That's why when the wildcard game is spoken of now, the blame goes to Burfict and Jones without a mention of the Steelers tactics. They've come out of it (even with the action of their coaches) clean as a whistle. Good work behind the scenes Rooney (and Pat Bowlen for getting Talib a fine of 26K for admitting to purposefully trying to break a guys neck). These are championship winning Owners and their ability to fight for their players reflects that no lose/championship attitude.
Owners have ZERO to do with who gets fined and/or suspended. Rooney could not help Harrison or Ben or any of a long list of Steelers keep getting suspended. Bowlen could not keep Talib from being suspended earlier this year.
