And yes the refs better start calling the holds starting game one. Orakpo has had every inch of his jersey clinched in a blockers fist by now...sometimes it's blatantly obvious the blocker doesn't even intend to let go for fear his QB gets sidelined for the season. Anyway we should win the "penalty" battle every single game this year or our offense is big pile of mess.

Actually that's a pretty good point. From what I've seen so far, Orakpo with his hand in the dirt seems to make o-linemen.......
nervous. Later in the second half Pittsburgh had a RB help the OT block him. With AH in there drawing double teams and special attention having to be paid to Orakpo, there's bound to be some confusion at times on the o-line. That combined with the holding penalties makes us that much better.
