But we knew this about Bates..he had some struggles early on and I think the lack of a contract was in his mind.  No longer.  He will get paid and he is on a roll.

What I have seen from Bell is more impressive.  He was always a high-energy guy.  He could help in the running game, but from the middle of the last season until now, that guy has improved his COVERAGE ABILITY to an incredible level.  It took him a little time to adjust, but wow has he come on strong.

I will always love Bell for the hit that seemingly turned the tide against the steelers when he blew up JJSS.  

What these two are doing together is simply outstanding.
