The only way the Steelers can dust the Colts again would be if the Colts can end up at home during the palyoffs.Even if the Colts get in, they would be in Pittsburgh anyway.

I found the piece of the terrible towel under the RCA Dome field turf. The Steelers won't have a chance when the come to Indy this year and play in Lucas Oil Stadium.

I hope they can steal a victory from Jacksonville this Sunday Night and then take the bye week to get healthy and - hopefully - knock some sense into the offensive line!

I do believe he is starting to feel the pressure before its actually there. If they can pull off a win this weekend as depleted as they are, my guess is the week off and a 4-1 record will rejuvinate the team. 3-2 is good, 4-1 is always better. The o-line coaching and offense game plan MUST get better. Tim, while I do agree Ben hasnt been playing “lights out” we must admit that in order for him to do that, he has to be standing up.

However, Big Ben certainly hasn't been playing like a $100 Million Quarterback. He seems to be regressing instead of progressing. Oh well, I guess I have impossibly high standards for our starting quarterback. If I owned the Steelers I'd be pissed that Big Ben isn't playing lights out each and every down!

Arians insists in throw the recievers deep, and with a very bad line, every time Big Ben is under pressure, sack, hit or whatever. Yesterday was Kemoatu taking off Ben shoe. In 2nd. half in the no huddle offensive with quik routes, they move the ball perfectly the result a TD. then they get back to the same. Tomlin has to realize that Arians has not OC material. I guess the fault is not entirely of the O-line. I tried to cool my head a little yesterday and analize what is making that O-line play so bad, the answer is play calling.

Funny that when Simmons went out, the o-line did not give up another sack. weird, huh? Good to see BIG BEN fire up the troops, they needed it. This line is bad and the coaching is even worse. This team, in this condition, will go no-where fast. I hope I am wrong but weaknesses will be glaring now. No way to hide them. Well, we got a win but it was just as ugly as our loss last week.
