Franco was last week's winner. This week I'm concerned about the offense's ability against the best defense they have faced yet in the middle of a stretch of 6 quarters without a TD. I got a bad feeling about this one and I hope I'm wrong.

Defense actually shows a little more in the way of fundamentals and pride. That said, Ben has to pull a TD out of his *** with under a minute left to get a win
 
Steelers win


but this is a no confidence driven prediction that I hope for crave desire

but realize that more than likely probably won't come to pass (pun intended)

go Steelers !

Until they show something , gotta go with how they perform.

Tomlin is mailing it in. The players have no direction and a team captain has voiced concern over the practice routine.

Steelers are penalized for over 100 yards in this one.
 
I have seen what a rebuilding team looks like before.......but I think the Steelers have a shot here. There are going to be growing pains with a young team and unlike some I think the talent is there.

Carolina is not as good as they were last year. I'm not so sure we are either, but I think we have half a chance this week.
 
I don't like this game for the Steelers. Panthers have 2 very good RBs, a mobile QB and a very good defense.

Ben gets sacked a record 16 times, the defense shows why Auburn paid the big bucks for Cam and the Panthers win 38-10.

Just pessimistic blabbering but nowadays nothing surprises me.
 
so I should start Kelvin Benjamin?

This is after holding the Panthers scoreless in the first half. We will see how bad Mr Tomlin is at making adjustments and how a coach like Riverboat Ron provides his players with direction and leadership.

Not as much outside zone this week should help the run game.
Thiink we get a couple of sacks this week too.
Look for Wheaton and Brown to have a big night.

I've seen rebuilding as it was done with this team in the early 80's with aging veterans and sub-par rookies - but we still had a coach at the time. Now we have Tomlin. Cannot figure this team out at all but I'm going with Carolina 28 - 16
