The reason why Green will see time week one is his pass protection. It's something he has always done well and taken pride in. I say see time because even though he may start....I think slaton and/or Taylor see a fair bit of action, but Slaton is a rookie who has probably never been asked to do much blocking at any level. Pass pro. was a big issue for Taylor early on. It doesn't always get the pub, but with our history of high sack numbers and Scaub getting hurt it's something that I guarantee is on Kubiak's mind.

Pittsburgh should have a pretty good defense and they like to get after the QB. With the pressure the Cowboys were able to generate(so I've been told, still in Germany ) you can be sure they will have plenty of blitz packages ready.
