And that's why he's so good because he doesn't just show up on Sundays and play because it would be impossible.
He does it every single day in practice.
And you're seeing the young fellas now follow suit.
Well, I think, first of all, you have to establish the running game.
And there's no question about it.
And I know there hasn't been an emphasis for them.
They've run effectively.
They ran the ball for almost five yards of carry against the Ravens last week.
But they have to be able to establish the run.
If they think they're going to throw the ball two to one, pass to run, they're going to get annihilated.
Because these guys are going to pin their ears back.
They're going to come off the ball, Will Anderson Jr.
and Daniel Hunter.
I mean, these two are legitimate bona fide pass rushers, as rush guys.
And so if you don't get them on their heels a little bit and you take the fight to them, they're going to crush Aaron Rodgers.
And so to me, you've got to get these offensive linemen leaning heavy, coming off the ball, stealing some of the grass of the Texans, and establish that physical game, kind of like they did at times in the Ravens game.
Not as much as I'd like, but at times.
Well, listen, I think that the Steelers, if they play like they played against the Ravens,
if they played physical like the Ravens, they're going to have no problem controlling this Texans offensive line.
They're not known as a running team.
