All of you guys are listing Coach Tomlin's weak points and forgetting the stregnths. Hell,....... he even has a god given name for his "SUPER" stregnth and that is not cliche but TOMLINISM(s). He is absolutely the best ever when it comes to .............

Not what I said at all in the OP. I said it's either gonna go really well or really poor. But I think its pretty clear that this team cannot lose a starter at Corner, FS, Tackle, Edge Rush, Running back and of course QB. Losing Tuitt or Heyward would not be good at all either, but at least there is a credible starter there. And we still don't know what they have at centre. How is that sounding Steve?

Couple things to remember here boys! Ben was not the same after he hurt his knee in the Cowboys game and it showed.
Fitchner s offense was extremely predictable and the latter part of the season bore that fact out.
Ben will come back healthy and hungry more than ever to get to the big game. Canada will have plenty of new wrinkles with motion, play action, utilizing the TE’s and RB’s in the pass game more, and maxing out Najee’s talents.
Im optimistic about this season and look for major offensive improvements.

I think most of it will come down to any blocking improvements and Najee Harris. If they can get some semblance of a run game, they can make the play action work again. I have some hope on that.

I'm with you steelhurt. Just a little bit will take that offense a long way. It will help make it so BEN doesn't have to cary the entire team and that will make him so much better. 600 throw last season isn't going to win anything this season. If he can get limited to 25-35 throws / game he will be deceptively good. In order for that to happen the run game needs to be established and Canada's play calling will help that as opposed to last years Coach Tomlin's friend.

They have to adopt the Broncos formula when Elway was playing his last years. Strong running game with Terrell Davis, didn’t ask John to sling the ball as in past years but limited his throws where he was deadly and efficient. And I might add they had a strong defense. Same when Peyton was a Bronco. Strong running game and tremendous defense but didn’t ask Peyton to carry the team like he had with the Colts. We can do that too. We have strong defense, good TE’s and beast at RB, good enough receivers, and Ben is more than just adequate to run this offense, just doesn’t need to put team on his back, simply play efficiently. We can do this and surprise a lot of so called experts.

Nope...you are already projecting injuries all over the damn field...why even go on a date if you think you have no chance?
you already projected your thoughts...all of Life can go pretty well or pretty poor. Every damn year football teams overachiever and underachieve ...
why don’t we just wait and simply settle this **** on the field, instead of everyone trying to tell me what the ***** going to happen?
It's football. Two or Three starters are lost for the season EVERY year. It's inevitable dude.

Randy fuknutz was just tooooo committed to the short pass look at the offense when Ben was out hurt… man it was bad! 2 and 3 yard dump offs just horrible. Canada has no where to go but up! Opening day lineup of Johnson claypool at wrs, juju in slot, freiermuth at te, Harris at rb and Ben at qb, pretty sweet! Hard to imagine someone not open downfield! Ben is a master at using tools around him… remember the start Wallace got off to… we need to give Canada the benefit of doubt and go “all in for Ben” he’s given years of stable qb play those of us that suffered though the qb drought years can appreciate what Ben has done for us… once more into the breech boys n girlz! go Steelers
