It seems the various (inter)national sports news sources got it wrong. Mike Tomlin isn't letting Dick LeBeau go, he is keeping him. It doesn't say what type of defense they will employ directly but it does hit at keeping with the 3-4 zone blitzing craziness that has defined the Steelers for the past 15+ years. They've actually used a 3-4 scheme since 1983 or 84 according to something I've read previously.
My biggest issue with the possible change was my belief that if it isn't broke, don't fix it. In the past three seasons the Steelers have finished 1st, 4th, and 9th in total yards and 1st, 3rd, and 12th in points allowed. I would say that isn't broke.
