All this worry about the Pats and Gronk, and Brady, and their no name receivers coming to get the Steeler defense this weekend. But seriously, How the hell are they going to stop the killer Bs? Bell, Brown, and Ben are all healthy, playing at full strength, and are all at the top of their abilities as they face the Pats for first place.

Bryant has been improving, JuJu will be a big mismatch advantage (if he plays), and Jesse James has just proven that he can be a big factor in the passing game. This team is ready for this matchup. The game will not be too big for the offense, and it will be up to the Patriot's bottom dwelling defense to figure out a way to slow them down.

This is the worst possible matchup for the Pats D, since the Steelers are talented at all positions and have a great offensive line.

This is the first game we have ever played the Pats with a healthy Ben, Bell, and Brown. I think they have the harder job this weekend.
 
The problem with our Offense is we seem to stop ourselves more than our opponent does. If we click like we have been and Ben is given the freedom to run the show I see a victory for us. Bryant needs to give 100% effort on every play. We can't drop the easy passes. In fact we need our guys to make the hard catches. Take our Offense to a new level. If we can do this I could give a **** what Tommyboy does....because it won't matter.
 
The offense is clicking at the right time. As long as Haley lets Ben do his thing, New England is going to have a heck of a time stopping that group. Go ahead and take AB out of the game. Ben will just dump the ball off to Bell and James like he did last week. It'll be huge if JuJu is back as it gives us a receiver to send across the middle.
 
They can't stop us. This is the time Ben has to put the team on his shoulders
 
Please Martavis ball out this Sunday. Ive even said its been better the last few weeks. But the Steelers need 7 catches about 100 yds and at lesst one score from you dude. They will double AB with two lessers, they will commit to stop Bell. It will be one on one all night. Probably a good corner but you are huge and fast. Need more than weve seen.
And for Gods sake Tomlin you have to at least look at man coverage. ****** fish plastered their wideouts last week.
 
I think our offense will do just fine. But this is a defense who has given up 28 to Brett Hundley and 38 to Joe Flacco recently. I don't think we will be able to keep up with them.

Just saw on ESPN. Patriots are 100-2 when Tom Brady has a QBR over 105. Have to get him off his game

Simple. The Pats***** will have their defense in the right spots to make plays because they'll know what play is coming before Tomlin does. Particularly in the second half.
 
Here is what it comes down to...........

1.) can our defense stop their offense better than their defense can stop our offense?

I don't think so. I think our offense can put more burgers on their "D" than visa versa. We have several players whom they have no answer for. Will they be holding and grabbing continuously. They will pull every thing to the edge (and past) that they can. Push offs, holding, tackling will all be over the line not so much in physicality but in "early / illeagal / cheap shot". I think our guys will be able to handle it as the score will reflect the sore loser the cheater's are.

2.) Coaching

Don't listen to all the hooplA of the media saying how great Billiboy is. He has chinks and they have been showing lately. He is only as good as his cheating ways and when challenged,...... He looks just average. I'm lumping their coaching in one just as our name Mike Tomlin. Don't listen to the media or a lot here on this board as Mike Tomlin has been performing above the line the last month or so. Is he perfect, hell no but he is good enough to beat these cheating MUTHER *******, H-E-L-L YES>>!!!!! Tomlin has been controlling the "scoring" clock and it milking 1 to 2 extra scoring oppertunities per game. That is big. Mike Tomlin has also delt with adversity and if you have watched the last few games,....... Enough said.

3.). Officiating

I feel this is a place where the STEELERS will not only play the cheaters as a team but also the NFL rules keepers. I hope it isn't insurmountable and the game isn't decided in the yellow flag. The STEELERS have shown in the past that they have the resiliency to succumb the rules call, good or bad. The amount of calls can hinder us but our coaching and National TV exposure will keep this aspect of the game a little closer than if it was played in shitfoxx stadium on a Sunday early game. The cheaters on the other hand haven't been tested on the bad call syndrone and if this game is a test of it,........I don't see them with the resiliency needed to be successful.

4.). Heart

Hands down this team has this catagory sealed up. There is an overflow of heart that it is contagious and the rookies are drinking it like Kewl Aid. HUGE advantage in the STEELERS favore for the cheaters have cheating and that's about it.

5.). Home field

It will be lwoB repuS atmosphere at Heinz field after all we talk a lot of the Browns / Bungles / other teams playing us as if this is their lwoB repuS. I'll take that as we have been under the cheating spell for way to long and this time we actually have things in place to free ourselves. I myself look at this as being the biggest game of the season and we will play accordingly with the HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE that we have. The cheaters will come to play but they will play without their home field advantage of the cheating process that they enjoy there.


That's all I got for now but there is one last thing I need to say or get off my chest. WHY the **** isn't there bigger fonts for ocasions such as this?????????????



**** THE cheating ******* *******
Prick licking **** suckers and
Of course their entire organization and
For those who benefitted the most
Shove the proverbial red hot poker right up
Their puckered ***** (note: t*mmy b*y's
*** Is always puckered.!!!!!

All the talking heads are repeating the same mantra in reference to Brady: He never has two bad games in a row, he. owns the Steelers...blah...blah.

NONE of them will admit to what we all saw against the Fins: a noodle arm, lolipop throws, worm burners. getting rid of the ball before the pressure was even close.

He's thrown picks in his last 3 games.......ponder that for a second. He's 40 years old and I think he's feeling the length of the season. Sure he has Gronk to fling 7 yard passes to, but if you pressure him he's going to collapse like an old lady at the grocery store who just found out the price of Depends just went up.

I think he's done, retirement coming real soon.

This was true about four years ago too, then by some miracle he found magic arm strength again ... said it was due to a new diet... lets just say i bet there is a random test coming up that he had to take and a couple weeks after its over he will suddenly throw on a rope again....

Simple fix. Have calls for the first half. Change to a new set during the second.

I would test out their RT with Watt and Harrison.

On O as mentioned hurry up or quick plays, play from beginning to end with urgency.

so why should we even bother watching, or even commenting on the game before it even kicks off?

To see how bad the beatdown is going to be so we can ***** about Tomlin, Haley, and Butler. Obviously.

Makes sense to you and me but I don't think Tomlin & Co. will admit the cheating is that pervasive and therefore won't do anything about it.

Our biggest problems will be on O with Haley and the play calling along with turnovers. We cannot turn the ball over, period. If we start this game with Haley's bullshit run, run, pass, we are in for a very long evening.

SORRY TDX27,..........our biggest problem is their "extracurricular" activities. We will prevail and Haley will actually have the OFFENSE purring, weather by his doing or by someone else's.

I know it's popular to bash Haley, but Ben is running Haley's offense. Those calls you don't like...yeah Ben is calling them a lot of the time.

Having said that I would like to see no huddle if we get the ball first jumping on them quick and let them play catch up. Give them a dose of their own medicine.

When they don't work it was Haley calling them. when they do ...well it was Ben. It's how I look at it ....Seriously though. After moving the ball in the no huddle at will it seemed against the Ravens in the first half do you think Ben called run run pass to start the third?
