TODAY…………….it begins

[Drink IRON City]

1st day training camp and we have a new person there, one not seen in what seems like a Centry.

Welcome Mike, only though a different than usual Mike appears.


DK sports has a pretty good take and worth the listen





I’d like to hear what everyone thinks & how this camp will emerge along the way.

Battles have winners and losers, favorites and foes……………

Again, hats off to the new coach, a true Pittsburgh Boy who realized his dream.




Salute the nation

Can't say much about defense. Though there is talent there. Not sure about coordinator there. But they gave up a lot of yards and some big points last few years.
But I am absolutely certain the level of detail on offense will be sonething we have not seen in .......many of our lifetimes to be frank. And it will translate to points and an intersting season. I dont knlw about SB. But at least a team that looks capable of a playoff run.

I'm excited about the new season and new coaching. I boldly predict other teams won't be calling out the plays before the snap. McCarthy is smarter than Tomlin in that area. The defense will look different because players won't be coddled like they were under Tomlin (TJ). Some players will be used properly.

I'm thinking (hoping) the D is going to have a lot of wrinkles this year that opposing O's will take some time to figure out. We have a lot of good chess pieces that I think will be moved around the field to take advantage of and create mismatches. It will take until the regular season to see a lot of this play out but I am hopeful this D starts looking more like the highest-paid D in the league.

I'm also very curious to see how high-powered this O can be. The WR's, TE's, and RB's should have any QB and OC salivating. If the QB, Rodgers or other, can settle in and make plays, this will be fun.

WE RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!

McCarthy , while coaching the Crygurls, had about 4 seasons where his offense averaged 29 ppg. I hope we can see some of that.

Yes I predict a lot of 24 point plus games legitimately scored on offense.
Yes I also see a risk it for the biscuit defense. They will give up some house calls maybe they didn't before but Im betting they will also be far less predictable.
Most of success will come down to health.
