    Just easier for an ESL guy to type Dragon than his full name...

    ours is not to wonder why just invert and multiply...

      More positive numbers so far this season...

      4 -Games this season when the Steelers have scored first.

      15 -Seconds it took in the third quarter for the Steelers to turn a 13-3 deficit into a 17-13 lead against Balt.

      14 -The Steelers won their 14th consecutive home game on Monday Night Football, extending their NFL record.

      36 -Successful field goals for Jeff Reed in his last 38 attempts.

      6 -Sacks for James Harrison in the last two home games against Baltimore.

      59:42 -Playing time the Steelers shut out their opponents in the first quarter this season before Baltimore’s Matt Stover kicked a 33-yard field goal.

        I think Troy has always been Troy but LeBeau has finally gotten the LBs needed for rushing the QB and is using Troy the way he wanted to all along. LeBeau is no dummy, I am sure last year he was using Troy to cover for our poor pressure on the QB. Nobody in the NFL has the range of TP...

        Biggest positive surprise; Special Teams. A couple of key additions on kick coverage has made all the difference: Woods and Fox especially.

        He hasn't played alot yet but early signs are the McHugh is a capable addition as well.

        With our brutal schedule we will need a lot of help from second-teamers to make it to the playoffs this year. So far they have stepped up including Eason and Kirsche.

          I was going to post this, but you beat me to it...

          With Harrison and Woodley applying pressure, Troy doesn't need to take on offensive linemen any more...
          Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

            Kemo has two fewer letters than Dragon. Unless you don't want to confuse him with former Steeler d-lineman Kimo (von Oelhoffen).
            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.

              Agree completely.
