    A good article on the current state of the Steelers

    The Pittsburgh Steelers no longer operate on a Super Bowl standard. Their current trajectory doesn't even place them in the playoff picture, let alone championship contention.

    "Time to readjust expectations." That is about the saddest summary of Steelers football I have read. Not wrong, just sad.

      "I don't think I'm on the same page with anybody right now," Roethlisberger said after the game, per ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler.

      Hey… it’s only the 4th game of the season… (Ghost quietly shuts his office door for a good cry…)

        IMO, thos all goes back to training camp, the coaches have no idea what this is team is capable of or not capable of because they didn't get quality minutes against someone other than their own players. Maybe every team has the same scenario, I don't know, but one person for sure that didn't come under enemy fire enough was Ben. The first four games look like training camp competitions, they win some, they lose some and some end up a tie, going to be a long season.

          To get the offense started, Start every game no huddle. Simple as that.

            That author should be accused of plagiarism, all he did was copy posts from Planet Steelers and string them into one article!


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

            HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!

              No Bell, no consistency

              I pointed out how Brady played preseason half’s while Ben wasn’t playing in the preseason and folks thought I was tripping.

              Ben needs reps. This whole team needs more reps. Tomlin better not have another preseason like this one.

              Hell, if we keep this up I’m ready to see Dobbs and using that QB money to sure up the defense.

                  What a shocker when your starter plays less than a half of preseason football and takes days off during the week.
                  At least Brown had an injury excuse.
                  Enough with the missing Bell excuse.
                  We came out vs. the Ravens and went 3 and out twice.
                  What kind of gameplan did they have.
                  Makes you think what does this team do to prepare for games?
                  On defense they looked lost when Lamaar went under center like they had no clue he would take a direct snap.
                  In my opinion we are a team that doesnt prepare well for games nor can we make the adjustments needed during games.
                  Problem is there is so much bad going on you cant just lay the blame on coaching.
                  It's a piss poor effort all around.
