He reminds me of the recovering alcoholic who had no confidence in the movie "Hoosiers." Joey Porter intervened in our playoff loss to Pittsburgh and cost us the game. Don't think he didn't study and know what his last ditch effort could be in causing a Bengals defense meltdown? They won the game, he paid a very small fine which was probably reimbursed from the team. Good Lord man! Pittsburg is relentless and I tell you they study all aspects of the competition. You think they just watch game film of players all week? They know our weak spots and how to exploit them.

This is part of the Rooney tradition.   He's not just competitive, he's smart and thinks outside the box.  And when things get tough the Steelers step it up.

The good teams are smart and mentally tough.   They get tougher and smarter as the game goes along.  That's what I want to see.  It's one of the reasons I don't think we should get rid of Erickson.  He's smart and mentally tough.  Minter also sounds like that kind of player.  The more of these guys we have the better.
