Steelers ILB Rotation Painting Much Clearer Picture

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a good problem at inside linebacker. Three talented players for two, and sometimes, one spot. How are they going to get Devin Bush, Mark Barron, and Vince Williams on the field? Sunday provided the answer.

Based on our charting, here is when all three played against the Tennessee Titans.

Devin Bush: 12 nickel, 7 dime, 6 base
Mark Barron: 12 nickel, 4 base
Vince Williams: 10 base

Pretty clear rotation here. Williams used strictly in their base 3-4, Barron and Bush the nickel pairing, with Bush remaining on the field in dime.
