Dickey soft Defense at it again.

[BURGH86STEEL]

I wonder why they keep talking about the great job that Ravens D cord is doing and no mention of Dickey...

Dick Lebeau doesn't play the games. It's no mystery that the Steelers are rebuilding on the defensive side of the ball. The Steelers also don't have the pass rushers that the Ravens have. No one expected the defense to be able to carry this team this year or in this game. The Strength of the team put up 15 points.

I wonder if our D is better if Troy didn't start?

I wonder if our D is better if Troy didn't start?

When are people going to realize that they don't have good enough pass rushers right now?

I think tonight it was coincidental that the defense didn't play as well as they have been and Troy was in the game. I didn't see anything horrible about his play; I would have stayed with what was working though and played Allen.

Defense played their typical game. Saw this all yr. The offenses inability to do much was the issue. Not the scheme. Get over DL moron.

Yep. Mitchell was pathetic in coverage again tonight. Don't see what he is bringing to the table in the secondary.

I hope the Steelers make the right decision and cut bait on Mitchell before his second contract. Ryan Clark never had the physical gifts of Mitchell yet me managed to make plays. Mitchell was a liability all year.

Dickey said early in the week Troy would start.

Troy playing was not the difference in the game. Unlike Mitchell, he at least made a few plays.

[Eddie Spaghetti]

the whole defense was disappointing.

We got out hit big time tonight and that's a bitter pill to swallow
