Post A disciple of Bruce Arians is now in charge of the Arizona
Whether Byron Leftwich can awaken that slumbering unit remains to be seen.But Arians' influence is undeniable.After a lot of lobbying Youth Le'Veon Bell Jersey , Arians talked Leftwich into taking a job as a coaching intern two seasons ago. Last year, he promoted Leftwich to quarterbacks coach.When Arians retired as Cardinals head coach after last season and Steve Wilks was hired, Leftwich stayed on as quarterbacks coach. And when Wilks fired Mike McCoy last week, Leftwich was promoted to offensive coordinator."B.A., he's the reason I'm here," Leftwich said Thursday in his first meeting with reporters since getting the new job. "It was just special that he gave me this opportunity. He's been trying to get me to do it forever and he gave me the opportunity and once I saw it I fell in love with it."He knew the way I cared about football. He knew how much time and energy I put into this thing. I'm glad he got me into this thing because I love every minute of it right now."Rookie quarterback Josh Rosen sees the Arians influence."Byron is sort of a B.A. descendent, and he (Arians) is sort of a ghostly legend in this building here," Rosen said. "I think he's putting in some new stuff but also pulling on some past knowledge. I am looking forward to what we are about to do with him."Leftwich, like Rosen http://www.authenticspittsburghsteelers.com/cheap-jesse-james-jersey , was a first-round draft pick at quarterback, chosen seventh overall out of Marshall by Jacksonville in 2003. He played 10 seasons in the NFL, the last three with Pittsburgh. Arians was the Steelers' offensive coordinator for two of those seasons, and they developed a bond that continues to this day.When he finally convinced Leftwich to take a coaching job, Arians let him call plays last year for a pair of preseason games."He was outstanding," Arians said in an interview on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM. "He was always a play ahead. You could tell he was a quarterback and a really, really smart one. He had such a great rapport in that room. I know Carson Palmer leaned on him heavily."Leftwich inherits an offense that ranks last in the NFL in total yards and yards rushing and next-to-last in yards passing. Just what alterations he can make for Sunday's game against San Francisco is uncertain."It's tough to change a lot in a week but there is things that we can do," Leftwich said. "It's not really about doing a bunch of different stuff. It's about getting these guys. It's about Josh, it's about the growth of Josh but it's about the other 10 guys also. We've just got to play better and we've got to practice better."His main focus is the development of Rosen."I mean he's a young quarterback. This kid's 21 years old. This is the National Football League http://www.authenticspittsburghsteelers.com/cheap-stephon-tuitt-jersey ," Leftwich said. "I've been there. I know what he's going through. I know what he's thinking. We're just trying to get him there, get him there as quickly as possible, getting him there as safe as possible and just teach him the things that he's going to need to play consistently for a long time in this league."Leftwich said his playing career mirrored that of Rosen in the early years."I really like this kid," he said. "I think this kid can really play football."Leftwich is Rosen's fifth offensive coordinator in the past four years."It's not fun. If I could prefer it, I would have one offense, but that's not really how it all worked out," Rosen said. "So, I'm just going to do the best I can with what I've got."But Leftwich said he's not throwing a lot of new material at Rosen."I'm not changing this thing up," he said. "I'm not going to put this kid in a situation where he's out there and doesn't have an understanding of what he's doing. I'm just trying to give him a better understanding of what he's doing Youth Antonio Brown Jersey , just put him in better positions so he can have a lot of success in this league."Arians, in his radio interview, had one prediction for the Leftwich offense."One thing I'll bet," Arians said. "It's a very teachable game plan and the guys will know exactly what's expected of them."Predicting the Steelers Week 1 Inactive List vs. the Browns Making the 53 man roster is the first step. But only 46 players can dress for the game. Here are several players that could be one of the seven players on the inactive list.Obrazek
Definitely:TE Vance McDonald - after being limited in practice on Wednesday, McDonald failed to return to the field on Thursday or Friday. He is the only Steeler that has already been ruled out for the game.Most Likely:QB Mason Rudolph - The Steelers have their third quarterback inactive unless there are already seven players out due to injury. Rudolph will be that guy until he moves up the depth chart.OT Zach Banner - The Steelers could dress eight offensive linemen. But they definitely won’t dress nine and Banner is the bottom man on the totem pole.S Marcus Allen - With six safeties going along with five corners, they can’t all dress for the game. And the fifth-round rookie is the most-likely candidate to be left out for now.NT Dan McCullers - It’s hard to carry another nose tackle on game day when the position is only used around 30% of the time on defense. Dan sits unless he can unseat Javon Hargrave as the starter.Possibly:OL Matt Feiler or Chuks Okorafor - Seven is a safer bet for the number of linemen the Steelers will dress. If Feiler could prove his versatility to play tackle, Chuks might not get a helmet until he gets more experience.WR Justin Hunter or James Washington - Carrying six receivers on game day would be a luxury, but Switzer may not be ready at receiver and just return kicks. Hunter doesn’t bring any special teams value and Washington missed time in the preseason which could hinder his readiness.LB Matthew Thomas or L.J. Fort - A fifth ILB could be left out. With only three outside backers on the roster and a lot of special teams value, this is a position where dressing everyone could be justified.DB Jordan Dangerfield or Coty Sensabaugh - Ten DBs seems like a lot for game day. The Steelers may need to carry that many if they’re planning on using their new dollar defense. If not Black James Conner Jersey , it comes down to if they want the extra corner or safety.Safe Positions:RB - All three are needed to share the workload without Bell.FB - Roosevelt Nix is all they’ve got, plus he’s a special teams stud.TE - With McDonald out, the other two are in demand. OLB - It’s questionable if the three that they have are enough.Specialists - They are the only ones that do what they do.Projected Inactive List:Vance McDonaldMason Rudolph Zach Banner Marcus AllenDaniel McCullersMatt Feiler Justin HunterI originally had Sensabaugh at number seven, but with the weather looking to be a big factor in the game, having an additional receiver might not help a game plan where passing could be at a minimum.Feel free to list your projected inactives in the comments below. www.nflshopoutlet.com/detroit-lions
