Often seeming to have one of his better games when he faced the Pittsburgh Steelers, Ngata was a thorn in their side for the much of his nine years in Baltimore and his trade to Detroit Lions in 2015 was likely to have been seen as something of blessing by the Steelers offensive line. When speaking to the media during his retirement press conference, it perhaps should come as no surprise to learn that the highlights of his career came against Pittsburgh, a tackle that would sum up the very essence of what it means to be a Raven. Asked about his favorite play Justin Layne Jersey 2019 , Ngata would single out an illegal hit on Ben Roethlisberger that resulted in a broken nose and a $15,000 fine. The hit would come during a 2010 meeting in Baltimore, a contest ultimately won by the Steelers by a score of 13-10. Inexplicably, a penalty was not called on the play at the time and Ngata would be credited half a sack for blatantly punching Roethlisberger in the face. Those who remember the game will probably also remember screaming at the officials about an obvious missed call. While Roethlisberger would ultimately require surgery, he would not missing any playing time beyond sitting out a handful of plays in that Week 13 game. The two teams would meet for a third time in the playoffs later that year, a game the Steelers would win on route to an eighth Super Bowl appearance. Teryl Austin joined the Pittsburgh Steelers coaching staff on January 11 to be the senior defensive assistant/secondary. Austin brings an abundance of NFL secondary and defensive experience with his 15 years of coaching in the NFL. Not only does Austin come with a vast amount of secondary experience, he also has spent time as a defensive coordinator. Austin has a mixed bag of success that can be seen below with his resume.

(Relieved of DC duties on On November 12. The Bengals finished last against the pass and gave up 32 touchdowns.)The above resume is painted with a wide brush that does not give the full picture of Austin’s success or lack thereof. Besides the stellar 2011 season, he never had a top 10 secondary. Is that because of his lack of coaching ability or the lack of talent associated with the team? A bright spot that is not listed above is the progression of Detroit Lions cornerback Darius Slay.The Lions drafted Slay with the 36 overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft. From 2014 to 2017 JuJu Smith-Schuster Jersey White , Slay earned a Pro Bowl and a first-team All-Pro selection in 2017. During that span, Slay had 69 pass deflections to go along with 14 interceptions.Austin will be tasked with molding a Steelers tenth ranked secondary in the NFL in pass yards surrendered, but a secondary that forced a mere six interceptions and four forced fumbles while surrendering 27 touchdowns.Can Austin get unheralded safety Sean Davis to go beyond the production he had in 2018? Terrell Edmunds’ second half of 2018 was leaps and bounds better than his first half, can Austin get the first rounder to live up to his pedigree? What can Austin do with former first rounder, Artie Burns or a young cornerback if the Steelers draft one? Will Austin be able to resurrect Joe Haden back to his 2014 Pro Bowl form?
