Keys to the Jets game

Hell that is my Holmes jersey I'm wearing in my profile pic......

Keep the jersey for sure, but change your avatar...at least for this week.

I'm confident that we'll be fine on D. And we'll have a plan for that pt smoking jagoff. I also think that Rex will have a good game plan against our O. Our O line is still the weak link that he's sure to take advantage of. We may need points off of turn overs to win. As mentioned before ST needs to do a better job. The Jets gave up a huge return late in that game so maybe it'ss time for us to get 6 on a return.

If the special teams play like they did against the Rats, I think we'll be okay. Minus the kickoff where Sweezy had to make a tackle and the punt return that was called back, they did a pretty good job. Kept them behind their own 30. That's all they really need to do for the defense.

Special Teams is a big X factor in this game. The Steelers can ill afford to allow another opening drive TD. I'm quite sure they will be watching the film of that first matchup this week in the special teams meetings. If the Jets don't score that TD or we don't allow that stupid Safety, we win that game. We gave it away on bad play call and poor coverage. Credit the Jets for capitalizing but the Steelers will correct those mistakes.

OLB's have to set the edge every play after the Sanchez touchdown we got burned on.

Special Teams is a big X factor in this game. .

Nick Foley is Jeff Reed of NY, he could very easily miss a 30 yarder in Heinz Field.

Sanders/Brown will be key. You have to assume that Cromartie and Revis will not give up much. But Coleman and Wilson very well could. When Ben escapes the pressure these 2 very well will be on the end of a big play or 2.

Like Farrior and other vets said before the Ratbirds game. "Just do your job, don't be looking to make the big play, there are plenty of play makers on this team, it will happen when it happens." As far as the coverage team, stay in your lanes!!

defense
1. stuff the jets running game , force sanchez to throw to win the game
2. hit sanchez early and often

offense
1.establish run game
2. get heath miller involved in the passing game
3. sanders and brown could be the x-factors in the game as revis will probably watching wallace...could also be a time for hines ward to have a big game especially on third down
4. keep ellis away from ben

we do this we should win fairly easily...go steelers

#1) Put constant pressure on Sanchez

#2) Shut down Tomlinson and Greene

#3) Cover kick off and punts well!

#4) No turnovers!

and #5) Have the NFL give Santonio Holmes a random drug test.

#1) Put constant pressure on Sanchez

this is the key I think and I look for our D to do just that

In his 2-year career, Sanchez has always struggled earlier in games rather than later. Since the Pats game, LeBeau has chosen to bring pressure later in games rather than earlier so perhaps with Sanchez's history this may move DL to change things up a bit.
