The Kansas City Chiefs have looked near unstoppable through the first five weeks of the 2017 NFL season. They may be one of the teams with the least flashy style of play, but they slowly crank teams in, grind them up and spit them out. What is even more impressive than the 5-0 record is […]

We can survive but if they go in and don't even try the no huddle, I will be pissed. I know it is loud there but we are the only team with a good QB that, for some reason, has to totally change how they play on offense when they go on the road. I don't see that from any of the other top QB's.
 
Good article and I believe our “qualified dogs” can make it a game early. However, as recent history has shown, the other teams run game will pick up in the second half and annihilate our defense. They just don’t have the gas for 60 minutes of a steady run attack. Plus, the offense plan of run, run, pass, and punt under Haley doesn’t give the defense much time to rest. KC will probably accumulate 21 points in the second alone.

I see this being the week the team implodes. Fully! Players will be a bag of dicks to questioning reporters. Tomlin will be pressed to answer the hard questions and will show his inability to adjust to the game. His antidotes and aphorisms will expose his lack of true leadership as the team goes around him to attempt to save their season. That will be when the Steel Town Express will fully derail and crash.

Hope they prove wrong! Really do.

It's going to be scary when they lineup both Tyreek Hill and Kareem Hunt in the backfield.
 
I won't be surprised if we see the Steelers show up and make plays. But I've seen nothing from this team or Tomlin that says they will do anything other then look like ****.
 
I wish this was at PITTSBURGH but after last week I'm not so sure about that anymore. The STEELERS have a good shot at pulling this one off and handing the Chefs their first defeat. Andy has been known to not make adjustments either or design game plan not so tough. I think they will be ready play and heavy on the run thius MAKING James Harrison more valuable. We on the other hand need to mix it up more. **** this empty back field on short yardage and those gosh dang WR screens, **** that ****. Either power run and zI mean full back and "HEAVY" set. Tell bell to hit that hole like there is no tomorrow and if he can't with out hesitation,.........then a full dose of Conner & Watson? The play action will open up especially if our QB remembers to double pump. We can pass but we need their people pulled up a little towards the Line of scrimmage..........BAMMM




Salute the nation
 
If I am coaching this team, I come right out of the gate no huddle and stay there for at least the first three drives. then I switch up and take the air out either pounding the ball or quick dump offs to bell. switch, rinse and repeat in the second half. unless your scoring at will in the no huddle if that's happening crush their ******* throats..

Side note: I also would line Conner up as a full back in the running game and not only let him block but give him the damn ball sometimes.

Well, Conner did play some DE at Pitt and seemed to enjoy hitting people. And I second that I don't want to see an empty set, ever!
 
By Sunday night, we will either be

A). Sitting at 4-2 and looking / feeling great about knocking off the only undefeated team and probably the NFL's best team at this point.

B). Sitting at 3-3 with the board and all of Steeler Nation imploding and waiting for the world to end.

I think it's gonna be a great game and we fall into category A.

I think last week was the implosion. 5 picks and putting a rookie in fournette in the hall of fame for youngest player ever with a 90 yard run? That has to be rock bottom?
I think Ben has a career day with 3+ td's, defense gets run over and around by Hunt and Hill but the Steelers win a close one in a shootout. Despite Tomlin and Haley.
 
I've been to two games in KC. We were supposed to win them both amd we won neither. I think it will take something special to win this one
 
Can we, yes. Will we, man that's a really tough place to go take a game from. We need to be as close to perfect as possible. We haven't been close to perfect this season yet. I sure as **** hope they can figure it out. We need consistency and we need the noise around the team to go away.
 
No, they can't. And they won't. Write it down folks, this is gonna be uglier than the Jags game. This Steelers team just isn't that good, sadly.
 
If they are motivated then yes.
I don't see them winning though.

KC is out for revenge and are top dog of the AFC atm. They'll remain that way
 
I predict the game behind by KC taking the opening kickoff back for a TD.

I've seen it happen to the Steelers before.
 
We were 2-0 against this team last year. Crushed them at home and won in the playoffs at KC.

Just sayin'.
 
Nope.

This week we get served a 50 burger.
 
Last night I dreamed our first play from scrimmage was a fumble.
 
We’ve been pretty successful at Arrowhead over the years.
The Chiefs do not scare me as I think they are not as good as their record.

If we show up the Steelers will be the Chiefs biggest test this season and that includes an underwhelming Pats team.
