I agree. I dont think they can protect him. The big difference between Pittsburgh and Philly's d is that Pitt doesnt have to commit anything extra to stop the run...ever. Pitt can play nickel and still hold you to 3 yards a carry if necessary. You simply can't run on the steelers the way zona ran on philly today regardless of personnel grouping.
Once again, I was very impressed by how well Zona is playing the run. But they have to sell out and pray and thus far their secondary has either made the plays or they have gotten extremely lucky.
