That was from legendary Steelers defensive coach Dick LeBeau who's 73.
The Steelers are known for their defense and zone blitz packaging. Since LeBeau (who was 12-33 as the Cincinnati Bengals head coach from 2000-2002) returned to run the Pittsburgh D in 2004, it has ranked first overall three times (measured as fewest yards allowed) while allowing the fewest points three times. In those seven years, statistically the Steelers have been in the top five six times and were ninth in the other one.
Great news going into the Superbowl. Only if Pouncey makes a surprise and comes back.
