I don't read the local media very often; consequently I forget that there are some guys like Kiem that do a good job.

Don't watch that many Steelers games but in the few I saw don't recall any seeing the Pistol formation.
When KC ran it with Thigpen the Pistol was the bulk of there offense.
Another hint about the offense from Kiem:

8. By the way, Griffin ran a zone read on one play, though he handed the ball off to running back Roy Helu. Griffin did have one run up the middle.
