Steelers re-sign Kirschke

It's not the signing that many wanted, but the Steelers have re-signed defensive end Travis Kirschke to a two-year deal.

On the surface, it seems like a lot of nothing. Kirschke's been little more than a backup for the Steelers over the years.

But he proved to still have something left in the tank last season replacing Aaron Smith in the final stretch – when he was far better than Nick Eason.

Do you want Kirschke starting?

Nope. But he's a capable guy when he's getting five to 10 snaps per game.

Means the 3-4 is staying.

Keisel ain't good enough to start in this league.

Not a bad signing on the cheap.

Is Tomlin; Dale, a 3-4 convert now?

Tomlin is playing to the strengths of this team.

Another gem from you Lolley.

Are you a politician?

Again no proper response.

Describe to me the 3-4 and 4-3 defenses Dale.

I'm through responding to you Keona.

Not true. I come here just to read Keona's posts, he's the greatest football mind in the land.

See Dale you don't know anything. I am through with your garbage crap.

It is that simple.

3-4 or 4-3 Dale? You wouldn't even know the difference crud.
