I notice a lot of people have been pretty hard on our D-Line over the course of this thread. The funny thing is the D-Line is playing pretty good themselves and deserve a good part of the credit for our fourth ranked defnese. The problem is getting pressure against teams not named the Steelers, but still they contantly are able to knock down passes and teams generally don't enjoy running against them, even Andre Carter who plays his ass off against the run. In fact I 'd go so far to say that Andre Carter is a pretty good run stuffer it's just that when he focuses on playing the run he losses some of his ability to get after the QB.
