    The Dallas game

    They are rolling, rolled over their "trap game" this week. They are overrated, and if we dictate to them, there is no reason we don't win that game. Defensively, we need to learn from the way we crap the bed vs. guys like Tebow, Terrelle Pryor. On offense, they simply have to be better. Get out early, and put pressure on Dak to make throws.

    Cuz it will be a really sick feeling, losing to the *, these guys, and Dallas in back-back-back weeks. (Not to mention MIA debacle.)

    I don't feel the confidence you are feeling. The boys are 7-1 and playing well. If the Steelers play as they have over the last 3 weeks this one could hurt. A lot! Dallas has put up 28 or more points their last 4 games. Steelers haven't put up more than 16 the last 3 games.

        This is the most Jeckyll - Hyde team I can ever remember. We get Dallas at home, so who knows. We could get blown out. We could win.

          The thing is, we've gotten blown three times in four weeks when you think about it. MIA blew our doors off, and * little brother'd us, and don't let the score fool you: this game was similarly humbling. Most pro teams react well after one embarrassing game, we're coming off three. It's why I was feeling good this week, even though we were playing a team we always struggle with.

          At some point, professional pride has to come up and rise.

            Ezekiel Elliott is leading the league in rushing. Next week we could help ensure he stays in the lead unless we figure out how to tackle.

                I think we win this game.

                we will return to form now that Ben got his feet wet.

                I'm losing patience with Ben tho. He isn't getting any younger and lately he gets hurt before every Baltimore road game. Maybe it's just bad luck or an aging body but this hurt Ben for 3 or 4 games every year is getting old.

                  He's been overrated for a few years now. Odd that the management isnt looking for our version of Aaron Rodgers..

                      We can win the Dallas game, depends which team shows up. We'll be another week healthier too (not sure what's up with DHB, though).


                      We got our "6-PACK" - time to work on a CASE!

                        The only thing that scares me is stopping the run and Cole Beasley.
                        I think our running game gets back on track and there is no way DAK matches BEN at Heinz

                          Dark is good. Scary good. He is playing like Ben his rookie year. He takes care of the football and doesn't force the issue.

                          I still like our chances at home and as long as the real Big Ben shows up.

                            Why do you have to bring Prescott's skin color into this?
                            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.

                              Cowboys think Ron Leary can play this week
                              Posted by Josh Alper on November 8, 2016, 10:39 AM EST


                              Guard Ron Leary expressed interest in a trade from the Cowboys during the offseason so that he could go to a team where he’d be in the starting lineup, something that wasn’t the case in Dallas because of the presence of La’El Collins at left guard.

                              The Cowboys didn’t make a move, however, and left themselves with an experienced and capable replacement for Collins when he had to go on injured reserve with a toe injury. They don’t have another option like that behind Leary, so his departure from their victory over the Browns with a concussion was a blow to the offensive line.

                              On Tuesday, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that there’s “nothing definitive” about Leary’s status for this week’s game against the Steelers but that the team is optimistic about having Leary on the field.

                              “We feel good about him playing this week,” Jones said on 105.3 The Fan.

                              Jones also updated safety Barry Church’s status by revealing that Church will have surgery on his broken forearm after the initial feeling was that he’d avoid an operation. Jones said the change is not expected to change the 4-5 week timeline for Church’s return to action.
