So here are some of mine:

1. The Ireland game... typically I dread these overseas fiascos, but I have Irish heritage, so its a bit cooler this time.

2. Middle of the field passing. For the first time since 2018, I think we are gonna actually throw over the middle... its gonna be refreshing

3. The trenches dominating. Maybe not right away, but with a bit of injury luck, we could be really good on both sides of the ball across the line by seasons end. Again this would be a pleasant change up.

4. More aggressive play from the D in long down and distance situations.
If they cant do it with this group of CBs, and the OLBs pressure, they just dont want to. Every position but safety is stacked, and they still have average safeties...

5. Beating the Bears... yeah we never do that... I think our record vs Chicago is the worse vs anyone... Aaron Rodgers is like 26-5 vs them...

6. A mother ******* playoff win ... its time damnit... just get it done
 
They can put 3 legit receiving threats in at TE. I would have the 3 and GP in on most redzone packages, and Rodgers knows how to get it to them.

My biggest worry is have they figured out how to get a yard or two on 3rd or 4th down. They've been horrible at it for several years now.

Not sure what that would look like with GP this year.
 
1. to the Steelers playing


I want a playoff win but looking forward to it might be advocating that one will come about.. Very much for me a wait and see. Past failure makes me slow expectations.

.. but yeah to seeing them play
 
The starters actually playing, hope they’re ready.

The last Steelers game I attended in person the Steelers beat the Bears. Last second Bears FG bounced off the bar.
 
Looking forward to seeing

1) our potential franchise LT getting to play…LT!!!

2) an increased usage of Mount Washington in the RZ, make this happen AS&AR…mismatch city

3) the revamped backfield

4) Roman Wilson actually on the field

5) a more aggressive defensive strategy, anything less would be uncivilized

6) Lil Snack…Yahya Black, gotta good feeling about him

7) above all- putting a cherry on top of the Tomlinship with a singular playoff win, baby steps
 
Just want to win a playoff game so we can center on something else to ***** at next year. It has been to long.....

But not as long as Miami- had to look it up, but they have not won a playoff game since 2000. Dan Marino was still playing. That is crazy!!
 
And I am just looking forward to the Steelers being 1-0 less than a week from now!
 
I want to see Roders publicly blast Tomlin. I think Roders will do what he wants on offense, but still worried about the passive D. Roman looked good preseason, excited to see if that translates over.
I want to see more blitzes

I was wondering that as well…………the not sure part that GP being flown in for a few pl;ays a game……….

I want to see FOOT-on-the-GAS for the entire games. None of this playing not to lose bull-****.

Also all of the aforementioned mentioned stuff.

I want to see TJ and other players schemed for success, both sides of the ball.

I want to see helmet swinger PAN-CAKED both 2 games worth.

one Blitz is more than enough


wait you mean from the defense
 
All of you who say you just want a playoff win are, as Colonel Potter would say, full of horse hocky. If they get that far and win the first one, and then lose, we all know we will view it as a lost opportunity, not as a success.

I’ve openly stated that one playoff win won’t set the record straight. I think they need two this season, just to justify the 3 yr extension given.
