The Steelers don't have 'it'

[kgreen]

Sorry but I stand by what I've said before. We are not a Super Bowl team this year. Yes, we have the defense to get it done. But, as we saw today, that can only take you so far. Eventually they will snap being put in these pressure situations time and time again. Yes, great teams have great defenses, but they also have an offense that is at least steady in one phase. We don't even have that.

No, what we have is an offense that is disfuctional and bad. I really don't know hwat it is this year. Is it the OC? Ben? The o-line? Lack of RBs? Lack-luster recievers? I really can't fugure it. Today the blame should go to Ben. He had 4 turnovers and got saved from more. 21 points came out of that. I just have lost all faith in this offense. With an offense this bad, there's no way we get to Tampa Bay. We have too many problems right now.

oline stinks doesn't play mean and nasty in the trenches the way steelers ball should be played too passive!

I`m just as bummed as you are. But we will not turn the ball over six times a game every game. Without those turnovers, different game. A few keys today
1.) The most obvious to many turnovers. We should have had more points, especially down on the one yard line. We had atleast a 20 point swing due to turnovers.
2.) Missed field goal, not too often does that happen, but anothe -3 for us.
3.) The penalty on thier FG, that gave them a TD -4 There to.
4. And us not blitzing on third and twenty. Only bringing three. Why would we give thier wr enough time to go 20 yards?????

This game was within reach. But we played flat on both sides of the ball. Very unispired today

Exactly, this offense isn't carrying us nowhere. We can not run the bal, and without a FB it isn't going to happen.

Not a good sign at all. When that is the last time those guys will see the field for 2+ weeks. I mean if we were flat today, how flat will we be in 3 weeks? And this offense can't afford to be flat. I just don't like our chances. I think LaBeau did have a very conservative game plan on defense. We didn't blitz that much. We made stupid mistakes and my point is we can't be doing that at this point in the year.

All of the above dude. I can't see us in the SB ether.

I hope you're right. If they do have more I don't what the hell they are waiting for!

Today was a serious REALITY CHECK and quite frankly was the type of game that I thought the Steelers would vomit out several games ago starting back against the Patriots.

I have to admit that I was drinking the Kool-Aide but this is a 1 and Done playoff team.

The Steelers got some breaks along the way the past few weeks but they wont get those in the playoffs and I think they also got hot a couple of games too early as well.

A very good and exciting season but I believe they're the Offensive Frauds we know they are.

[yinzer]

let's be realistic as we can. the O is horrendous and the D is overrated. i know, i know, nobody likes to hear that but it's true. we've been blanketed with EASY ass teams all season.

CHEATRIOTS-- easy ass win. those guys don't know whether they're coming or going.
DALLASS----- another easy ass win. tony homo forgets what gender he is under pressure.
BALTIMORONS--- running game is sub par. passing game is the worst in the NFL.

TITANS---- easily handled by richard lebeau's zone blitz defense. take a note, stiller fans... it ain't gonna get any better until ARIASS actually loses his job...
