Keeanu Benton has been the focus of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense and not for favorable reasons. The nose tackle of a leaky run defense, Benton’s received rightful criticism for struggling to take on blockers and free up linebackers. The hot button question is if – or when – someone else eats into his snap count. Yahya Black is the popular name, 330 pounds, and impressive since Day One. Veteran Daniel Ekuale is a capable plugger, holding his own in Sunday’s win over the New England Patriots. Those questions and replacements are valid, but they miss a bigger point.
