The defense

[Shoe]

Defense didnt lose this game for us. Defense is the only thing preventing us from getting beat 45 to 10 weekly at this point.

Granted we dont create turnovers. Granted this isnt one of our best units. But they are keeping us in games we have no business being in based on how bad the offense is playing.

What defense is going to overcome that many turnovers? Name me one.

No defense can overcome 5 turnovers. But do you know how they can give us a better chance? Force one themselves! godforbid, maybe two! Maybe if they could also come up with the turnover, we could occasionally change momentum (back) in our favor.

How about sacking a QB a couple times early in a game and making him uncomfortable.

You have to be able to win a 1-on-1 battle to get a sack. I don't think the Steelers have that player on the roster until Jarvis Jones gets more reps, it appears he will be able to win some 1-on-1 battles, but not right now.

Woodley didn't get a sack on a rookie RT last night, he had a couple pressures, but that's it. On the other hand, the Steelers young offensive linemen looked over matched at times.
