The underrated key to victory

[NorthCoast]

Anybody like what they saw of Ulysees Gilbert in the Cleveland game? I kind of did. I haven't given up on Bush completely. I feel he is still making is way back from ligament surgery. Schobert has probably been better than Bush but he doesn't stop the run that great either. I'd like to see more of Gilbert today. He looked to me to fill with better power than we have seen from Bush.

I watched Bush closely in the BAL game. The guy has lost at least 3 steps. The fact that Spillane was getting snaps instead of Bush tells you what the coaches think. Gilbert can't stay healthy. The Steelers lack of depth on both sides is dismaying.

The Steelers lack of depth on both sides is dismaying.

On D, lack of depth is definitely an issue.

On O, the issue isn't lack of depth, the issue is lack of quality starters.

KC doesn't give up many sacks. So I don't think TJ is going to have monster sack numbers.

And I'll settle for not bad Ben. Especially if we can run (KC I think has the 2nd worst run D... To us of course)

My gut feeling...Ben's gonna have to have a monster game to give us a chance.

Is Gilbert still hurt now? If he isn't, he may be healthy enough to help them.

I've ALWAYS liked Gilbert. Way more than Marcus Allen.
Even when healthy I've always felt that he gets no love.

He feels like a guy we cut next year who becomes a productive starter elsewhere like the dude we lost to the Ravens.

Would be amazing if it works out that way.

That's actually three keys.

Ben doesn't have a monster game left in him.

Or he is what he is and he makes the Ravens worse...

Maybe not.. but that's what its gonna take

[Steel Maniac]

Exactly …….

[flippy]

i hope he has a monster post season.

why not treat the rest of the post season like it’s the 4th Q?

i bet he comes out throwing like it’s 2005.

Thinking Big Al I assume?

Im talking linebackers NC
LJ Fort did not make them worse.

[feltdizz]

well, it didn’t matter..

DJ dropped passes

Ben threw deep on 3rd and short

Accuracy was gone on most passes over 10 yards until garbage time.

7 straight punts

Najee finally fumbled

D probably plays better if we extend a few drives early but 7 straight punts made it easy for KC to expose this defense.

Clearly outmatched.
