Went back and watched the Steelers game...to my eyes that was definitely Ced's best game. He was playing well at times and not even 'playing well for Ced' ..just looked a lot more comfortable and winning some battles.
He actually looked aggressive for the first time and was finishing blocks ..saw him actually getting some drive on his straight ahead run blocking too.
The bull rush is still his big Achilles heel though which scares me. Watt simply picked him up and drove him back a couple of times..when you really need your LT to prove himself on 3rd & long - no help - he's still a weak link.
I am looking forward to watching him till the end of the season to see if this is a blip or longer term progress. We need to add quality in the OLine all over...but if we can avoid reaching for an OT as a panic measure that helps
