On to Buffalo we go

Time to see if this Defensive Coordinator can pressure Allen all the time.

Not just a couple series, I’m talking the way the Giants beat on Brady type pressures.

It’s gonna have to be 4-5-6 sacks.

 

Record vs playoff teams-
Bills- 5-1
Browns- 4-2
Steelers- 5-3
Ravens- 5-3
Texans- 2-2
Chiefs- 1-4
Miami- 1-5

 

they are not too worried. 2 of those games were meaningless, as most of us know. and a couple were Lamar-less, altho that has not been too much of a concern, either.

don't get excited about traveling to Baltimore.

BUFF is a tall order.

If Tomlin thinks he will play conservative and trust the run only in the first half, he will lose. We will be down 17 - 6 at the half.

OPEN UP THE OFFENSE and let Mason take shots - short and long. Throw the S's and LB's off the LOS, then RUN HARD at them.

bye now.....

 

True dat - but a YOUNG QB and TE then. HIT THEM in the mouth w Mason, GP, DJ and Pat! spring in a reverse to Austin - maybe even a screen to him

 

this won't work, unless we can pass

they will pile up that box

 

Yeah but if the steelers can hit some big passing play like they have done in the last 3 games,it will help their chance a lot!

 

agree 100%

cannot turtle on offense, cannot playcall in our fears.

run run pass
run run pass

none of that

 

While I normally agree with the open up the offense line, it's going to be 20 degrees, windy, and probably icy on Sunday in Buffalo. In that case, you use the run to open up the pass. Buffalo defense is #28 rushing ypc this year. This game, if the weather is as predicted, is set up for Najee.

 

As we do now
Hell yes

 

Playing conservative will get us no where,it's the playoffs!!

 

deep to pickens play 1.

 

Not going to be an easy contest. Have to pressure Allen early and often and spy him for his runs. This is the key to me.

To much conservative play will ruin the day. Back the safeties up with some throws then smash them with powerhouse runs. Keep Najee running North and South!

Best not be another playoff blow out!

 

Then they need to feed Najee like they did against Baltimore.

 

6pm?

 

Love Jaylen, but boy did he struggle holding onto the ball Saturday

 

Balt rested lots of starters. Will have to throw

 

Best case scenario for the steelers.....Big passing play early and after run early and often and when the bills stack the box again,hit the big passing play again!!!

 

Try to keep it close, utilize Najee and Warren.

Watching little bit last night Buffalo does give up some rushing yards. Make a few big throws when you need to, win turnover battle.

Gives Steelers a simple shot.

 

Nick Herbig will have to show up in a huge way.

He's made some plays before.

But with Him and Golden Steelers have much better depth to deal with a TJ Watt absence than before.

 

they gave up yards vs. the run b/c they respect Tua and Hill.

 

HE CAN!!!

GO NICK!!!!!

best spot of depth is at OLB!!!!!

 

Are we rolling with Mason or Kenny at QB?

 

Mason
