The Pittsburgh Steelers face the task of replacing a coaching legend and ending an era on the defensive side of the football.

Keith Butler is now the man in charge of Pittsburgh’s defense. After saying goodbye to longtime Steelers, Troy Polamalu, Ike Taylor and Brett Keisel, lots of work needs done in order to improve Pittsburgh’s defense. With being in the bottom half of the NFL, Butler has problems to resolve on a defense that ranked 18th in the NFL in total defense.
