Not without a consistant pass rush. Hali, Houston, entire starting D-line were nearly invisible again........

Gates is one of the best receiving TEs of all time and quite possibly a HOFer. Berry is essentially a sophomore player, recovering from a devastating injury, that was left completely alone to cover him in the middle of the field. Go back and watch that first drive. There literally wasn't another player within 10 feet of them on any given play. He would have done that to Ed Reed and Troy Polamalu as well.

Exactly. You think the Steelers would put Polamalu on an island w/Gates? HELL NO.

And once again, Berry's coming off a torn ACL. He's not 100% physically or mentally yet. He'll continue to get better as the season goes on, just like he did his rookie year. He and Moeaki are not back yet, why is this surprising? Its known that it takes 2 years to fully recover, we shouldn't have expected 2010 Berry or Moeaki....Charles is just a freak.

It shouldn't have taken a defensive coordinator like Romeo more than a play or two to see Berry was in way over his head, so why the **** wasn't there an adjustment made to correct the problem right then and there? :banghead:

I'd put any amount of money on him becoming a bigtime difference maker there because it caters to his strengths. The way he is being used now is terrible.

True Fan's need to shut their worthless cockholsters.
