    How good is Colts offense?

    Might as well assume Ben will get 30 or so points on the board, because if not, it could be a sad afternoon on Thursday.

    So moving on to our defense ... How much chance do they have of being disruptors? Can we blow past the Colts O-line? Is Luck good when flushed out of the pocket?

    I wonder if Timmons has found a new home, rushing the edge. That opens up their short passing game though. What worked against an inexperienced Browns QB might not be the same against Luck.

    I don't mind if our Plan A doesn't work, as long as there's a Plan B, and they're willing to pull it out if needed!


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

    HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!

    Luck is good at extending plays but he also takes a TON of sacks and throws INT's (if we can catch them)

      The Colts OL isn't good but Luck is a good QB and he has better receivers than the Browns.

      Need to keep rushing Timmons from the edge because we don't have another good option at ROLB. Some inside blitzes would be good to throw in too

        LT had a real solid game and it was good to see. I like when Davis is in the box on passing downs and LT is not asked to be forced into coverage. That "Buck" position is becoming more n more a hybrid position because of the higher percentage of passing plays these days. Did anyone miss JJ Sunday? Yeah he soon will be in the rear view mirror n that will be okay.

          I saw JJ in on a number of plays. When Timmons went on the outside JJ moved to the middle and dropped into coverage. Other than that he was just a body on the field.
          As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

          but Go Steelers!!!

              Lucks probably out so i'd say we should crush them defensively.
              Jones played slap tag and couldn't beat a one legged goat on offense.

                The rush offense is statistically very similar to PIT in yds/gm. The passing offense is actually decent (with Luck). Expect they will favor the run game with Luck banged up. At this point Steelers need every advantage they can get.
