Indeed. And it's really disturbing to me the reports that some of the coaches weren't coaching technique.

I heard a Steelers player talking on the radio a few years ago and he was talking about how a young player would be struggling and a coach would give them 1 or 2 cues. Like line up a foot more outside. Or do this with your hands. And bam it would really click for that player and they'd become a good player!

So it's hard to look at some of our guys that are underperforming and think they're terrible. IF they had better coaching, maybe they would be.

A guy like Sample was surely drafted too high. But he's graded fairly well for blocking on PFF. He had decent catch stats against Miami. Now, could he be sent down the seam and catch 20 yard passes from time to time? Hard to say. They don't use him that way. They use him like a 6th lineman and then sneak him out after he blocks for a 3 yard catch when no one covers him.
