I think it is quite amazing that the team has stayed competitive and borderline, superbowl caliber for as long as they have been. When you take into account that we are almost always drafting after in the high 20's and seem to be allergic to FA impact signings/players - which is hard to figure. Steelers still want to build teams almost solely through the draft. Well that is kind of hard to do when you are constantly choosing from the leftovers. Hey, how about trying to moving up sometimes? No thanks, we're good!
This philosophy is outdated and we are not the patriots.... Add to that, when is the last time we drafted a DB that was worth anything besides Troy and Ike? Can we say "wake up" call!

i think we have the players we just do a great job of breaking them down and building them back up into trash DB’s.I think it is quite amazing that the team has stayed competitive and borderline, superbowl caliber for as long as they have been.

Haden is a beast in man.. so let’s put him on zone and watch him struggle. That’s show em how we do things here.
If we kudt
played man with 2 safeties over the top I think we would see better results.
Zone doesn’t work when the QB has all day. He just waits for a guy to run into open spots.
I also think the best pressure is or offense scoring TD’s and forcing the other team to catch us instead of the other way around.Steelers 27

I was watching the Titans vs. Eagles yesterday, now that's a defense those titans have. They will go far with that defense! Guys running and hitting all over the place. On offense, we have way more talent on our offense then the titans have, however, if we played them it would be no contest because their D would shut us down. Wise teams know that great defense still wins championships! Steelers use to have that philosophy - I don't know what happened!Comment

One thing that stood out is the Eagles had a comfortable lead (I thought that game was over when they were up 17) but their running game isn’t that good and they aren’t protecting Wentz.Steelers 27

Hence their reported interest in trading for Le'Veon Bell.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.Comment
