The Steelers are still living in the 70s by concentrating on having a great defense but only managing to score an average of less than 3 TDs per game.
    Our offensive difficulties have not been from lack of spending on offense. Even if we went with you philosophy, it still does not indicate that we should spend big in the FA market. You could do the same by using top draft choices on offense.

    Which was the exact point of this threat. Is there a REAL #1 receiver that can be had with our first round pick?

    And you're wrong. Our offensive difficulties are not solely due to lack of spending, but that is definitely part of the problem.

    OK, It is something to look at. However, it is far different than the post I commented on, about getting WRs through FA. That is not feasible.

    The team was no offensive force even before Roethlisberger got injured. Even if we made the playoffs, we would've gotten blown out. Just look at the scores.

    It would make a huge difference, especially with Miller and or another sure-handed TE.
