    Sure they will. Because once we get a lead they'll stop throwing. And then LeBeau's defense will **** it up, and the offense will bail him out.

    Like I linked last night, LeBeau's first game back, no Ben, Arians was the WR coach, and they had leads of 14-0 and 21-10 after three quarters.

    What happened? The LeBeau prevent struck again.

      Run-Run-Pass-Punt offense is the biggest culprit once Steelers take the lead. This offense was okay in 90s but not now. Not only you screw entire offense rhythm you just cool down your guns.

      Keep passing the ball if it is working. If your Offense gobble up only 2 min of the clock instead of 5 min who cares as long as they score. If that forces Defense on the field for more time well so be it.
      Steelers Draft 2015

      Rd 5: Henry Anderson - DE

        Please...

        You complain about the defense giving up the lead in the Houston game after the offense tied it in the 4th quarter...

        The offense tied it at 10...so, for three quarters, the offense managed 3 points...

        Most teams are happy if the defense can hold the opposing team to a totla of 17 points...with the firepower the Steelers have at QB and WR, they should be ecstatic when the Steelers D holds an opponent to 10 points through 3 quarters...

        This is why Arians is gone...

        This is why fans have such high hopes for the guy you call "the golf coach"...because he seems to find a way to use the talent he has on the roster...

        And, don't bring up the Charlie Weis thing again...when Weis called the plays in 2010, he had Cassel for 15 games and Charles for 16...

        In 2011, Cassel played 9 games and Charles played in 2...

          And in the first quarter, the Steelers defense not only gave up a TD on their first series, but they were on the field for almost 12 MINUTES before our offense was on the field ONCE.

          Like I just told you, context, not box scores and stat sheets.

            And 2009? How'd the Chiefs do that year Slap?

            Don't use injuries to defend Haley and rip Arians for 2011. Treat Arians the same way you treat the local guy.

              But, I thought a game was 60 minutes...isn't that what you always say?

              So, the offense is excused for managing a pathetic three points through three quarters because the opponent had one long drive to start the game?

              Now who's making excuses?

                I've never used injuries to rip Arians. I used Arians' impotent offense to rip Arians.

                  The Steelers offense had 48 minutes of football left before they saw the field in Houston.

                  Certainly you don't hate Arians enough to bash him for a game that he didn't get a chance to call ONE PLAY until 12 minutes were off the clock, correct?

                  This defense is overrated. If the Steelers offense doesn't hold the ball, the defense will struggle against good QBs.

                  Always has, always will.

                  But they'll sack some sad sack 5 times and the're "great".

                    So the Chiefs offense was impotent also.

                    It can't be one for Arians and the other for the Pittsburgh guy.

                    Has to be the same for both.

                      Why would I want to rip Haley's offense for the Chiefs? I would rather rip Romeo Crennel's offense...

                          That's cute. MY biased BS...

                          Did Arians call the plays for the Steelers in all of 2011?

                          Did Haley call the plays for the Chiefs in all of 2011?

                          If you're going to give Weis all the credit for the Chiefs' success in 2010, shouldn't Bill Muir be taking a beating for 2011?

                            Haley ran their offense until he was fired. Haley ran their offense in 2009 after he ran off Chan Gailey in pre-season.

                            The dude is a wacko, but because his Daddy worked for us we are now stuck with him.

                            And if Art II forced him on Tomlin like some suggest? I can't see Tomlin staying here when it's time to re-up. He'll go somewhere else where he's allowed to pick his own staff.

                                Yes, Mike Tomlin certainly appears to be completely p1ssed off at Art Rooney, because of his meddling and is looking for employment elsewhere.
