"different", as in, different numbers on the jerseys? That's likely to be the only difference

It really can't be much worse. I already expect our opponent to score 7 every time they get the ball.
 
Berhe stank in preseason, showed that he runs like an old lady, and deservedly got cut.

Last week this "special teams ace" gave Tampa 15 yards in field position with a needless facemask penalty, when three other Steelers were ready to jump on the Bucs' kick returner on the 15 yard line.

Now he's going to get reps with an already vulnerable defense.

Great.
 
Stop wasting draft picks on defense

5 WIDE!!! *******

LOL...yeah...me also..

It took me some time to figure out who Thomas was too!

I hope his play Sunday night will make me remember him for all the right reasons...
 
start Edmunds he cant be worse than Buhre or Jordan at SS, he is the fastest S and gives is the best chance vs these quicker TE's

Thomas has to play this week to limit one of their TWO receiving TEs.

Will our coaching staff allow that and if so, will our defensive scheme be of that nature............. Legitamite questions due to the history of this "D" this year.


I hope so


Salute the nation

I read an article that he is getting first team snaps in practice, so that is a good sign.
 
Sadly, I'd rather see Shamarko Thomas on the field with our D than Behre. That guy is useless getting snaps with the D, but then again frequently half our guys are useless on D so he may fit the system (give up 7 every drive unless luck hands ya a turnover).

**** can't get much worse on this D so maybe Behre's stank won't even stick out in the overall stank cloud hovering this D.

Good news is only a NT, playmaking MLB, pass rush OLB, lockdown corner, ball hawk safety or 2 away from having a good unit.

Spike hit the nail on the head, why even waste draft picks on D.

Now our offensive line is getting thin because of all the Jarvis Dupree, Artie Edmunds 1st rd picks - stick to O, they still can draft offense.
 
God, I hope V. MacDonald shows up tonight he could be a big difference maker tonight. I don't expect much from the D, Hail Mary Joe will probably throw for 500 tonight.

Their WR's IMO aren't all that. And who has their D really faced? Bills, Broncos and Bungles -aren't exactly high powered offenses. Oh that vaunted rat D!

We'll see come tonight just how impressive they are going against the number 2 rated O before Thursdays game.
