Steelers-detroit I say it ain't a trap game thread!

Hoping for a big game from Bell. I was all for letting him go...now I want that son of gun resigned. Pay the man Mr. Rooney.
 
Keys to the game

* Detroit strength is their pass attack, good test for this revamped secondary and pass rush. I would test those detroit O tackles playing due to injury. Have to exploit this obvious mismatch.

* Limit the turnovers. On paper the Steelers are the better team. On the field to come away with a win, don't beat yinz-self. We will need a proficient game from Big Ben, as the Detroit is better against the run than pass. So there should be some opportunities for big plays from Big Ben.

* Score more than them. In a game that the opportunities should be there, I would like to see better red zone proficiency.
 
I am truly happy I won't be watching tonight because I absolutely HATE the humble bee uniforms. Ugly and they look like idiots. PS Rooney family no one wants to buy that jersey. I'd rather have a blackout jersey. Also tonight was the first of three games I had tickets to. Thank you Tomlin for forcing me to miss yet another game because you forced your want on the entire team even if the NFL doesn't give a **** what happens anymore as long as they get their money.

Get the 7's and 8's instead of the 3's.

And here I was hoping for a second they were making a come back. When they first used them I couldn't stand them. Now they are my favorites. Well were my favorites I guess.....since they are no more. :(
