As 610AM in KC is correct: Todd Haley is the Steelers new offensive coordinator, sources confirmed.

Questa proprio non me la sarei aspettata, mai e poi mai. I casi sono due, o il nostro attac..passing game esplode definitivamente o Haley e Ben vengono alle mani prima della fine della stagione.

Mah, mossa abbastanza strana e non certamente ciò a cui eravamo abituati.

Di sicuro oggi Haley è una persona felicissima.
Al momento non riesco a pensar male del figlio di uno dei principali artecifici del "best draft ever".

Vabbè quindi? Devo essere contento, preoccupato, boh...non ho strumenti per giudicare

edit: riporto un retweet da SteelersDepot Was told that Ben Roethlisber was never notified about the Steelers intentions of hiring Todd Haley until it was a done deal.

Non so che pensare, ma questa situazione comincia a non piacermi per niente

According to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Ben Roethlisberger wasn't notified of the Steelers' hiring of new OC Todd Haley "until it was a done deal."

Non vorrà dire niente, giusto così, per curiosità...

Intanto W. Saunders dovrà saltare le prime 4 della prossima stagione perchè ha assunto qualcosa di non consentito.
Mi dispiacerebbe per quello che ha lasciato intravvedere, ma può anche darsi che lo seghino a questo punto.

PS: Ah l'avrete letto tutti, ma ancora nessuno l'ha riportato...abbiamo altri due Steelers nella Hall of Fame di Canton, cioè Jack Butler e Dermontti Dawson. Dirty me lo ricordo benissimo, era il centro di una squadra che sarebbe piaciuta anche a chi non ha avuto occasione di vederla, una delle ultime versioni di puro Pittsburgh Style :truzzo:
Il fatto che lui sia entrato abbastanza presto, pur senza argenteria, secondo me dimostra quanto fosse realmente speciale.

l'avevo riportato appena sopra; la lettura di quel tweet mi ha leggermente turbato

Non so se avete letto le parole di Kurt Warner...praticamente Haley è un cagacazzi, uno che ti sta addosso e ti urla in faccia se fai cazzate: se riesci a non prenderla sul personale, ti porta a migliorare :icon_paper:

Ron Cook invece è convinto che ci attende un futuro radioso :icon_paper:

Omar Khan :notworthy: comincia a muoversi:

The Pittsburgh Steelers cleared $6.56 million of salary cap space by renegotiating the contract of outside linebacker LaMarr Woodley, a league source confirmed on Tuesday.

....

In 2012, Woodley was due a $3.4 million base salary and had a $5.5 million roster bonus due on the 5th day of the 2012 league year for a cap number of $11.5 million.

On Monday, Woodley agreed to a restructure that lowered his base salary to $700,000. The remaining $2.7 million in base salary was combined with his $5.5 million roster bonus and converted into an $8.2 million signing bonus, which will be prorated over the remaining five seasons of Woodley's contract.

Woodley's cap number in 2012 is now $4.94 million.

Woodley's base salaries in 2013-16 were unchanged, but $1.64 million was added to each year's cap number.


Molto molto bene (cit.)

Altri candidati per un'operazione del genere: Ben, Troy, Harrison e Timmons.
Penso abbiano in mente di ristrutturare PRIMA per vedere quanto riescono a scendere e POI, in base a quello, decideranno se e quanti tagliarne...chiaramente i dubbi sui tagli riguardano i grandi vecchi (Farrior, Hines, Hampton) non certo i vari Kemoeatu e McFadden :icon_paper:

Dopo le prime ristrutturazioni si parte con i tagli. McFadden e Battle sono i primi a salutarci. E così salviamo circa altri $3.54 M sul cap 2012.

Ottimo, dieci milioni cassati in un amen; dovremmo già essere sotto i 140. Si può fare!!

The St. Louis Rams have requested permission to interview Steelers director of administration Omar Khan for their general manager job, sources told the Tribune-Review today.
Qua deve intervenire il vecchio e bloccare tutto sul nascere!!! :stressato:

Il Post, nell'articolo che riporta il tentativo di ratto del Khan ad opera dei Rams, afferma che anche Timmons avrebbe ristrutturato...solo non fornisce cifre.

Comunque stamattina, leggendo il forum di Steeler Nation, ho trovato un post del sempre ottimo TMC sull'argomento "si può fare":
I realize we need more room. I am not stating we do not. But, remember a couple weeks ago when people were running all over this site talking about how the Steelers would be gutted to get under the salary cap? They have trimmed $10M and restructured 1 deal while dumping two guys that did not even get to step inside the white lines for half a season.

If Hines Ward restructures, they can open another $3.685M. They can restructure Ben and save $7.5M easily. Timmons has a roster bonus of $4.4M and salary of $2.625M. That is $7M. They can turn that to signing bonus and save $5.6M. Those three alone would open $16.8M more in room and voilà, they are under the cap with some wiggle room and have not cut anyone else.

That is why I stated they could manage it. They have the players signed, can make some moves over time and massage their way out of the cap situation. It is not the gloom and doom many stated.

It just isn't. And, what if the cap actually does what I think it could and come in over $130M. Then what? They have all the room they need to sign Wallace and work with the RFAs and draft picks. It won't be the bloodbath everyone thought it will be UNLESS the Steelers FO simply decides to shed salaries of older players.

I think they should. I think Aaron Smith, Farrior, and potentially even Hampton should be viewed as players that should and could be released. They have been great for this organization but the cost has out paced the production and, at some point, you have to move forward. Those three alone are right at $11M in savings.

Working 2 more deals, 1 salary reduction, and three cuts gets you $27M in space.

Then, you have Foote to play LILB until someone takes the job. You need a couple NTs. You have the OL returning (good or bad) and have some room to make some purchases.
