If the Steelers lose like they did in week 1, I will be both angry and shocked...
The Steelers are down 3 of their 4 starting LBs; there is plenty to be concerned about. The Ravens have a guy named Ray Rice that the starting LBs couldn't contain in the first game. The "Next Men Up" are going to have play the game of their lives, IMHO.

I truly believe the Steelers were drinking their own koolaid week one. I think that they (as well as most fans) thought they would come in and beat up on the Ravens fairly easily.
I don't feel that the Steelers were prepared to start the season at all. That is the first time that a Tomlin led team came out unprepared.
It was something that I really liked about Tomlin, Cowher led teams were notorious for coming out slow and using the early weeks to "ramp up".
Having said all of that, I think we're where we need to be minus the injuries. Although that's going to be something that will help us out later in the year.

yeah but week 1 was insane.. 8 TO's? Couldn't stop the Ravens from doing anything all day. That isn't Steeler football.
We lost to the Pats for years and never played that bad....
