He gave us the fan’s perspective of James Conner’s ascendance, the Steelers rebuilt defense, and how embarrassing it was to watch their team tie the Cleveland Browns. The last one is the bit that worries me. I can’t imagine a better way to motivate a team than to tell them early in a season that they are exactly as good as Cleveland. We have Hartman’s opinions on those subjects and more to get you ready for tonight’s game.Cat Scratch Reader: James Conner has kept y’all from missing Le’Veon Bell too much. Is the kid that skilled or is the Steelers’ offensive line having an all-time run blocking season?Behind the Steel Curtain: I would say it is definitely a combination of both. Conner has a burst, and other skill sets Color Rush Christian McCaffrey Jersey , Bell doesn’t have, but he has also shown he can do everything the Steelers asked Bell to do from a running and receiving perspective. On top of that, the Steelers’ offensive line has been playing out of their minds this season paving the way for Conner and keeping Ben Roethlisberger clean. CSR: Speaking of offensive lines, Bud Dupree is finally showing his potential to beat them and become a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks. What changed?BTSC: The hope is Dupree is a late bloomer in regards to his technique. When drafted out of Kentucky he was extremely rough around the edges, and actually never had an outside linebacker coach until he came to the Steelers. It has taken time, but Dupree is starting to look more competent each week Christian McCaffrey Jersey Boys , and less like a first round bust.CSR: The Steelers’ new look secondary seems to be pulling it all together. What weaknesses still exist for the Panthers to take advantage of?BTSC: Opposite Joe Haden is a black hole which has yet to be filled. Former first round pick Artie Burns was supposed to be the guy opposite Haden, but hasn’t played a defensive snap since being benched for tardiness to a walkthrough prior to the team’s Week 8 game vs. the Browns. In his stead has been Coty Sensabaugh. Sensabaugh has played well, but is the weak link on the back end of the secondary. Other than Sensabaugh, I would suggest targeting rookie safety Terrell Edmunds. He takes bad angles and is certainly a liability in coverage.CSR: How embarrassing was it for Steelers Nation to tie with the Browns?BTSC: It was more than embarrassing. Some would say humiliating. While the Browns, and their fans, rejoiced over not losing a game Cheap Christian McCaffrey Jersey , the Steelers viewed it as a loss. A big, fat L.CSR: What’s your prediction for tonight?BTSC: The Steelers are tough at home, despite their early season woes, and it is always difficult for the visiting team on Thursday Night Football. When looking up some stats on these two teams, it is uncanny how similar they are... in all aspects. Nonetheless, I like the Steelers at home vs. the Panthers. It should be a close game Custom Christian McCaffrey Jersey , and a high scoring contest. Steelers - 34Panthers - 26
