Here's another thing that I keep hearing, but not quite understanding.

I think our defense is gonna surprise a lot of people Monday night. As I mentioned previously, I thought they played fairly well against the ravens except for a few splash plays, mainly do the overcompensated and worried about King Henry…
The Texans do not have anyone even near the category of a King Henry in their backfield. In fact, their running back room leaves a lot to be desired.
This makes the Steelers even more dangerous if they don’t have to play the run on the way to the quarterback.

There is iron in your words of hope for all Steelers fans to see and so there is iron in your words of Steelers defensive hope. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of one Steelers fan carries the same iron of life and hope for victory . It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of hope and dreams. It shall be victory….

Is Josey Wales the Defensive Coordinator?

If you're going to cite "a few splash plays", you have to cite the missed FG and the bad call overturning Likely's TD in the first Balt game.

Those two plays are the difference between 10-7 and 8-9.

I keep hearing the Steelers are coming off a great defensive effort/game. We gave up 359 yards which is above our per game average that ranked us 26th in the NFL, and gave up 24 points, that would rank us 20th in the NFL. Is it because Henry didn't get 200 yards rushing?

It could be because most of the Ravens' success were three blown coverage plays. Take those away, they really didn't do much.

Yeah, great defenses don't give up 14 Q4 points or the lead. And don't need to have a very make able FG miss to win.

The Rats just made more mistakes.

Hey slash, the post you wrote sounded like something an ancient Greek orator would say.

A couple of those TDs at the end of the game marred what would have been a great overall effort. They did a good job of adjusting and limiting Henry but good lawd that blown coverage, I don't want to see any more of that.....

Pretty low standards if holding Henry to 126 on 20 carries is "limiting".
