Merril Hoge Says He’s Never Seen ‘One Guy’ Change An O-Line Like Broderick Jones Has

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a surprising decision two weeks ago, inserting rookie offensive tackle Broderick Jones into the lineup on a short week, and at right tackle, against the Tennessee Titans, giving him his first real look at the position.

To Jones’ credit, he played very well. That continued on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers as Jones was a key part of the Steelers’ offensive line opening up some monster rushing lanes in the 23-19 win over the Packers as the Steelers rushed for 205 yards.

Since Jones was inserted into the lineup, the Steelers’ offense has felt different.
