an unhealthy relationship with
Antonio Brown. Do you fear that Roethlisberger might start leaning too heavily on Brown because of his phenomenal pass catching ability?
3.
Troy Polamalu has never played so frequently and so closely to the line of scrimmage as he has done this year. What does this mean for the Steelers defense?
