Steelers SS Troy Polamalu Says Ability Of E.J. Manuel Make Bills Offense 'Flavor Of The Week'

Steelers safety Troy Polamalu dipped back into old vernacular Friday.

When speaking on Buffalo's offense under rookie quarterback E.J. Manuel, he mentioned the phrase coach Mike Tomlin used to describe the zone read option.

"Flavor of the week," as quoted by Tribune-Review reporter Alan Robinson.

"Anytime you have someone who can run and pass, it gives them flexibility with their play calling," Polamalu said, as quoted by Robinson. "We have to be aware of him scrambling."

86WARD's Take: This pretty much goes hand-in-hand with Tomlin's description of the read-option offense when he called it the "flavor of the month."

so, are they insulting the bills offensive scheme? That phrase is typically used in a degrading sense. but, of all teams to make fun of someone's offensive scheme, if the steelers are doing it, i find that hilarious. Glass houses.
