Question about Eifert. Does it make sense to have him pass blocking on 3rd down & 8? They had him in the backfield on a particular 3rd down & 8 and he totally whiffed on his block. I was thinking they were doing the Steelers a huge favor by keeping him in the backfield on 3rd and fairly long. I have seen him lined up like that numerous times and he isn't the best blocker but he does the job sometimes. I just think he should be running a route in that situation. That is what he does best is catch passes. I guess he has to block sometimes but I want him doing what he is best at especially on 3rd down. Would the Patriots put Gronk in the backfield to pass block on 3rd & 8?
