Titans are paying $82 million to learn what Steelers already knew

The Steelers have their own issues at left tackle, but at least they seem more promising than what Tennessee is facing.

Pittsburgh Steelers fans are going through familiar growing pains at left tackle. Broderick Jones got off to a terrible start in the season opener, allowing three sacks, including one on the Steelers' first play from scrimmage.

It wasn’t all bad from Jones, but the sum of his performance was far from good. Still, the former first-round pick has had a habit of starting slow and finishing strong in each of his first few seasons, plus he’s starting at left tackle on a full-time basis for the first time since his college days at Georgia.
