    And probably not until until we make some coaching and Gm changes!

    Every board is like this. You have some pessimists (like me) who never seem to be happy, and you have the unicorns and rainbows crowd who are always sure that the team is just a tweak or two away from making another Super Bowl run. The truth is not always somewhere in the middle. IMO the negative nellies will be vindicated this time ... again ... and again.

    This team is still taking on water faster than we can bail it.

    I don't think I saw anyone acting like everything was fine and dandy after yesterday's loss. The resounding theme was- we suck, fire everyone, no playoffs, etc...

    I mean this with a warm heart. Not trying to be mean or sarcastic at all. :)

    I want some of whatever you're on. It must be powerful stuff and I could use some hope and/or happiness. ;)

    Forget 0-3 over the next 3 games. It would take a miracle otherwise. We're looking at 1-5 over the next 6 before the bye. And that's assuming they can actually beat a bad team.

    Disclaimer: This all assumes that Ryan Shazier doesn't come back as an unholy terror that raises the big play ability of our D significantly, and our offense suddenly learning how to score. If both happen, all bets are off.

    Blast it is all about match ups. Carolina was not capable of running the zone blocking scheme. The Texans have done it for 6-7 years, 3 or 4 years ago they gashed the Steelers. Baltimore will run it and Indy can run it with Bradshaw at RB. The Steelers do not have the defense to stop zone runs. They are what they are. The Steelers will be a 1-2 pt favorite against Houston and home dogs to the Ravens and Colts.

    If we lose all 3 and convincingly I am all for a change in at least coordinators during the bye week. Heck if they lose as bad as I think they will can all of them. My hope is they go 3-0 and we forget about yesterday but I just don't see that happening...

    Hell they'll make Fitzpatrick look like the second coming of Joe Montana!

    Luck will be put into the HOF before the game ends after shredding the touchdown record!

    If the trend continues a win every other game i could deal with that. Would mean we beat the Rats on Nov.2 at home, that right their would alleviate some of the stress this team has tossed my way. unfortunately you may be correct.. i'm struggling to muster enough faith in beating any of the next 3 opponents. Sad but true!

    ... Are all winnable, but it's up to them to want it. This team just looks less than flat. Call in doctor Phil hahahaha maybe he can find their happy places and get their heads back in the game.

    you are on to something dobb. we have the talent, but we are not executing and I'm talking mentally and physically. it takes both, if not we are losing half the play one way or the other on any given play.:cool:

    We played a great game, can't take that away from them, this board was pretty unanimous on that. You're right, our defense will have its hands full but we still hung 37 on Carolina and handled their front 7 very well. If our offense plays like they are capable of, we can hang with Houston.
