    Six Steelers out for Sunday

    A. Smith, Hampton, Big Juicy, Harrison, Worilds, Memo.

    Keisel is back in, Mendenhall questionable.

    Looks like we will see what Mclendon/Hoke can do.

      Holy crap. I don't think I've ever seen this team so beat-up for a game.

          Most were expected, but...Hampton? Where did that one come from?

          Looks like we'll get a preview of what it is like to have our young DL playing a lot.

          Hood, Heyward, and McLendon will get a lot of playing time along with vets Keisel and Hoke.
          Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

          Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

          We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

          We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                  hopefully Troy plays out of his mind. Hopefully Woodley decides to show up too, that would help

                      If the Steelers can't play offense consistently the defense will look pedestrian again. The Steelers really need the offense to become consistent, put points on the board and not turn it over. If the Steelers lean on the defense because the offense is inconsistent or non-existent it will be a long day.

                      We need Ben, Heath and Ward to play like they are capable, they're the veterans on offense.

                          Chris Johnson's first 100 yd game of the season?

                          Chis Johnson's first 1000 yd game ever?

                          I am kind of excited to see Timmons as an OLB.... I still feel that's his natural position.

                              I hate losing his covering ability.. he is a sideline to sideline guy.. I think putting him on one side limits that - and if this mean that Foot or Farrior will have to cover then we are toast.

                                  I believe Hampton was mentioned on the injury report by Tomlin on Tuesday, something with his arm or shoulder (can't remember which it was). This is the injury I'm least worried about really, we all know Hoke has filled in at DT with little to no drop off in the past and it would be interesting to see what McLendon can do.
                                  Some people subscribe to a permanent stasis of wishful thinking. They like to believe the world is made of marshmallows and filled with butterflies. I don't.
