I was saying that all day on Sunday. The thought of Ben playing clearly interrupted any extra reps Dixon could have had. That being said, Our Steelers had the lead, in the 4th quarter again, with a 3rd stringer, in Baltimore and the defense let them down. Again. terrible tackling,horrible pass coverage,serious problems trying to stop the run. It was feast or famine all night. Sack or big play. Ike Taylor should now know why he never goes to pro-bowls, and Gay will NEVER see Hawaii unless he is vacationing there. He is plainly and simply not a starting CB in this league.I am just recycling a post from earlier so I am going to stop now. The season has gone sour. Run the table and they might get a way into the playoffs. But even so, this is not a championship caliber team. No question. I was saying that all day on Sunday.
