Since the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dick LeBeau parted ways www.steelerscheapshops.com , defensive coordinator Keith Butler has been saying the same thing since Day 1. This would be how he doesn’t like to rely on the blitz to get pressure on the quarterback. He would rather be able to do so by just sending four players, leaving seven back in coverage in the back end.What fans have found out throughout Butler’s tenure are this talk is more often just lip service.The Steelers are a team who loves to blitz, and does it with a high level of frequency. In fact, thanks to NFL Matchup on ESPN’s Twitter page, the Steelers blitz the quarterback on 30.1% of drop backs.Check the rankings for yourself:That is a lot of blitzing for a man who claims he doesn’t like to blitz. To be fair, sometimes you have to blitz out of necessity. For instance, there are times when the Steelers simply can’t get pressure with just their front four, so you have to send extra pass rushers to try and get to the quarterback.On top of this simple fact, the Steelers have some good blitzers on their defense. Vince Williams is a tremendous blitzer as an inside linebacker Pittsburgh Steelers T-Shirt , and Mike Hilton might be the best blitzing cornerback in the entire league. The blitzes have worked too. Heading into Week 7, the Steelers are second in the league with 22 sacks, trailing only the Baltimore Ravens with 26 thanks to their 11 sack day vs. the Titans in Week 6, and have received contributions from a handful of defenders.Here are the Steelers’ sack totals heading into the bye week, by player:T.J. Watt — 6Bud Dupree — 3Javon Hargrave — 3Jon Bostic — 2.5Cameron Heyward — 2.5Vince Williams — 1Stephon Tuitt — 1L.J. Fort — 1Anthony Chickillo — 1Daniel McCullers — 1Will the Steelers continue to blitz heavily? If it is working, absolutely. But the hope is Butler dials up his blitzes with more creativity, and intelligence. Sending safeties in this defense is not the smartest decision, and has left the secondary vulnerable on more than one occasion.Regardless, I doubt the blitz is going anywhere anytime soon in the Pittsburgh defensive repertoire. Although the Pittsburgh Steelers face the Carolina Panthers every year in the preseason Pittsburgh Steelers Hats , regular season meetings are quite rare as these teams are interconference opponents. The two sides have only played each other six times dating back to 1996, and after losing their first encounter, the Steelers have not lost to the Panthers since.Boasting a 6-2 record, Carolina has been one of the league’s more impressive teams this season. Behind the strong running of Christian McCaffery and the improved play of Cam Newton, the Panthers have been difficult to stop on offense and they represent a significant challenge for the Steelers on Thursday night. However, with the short week notably favoring the home team, Pittsburgh are well positioned to record their fifth consecutive win of the season in Week 10.As a nationally televised game, the broadcast should be available in all regions.Week 10:Game: Carolina Panthers (6-2) @ Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2-1).
