Jordan Berry Jersey , including scheduling and the draft."Compiling statistics can take hours upon hours in order to find the proper numbers. To save you the trouble, here are some of the best statistics about the Steelers from the past week. I will begin with a few statistics of my own before going on to other various Steeler sources. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @STLRSuperFanDad in order to get some of BTSC’s geekiest stats. Here is a highlight of the past several “Stat Geek” segments from the Steelers Preview Podcast:Ben Roethlisberger (216) is only four games away from tying in Mike Webster (220) for the most games played as a Steeler. Currently Hines Ward is second at 217 games.The last first round draft pick of the Steelers who was coming off of their senior year of college was Bud Dupree in 2015. Of Kevin Colbert’s 20 first round draft picks since 2000, 13 have been underclassmen.Benny Snell Jr is the first running back drafted in the fourth round by the Steelers in the Kevin Colbert era. No wide receiver has been drafted in the fifth round under Colbert.The only players drafted by the Steelers who are currently on the roster and have appeared in every game since being drafted are Terrell Edmunds (2018) and Artie Burns (2016).The most distant Steelers draft where more than one player is still on the roster is 2014 with Ryan Shazier (PUP), Stephon Tuitt, and Daniel McCullers.The oldest first round draft pick of the Steelers in the Kevin Colbert era was Casey Hampton in 2001 who was 24 years old at the time of the draft.The highest drafted punter in Steelers history was Craig Colquitt in 1978 chosen in round 3 pick 76.Now on to some other Steelers stats over the past several weeks:Steelers vs. Ravens: 3 Steelers players who need to have big games to win Sunday night What can be said about the rivalry between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens that hasn’t already been said. There’s a sense of both respect and dislike between the two fan bases. It may not be the longest-tenured rivalry but, in my opinion, it’s one of the purest in all of football. Dating back to September 8 David DeCastro Jersey , 1996, the two teams have played a total of 48 games with Pittsburgh holding a 27-21 advantage. They’ve met in the playoffs four times with Pittsburgh holding a 3-1 edge in those matchups. This is a huge game for both teams, each trying to establish dominance in the AFC North, and I don’t see why this won’t be one of those epic battles to which we’ve grown accustomed. The Steelers will need solid games from everyone to be successful, but I’ll give you three players who need to shine if we want to see Pittsburgh walk away with early bragging rights. Chris BoswellAs of late, The Wizard of Boz has been anything but magical. Our normally-accurate kicker has missed three out of four attempts on the year, and the most alarming of his seasonal stats are the two extra points missed. To say he’s in a funk is an understatement Chukwuma Okorafor Jersey , and he needs to get this case of the shanks worked out before Sunday night, In the teams’ previous 48 meetings, 20 have been decided by three points or less. Dating back to 2009, 12 of the last 20 have been decided by three points or fewer. We know they have a great kicker in Justin Tucker — the question is, will ours come out of hibernation?Cameron Heyward It’s time for our stud D-lineman to break out and have a great game. Heyward, who’s coming off of an incredible 2017 season, has only one sack to his credit and doesn’t seem to be as disruptive this year. He’s totaled 11 tackles with only two TFLs. In 2017 Ramon Foster Jersey , Heyward had 17 of those. It’s still early in the season, and stats don’t tell the whole story, but I would love for No. 97 to give fans a signature game on Sunday night. In the last meeting with Baltimore,Alex Collins gashed the Steelers early and often, and I have no idea as to why they stopped using him in that game. His stat line: 18 attempts 120 yards 6.7 avgalso had 2 catches for 46 yards. Looking back at the earlier meeting, he had 9 carries for 81 yards for a unhealthy 9 yards a carry. Needless to say, he’s had some success against the Black-and-gold. The Defensive Captain needs to lead by example. James ConnerThis isn’t to say that Conner hasn’t been doing work. It’s more of an acknowledgement that Vince Williams Jersey , as a team, the Steelers need some balance on offense. Baltimore has had a way of making it tough sledding for our backs. This certainly depends on our O-line, but Conner will need to get tough yards in this matchup and prove he can be disruptive. These are tough and physical games between arch-rivals, and this is Conner’s first start as the feature back. Sometimes it’s not just the total stat line, but more a case of simply bringing it against these guys. Let me know what you think in the comment section.HERE WE GO STEELERS!
