    And that's what hurts. Losing Bitonio is absolutely crushing. I'm going to tell you a story. The story does not have a happy ending. A few years ago, we had to play a 1st round draft pick named Cam Irving. I believe he played center during this story, and he was tasked with going up against Cam Hayward. Now, this did not go well. In fact, it went poorly. I remember watching Cam Irving getting his ass BLOWN apart by Heyward. He didn't just struggle, he was ABYSMAL. There were gifs floating around the web of Irving FLYING backwards and just getting owned. 

    Why is this important? Because not only is Bitonio out (who never played well against Steelers), but his backup is out. And then HIS backup is out. What's worse? We haven't even PRACTICED YET. Now, maybe we practiced today, I don't know, but we didn't yesterday. How can we get in a groove if we can't practice again? Ugh. 

    Points taken.

    This to me is a superstar game and it’s why you have them.   Myles who hasn’t been right lately shows up big against a guy he does well against.  He’s a game wrecker.  He needs to wreck the Steelers game plan....prevent scoring drives 

    On the other side Chubb...that big run Sunday where he brought Minkah to his knees do it again and again this Sunday night.

    Lastly and for the reasons I mentioned above ...Baker...loose, and free and playing against the odds Baker - showing out and showing up big.

    Funny thing is, I REALLY want to play against the Chiefs. Isn't that who we'd get if we somehow pulled this out? We're beat to beat them. We can score, play keep away, and we get turnovers. I'm not saying we WOULD beat them, but we're not who they want to see. 

  • Bad news first...

    Hadn't seen it posted yet, but Harrison is OUT.

    PTG's report looks a little more normal, but I did not copy the strange remnants from Sunday's "rest starters" mode.

    Ebron is OUT and JuJu is nicked.

    Unless the colts somehow win.

    I guess you are gonna find out, aren't ya? Ben isn't done. I was almost there before the Colts game and he was unstoppable in the second half. He is limited by our offensive coordinator. If they play like they did second half of the Colts they are making a deep run. The defense is elite and even with a flawed run game (a lot of it is our terrible oc) we have a ton of weapons. 

    ben is on his way out......face it....tooo beat up over the yrs......ehhhhhhh.....no running game.....this just in...you have shjit for a running game....and you will get you ass kicked because of it....can't wait to call your ass out on this.....you may beat the browns and you may even have somewhat of a running game because our lb's suck... but after that...you gunna git you ass hammered...

    Im not going anywhere, like i said with gipper earlier if I'm right i expect you in here eating some crow.  I have never ever hid on this board and i'm not about to start.  I stand behind what i say no matter what I say. If i'm wrong i'm wrong but i'm currently not worried about the steelers.  The virus and injuries are the biggest factors.

    Juju is 100% playing and i'm 95% sure Ebron is back, with all the shit happening at the capitol and my own day to day dealings i've been out of the loop with who is back and who isn't.  Our biggest return might just be spillane excluding Haden who i believe is missing Sunday no matter what courtesy of covid. The Browns facility is a fucking mess, I'd frankly be completely fine with pushing the game but i doubt the league will.

    If we go 1-0 after Sunday night- overcoming some of the obstacles- why not. Anything is possible.

    i think we’d play them in that manner and it’s probably the way we should play everyone

    Try to disrupt his throws.

    Forget the house... ^ this...

    The DL can't get there if he's throwing short, so follow his eyes into the passing lanes and go tip drill on his ass.

    Have the Coverage match the pressure...which we don’t do a lot.  We don’t really jam WRs a lot because we don’t have the 6’2’’ 210 corners 

    How many WR screens are we going to see caught behind the LOS result in 10+ yard?

    Well if Ward is out and Kevin Johnson is out and that Jackson kid plays again. Probably 30? 35?

    And now no Harrison. Throw us a bone!

    Eat crow over what?  

    The ONLY possible thing that I would have to eat crow over is if the Steelers go into  Buffalo and win.   And OK, I would have to in that case.    And the crow I will eat is this "Crow".  Andrea Crow:

    Excellent- keep em coming 
     

    Yeah I saw this...ESPN radio personalities were trying to spin it as confidence.  Yeah Okay...why give the defense another reason to hate you.

    It's funny that you blame covid but ignore the fucked schedule and covid that set the steelers on a shit path before regathering themselves in the Second half of the Colts game. How does that work exactly?
