BTSC Daily Six Pack - Tim Tebow's New Motion Edition
IX- Tim Tebow did a pre-combine interview talking about why he will not throw at the NFL combine and about his new throwing motion. Since he is arguably one of the biggest names in the draft, I thought this video was interview was definitely worth a listen. Many of you know I am one of the biggest Tebow haters, but after watching this video consider me partially impressed. Sadly, he does not throw any balls in the interview which makes me believe he still does not have it down. However, I am impressed with the knowledge he has developed and his display of how his new motion works.
X- As Blitz said, signing Casey Hampton to a long term deal ensures that the Steelers mean business and want to win now. "Grab a NT in the draft," was a common cry when people talked about how expensive Hampton's contract might be. However, that is not as simple as you might think. Take a minute to think about how many teams that run or are switching to a 3-4s and then count the number of good NTs. I have about 15+ teams and 7 good NTs with maybe 2 good ones in the draft. A good NT is called the "anchor" of a 3-4 for a reason. ESPN writer, Tim Graham, weighs in on the issue of NTs in the 3-4 and their high value. (BONUS: the article has a quote from LeCharles Bentley).
XIII- The NFL combine has been up and running for a couple of days. One of my favorite "tests" they do is the Wonderlic Personnel Test. If you have not heard of it, it is a 12 minute, 50 question quiz. Essentially, it is a really, really low-scale IQ test. On average the offensive linemen score the highest and halfbacks score the lowest. Ben Roethlisberger scored a 25, which I think is considered above average, even though its only 50%. Anyway, try this 20 question sample for yourself. 20 questions in 5 minutes, good luck!

XIV- My favorite "under the radar" Steeler, Charlie Batch, earned the honor of being inducted into Eastern Michigan's Athletic Hall of Fame. I've always had a soft spot for Chuck. He never complained about being second fiddle, when he had many opportunities to start in the NFL over the last few years. Instead, he sat by and helped develop our franchise QB and filled in when Ben was injured. The character of a player is sometimes just as important as his physical gifts. Chuck clearly has both and I've always been proud to call him a Steeler. Congratulations on the honor, Chuck.
XL- I am a bit light on news today, considering yesterday was a waterfall of good Steelers news. Therefore, this Lombardi in the six pack will be used to talk about Madden, which I know many of you are fanatics about. Did you know that the cover of the 2011 Madden will be decided by fan vote? That's right. You get to pick who you want cursed for the upcoming season. Choose between Drew Brees, Reggie Wayne, and Jared Allen. I say vote for Wayne, because the Colts are in the AFC.
XLIII- Mike Tomlin has about two years left on his contract. This is typically the time the Rooneys look to bring up a new contract. Here is what Rooney had to say when he was asked about Tomlin's contract for the future:
"I don’t like to speculate on what we’re going to do with the coach," team president Art Rooney II said, "but let’s just say we certainly hope and believe Mike’s going to be here for the long term and we’ll deal with contract situations as they come up."
I suppose, as a Steelers fan, this is really no surprise to anyone. A couple people think Tomlin still has to prove himself to earn his contract extension. However, I believe Tomlin has already done a phenomenal job and will be here for as long as he is willing to lead us.

Thanks for the info Johnny
I am like you about MT…go ahead and pay the man. The only thing he should have to prove is his consistency in the long term
Things can always be worse....
great six pack Johnny
took the Wonderlic and scored a 40 (4 wrong)
as for Madden choose Drew Brees. He had a great year and we need the curse to get him. We play them this season so any extra insurance is great…hahaha
Resign Mike, he earned his extension 1 SB ring and a playoff appereance in three years is great.. it sux we didnt make the playoffs this year, but it will benefit him to become a better coach and leader. He needs better coordinators and coaches around him
Curse the Colts!
Yeah, they’re in the AFC so we have to use any power we can to bring them down!
Got a 45 on the test! 2 wrong.
Certainly Tomlin should be around a long time. A 10 year deal sounds nice.
Great Six Pack
Even though I don’t drink
Tebow had great determination, as I said before if he doesn’t make it as a NFL QB it won’t be because the effort wasn’t there.
Snacks for every one, the next couple of years we need to get at least one more Lombardi, especially to distance us from the Cowboys and get Ben 3, then he could retire and be in the Hall of Fame – even though he won’t.
I got my eye on several people on the combine, mainly Myron Rolle and Rolando McClain. I wanna see how well McClain can run so I’m going to be looking at his shuttle times and 10/20/40 times. Myron Rolle I want to see how well he can catch so I’ll watch the 40 time for him and the position drill they do with the corners where they have to catch the ball.
I hope Chuck can be our QB Coach this year. No shannighans just have him coach and thats it.
I already voted for Wayne although that team could still make the playoffs without him in there I believe. Peyton is the real key to that offense, while Wayne is great it will be interesting to see how peyton would do if wayne did get hurt. Plus they are in the afc, one mroe team out of the race is good for me.
Three years, 2 playoff appearances 3-1 in the playoffs, over 30 wins as a coach in 3 years, and a super bowl win. I’d say tomlin could miss the playoffs next year and still have earned a contract extensions, those results just don’t happen with any coach. Whoever says he still has something to prove…. well I’m not going to even address that because we don’t wanna go there but lets just say they don’t know football.

won’t make it past San Fran at 13.
I can’t see the Steelers moving up in front of them to grab him either. I’m heartbroken about it, but it looks like Rolando won’t be wearing black and gold.
Something has been telling me for some time
that the Steelers are going to do everything they can to move up to #11. The way Colbert has been talking about the depth of the draft, the more it sounds unlikely. However, that could be a smokescreen, too. Here’s hoping. The more I read and see of McClain, the more I’m liking the guy in B&G.

Maybe I’m not reading enough, but you’re the first person that I’ve seen express that opinion. I’m no expert and probably shouldn’t be expressing an opinion on a wide reciever’s route, but I thought the one he ran was lousy. Then followed it up with a dropped touchdown pass on their last offensive play. I guess he was getting the curse out of the way early.

Great six-pack, Johnny.
I watched the Tebow interview and took a couple of things away from it:
I was impressed with his comment about how the fundamentals are the same, but different people teach them differently, and maybe the way somebody says something is what makes it click for you. It took me a lot of years to figure that out – he’s a smart kid. Or else I was a stupid one – but I would hate to think that lol…
I was seriously annoyed with the interviewers’ insistence that he show them the way he used to throw. When you’re working intensely to change your muscle memory, the less you can do it the old way, the better. That said, it seems to me that he should be able to change fairly quickly, because the trigger for the motion is going to be where he starts the ball. I would think that if he can make it automatic to bring the ball up instead of dropping it down, the rest of it will also be automatic pretty soon. And why the heck didn’t his college coach address that four years ago?
"You learn more in failure than you do in success." - Mike Tomlin
by Rebecca Rollett on Feb 26, 2010 11:53 AM EST reply actions
Because his college coaches job is to win
Not to develop NFL players. I am not sure if I blame him though, because he is simply a product of his environment. College football should be a place to develop, however so much pressure is put on winning games that coaches forget their priorities. These players are so young that they oft miss the negligence some coaches may display.

Yeah he is coaching to win
But doesn’t having a QB that has a normal throwing motion help you win at the college level?
Defenses are slower in college
So a slower throwing motion is not a big deal like it is in the NFL. In the NFL about half a second is too long.

Raiders fans are still bitter about the Immaculate interception.
Baltimore fans are still bitter about the Colts leaving.
Browns fans are still bitter about the Ravens winning after leaving Cleveland, and I suspect about being raised Browns fans.
Steelers fans are still bitter about Neil O’Donnel and his int’s. Also I’m bitter about Bettis always being hurt in the playoffs, we easily would have won two with a healthy Bettis in any 4 or 5 of those seasons.
Overall I found their post to be f laud, but as good an attempt as most I see. Heck, some of our threads Malor shows up and does the same stuff.
And seriously, if my team flopped in the Super Bowl because my WR’s that were supposed to be better than the Steelers couldn’t get yards or stay in bounds and with Alexander and that O-Line of ultimate doom couldn’t dominate posession and got beat by a less talented team whose QB set a record for the worst QB rating in a Super Bowl win? Yeah I’d be bitter, as amazing as that win was on our side, it sucked huge sweaty balls for them.

shutdown
1 or 2 pick 6s a year . 7 or 8 int. u might argue those numbers are high but there really not if ur on the steelers with tons of pass rush and blitzing.
I won't argue they're high...
I’ll argue they’re unrealistic. Do you know how low the percentage of players is that can do whay you’re looking for?
This year alone only 4 players had more than 7 int’s. Only two of which were CB’s. Two players took one to the house. Only one of those two players was a corner, he won defensive player of the year.(link)
Last year, five players got 7+ picks. Only one was a corner. (link)
Three seasons ago four players reached 7 picks, two got returned to the house by corners.
You’re not looking for a number one corner, you’re looking for a Hall of Fame CB. Be realistic, those players don’t grow on trees. By your definition of number one corner, there’s only one in the league, Charles Woodson.

Last time I checked the two best corners in the league were known for their ability to completely shadow (cover) the opposing WR, not for their ability to grab tons of picks.
The crazy thing is, his list diminishes even more if he wants a player who can consistently put up 5+ picks every year.

All these teams running a 3-4, it’s not going to last unless they can get the personnel. the 4-3 teams are going to be doing well till then, all those space eaters getting drafted while the slightly too small for NT ones do just fine in a 4-3 defense and come cheaper and in later rounds.
I hope this 3-4 fad dies quickly, having to draft DL high in the first round is something I don’t like to see.
Ya I agree, all it does is diminish from the pool of talented 3-4 players
Thereby almost ensuring that anyone who runs it WILL NOT have the personnel all around to support it.
We increased our offensive production by 1,000 yards but our points by only 3 touchdowns?

The 3-4 fad is going on 20-years and counting
I can remember when the Steelers were one of maybe 3 teams running it. Slowly but surely, teams continue to convert. Probably because of the success of the Steelers (copycat league). It seems like every year, another team is converting. Isn’t there another team this year that commited to convert? I know last year Green Bay converted and maybe 1 other team.
Still, I wouldn’t be completely surprised to see the Steelers switch back to 4-3 down the road for that exact reason. Pretty sure that’s a primary reason why they switched to the 3-4 in the first place.

It wasn’t that long ago it was just three. I have no problem with 3-5 teams running the 3-4, there is plenty of personnel for that. Once you get to 10 it gets hard, and right now we have almost half the league trying to run the 3-4. I’m starting to back off on my Steelers switch to 4-3 talk, because I think the lack of NT will cause teams to switch back.

Haha
I just saw a post on the Yahoo USA Hockey chat that said: “Ok USA scored, when do they kick the extra point?”

Apparently
Kiprisoff benched himself. Left after the 4th goal and went straight to the locker room. Someone better take his belt from him.

The man knows his geography!
I can’t imagine living that way. I have a hard enough time with shortened days for three months! March 15 can’t come soon enough for me!

We had a Finnish exchange student
from 50 miles N of the Arctic Circle when we lived in Santa Fe. She got horribly sun-burned the first time she went skiing – she had never skied in full sunlight…

I hope the U.S. can maintain its intensity
I almost wish it was a closer game. They are going to need to be as sharp as possible in the Gold medal game if the wanna beat Canada again. Assuming of course Canada doesn’t choke.

it's all going to come down to goal tending . . .
all these single-elimination tourneys are weighted by goal tending . . . take the current game . . . sucky goal tending (and, in this instance, crappy defense) have determined the game . . . i like the usa’s miller over canada’s broduer or luongo at this point . . . though it will still come down to who’s hotter . . . i was at a ducks/canucks playoff game in anaheim a few years ago where luongo made 50+ saves but lost in ot . . . giggy made a gazillion saves as well . . .
I got a 30
but I didn’t answer a few question, I ran out of time
