    Funny...

    Solid win last night and almost no discussion of the game. Especially nothing from the glass half empty group
    Lots of good last night--offense was solid. Defense got big stops and INTs.

      Defense came up big with 2 goal line stops.
      Getting all excited about playing against a backup with 1 career TD errrr, not so much.
      Colts hung around until the 4th quarter.

            a fortunate win.
            different story if luck played
            still too much dumsh!t from players and coaches to think this team is a contender
            we might make the playoffs if we continue to play pathetic and injured teams

              If the Steelers beat them they must be pathetic. Most NFL team employ pathetic athletes. The Steelers blew out Indianapolis worse last year when they had Luck. Every team has injuries. You can always find a convenient reason to be critical about Steeler success if that is your choice.

                I like the continued improvement of the rookies--Burns, Davis and especially Hargrove, who was a beast last night. Thinking maybe the addition of a run-stuffing NT in the draft (E. Qualls in the 3rd?) will allow the Steelers to have three good DE to rotate--Heyward, Tuitt and Hargrove and keep Hargrove out of the pure run-stuffing role. That could be a nice DL for years to come. Good, not great win. Like to see less penalties and a few other guys jump up and make third down plays when AB and LB are blanketed. Nice to see L Green stretch the field a little at TE. I think this team is on the rise and has time to improve by the playoffs.

                    ...and of course we have no injuries like to our best defensive player, half our WR group, our primary back up RB, etc. Ridiculous statements continue to be the norm anytime something goes right for the Steelers. Every team has injuries but we seem to be dealing with them and the Colts were not a sub .500 team until we beat them.

                      Possibly because it was the Colts without Luck. Our O did well, but we've been more concerned about the D in the past few games, and although they did keep them to 7, it wasn't as if they stifled the colts offence -- they played better than the score card indicated.

                      The real mettle of the team will show up next week. If they beat the Giants, I think you'll see people out here cheering and gloating and talking playoffs.

                        I was gone until tonight, so I'll chime in now ... I'm happy with the improvement of some of the young defensive players, and happy that the team sustained no serious injuries vs. the Colts. Hope they're on an upward trajectory where they keep getting better every game.
