The Steelers’ pass defense: a problem or not?

Re: The Steelers’ pass defense: a problem or not?

and the "if the packer receivers could catch" card is BS.

it's not BS.

the point is their receivers were open all game long, in the future we can't expect professional receivers to drop passes when they are wide open in order to get our defense off the field.

case in point:

I coach a soccer team and last week we won 1-0. we shut the other team out, but only because they missed several close-in point blank shots.

even though we allowed no goals, does our defense have a problem? yes we do, because better teams won't always miss those shots and we must correct the problem of allowing other teams' players to be open in front of our goal.

and if the Steelers allow opposing WRs to continue to be open, that is a problem that is going to cost us some games.

Well put.

thank you, I'm glad I'm able to make sense to somebody...
