My Wishlist vs CLE

Ok, so we've got a Neat ST game, Brown took one to the house, we created turnovers, Wallace scored twice and Harrison got 3 sacks last week
I guess this week I can't be too picky, but... for our game vs CLE, my wishlist:
-No injuries
-Pressure McCoy. If so, we'll get sacks and turnovers: Fumbles, Ints, I don't care. Take the ball away from them!
-Our D scoring a TD from one of those turnovers
-Polamalu making a big play (If he creates a turnover and scores, I'd check both of the above as OK!)
-Don't make experiments with O playcalling. No WR Screens, do not insist on running if it's not working
-Take a lead. Early. Big. And let starters rest a bit while the young ones get some reps (particularly on D: Sylvester, Carter, Worilds, Heyward, Carter, Allen, Brown, Mundy...)
-Mix the backfield & spread the ball. Mendy, Redman, Wallace, Brown, Cotchery, Ward, Miller... So many weapons that can make plays with the ball.
-It can be an easy game: Don't make it a close one.

And a W!
What are yours?

 

Those are all perfect and no injuries is key.

 

I like your list. These are the two that are least likely to come true, though.

 

Get the lead EARLY and rest starters to prevent injury/prepare for SF. These are key to me. I don't want this one to be a nail-biter so I have a hard time sleeping afterward and end up having to drag my ass in to work on Friday. It certainly is one the Steelers should dominate from the beginning - no question. Will they? I doubt it. They never do when they play at night.

 

I want to see major pain inflicted on the Browns, just because they are the Browns. Our LB's need to spend a lot of time int he backfield all over McCoy. It's about time we saw a dominating performance from our DL. Let's see JH put 3 starters out of the game this time - Massaquoi, Cribbs, ???. The Steelers need to step on their necks and don't let up until the final whistle blows.

Brownies fan needs to update his jersey with McCoy...

 

Your comments & picture reminded me of this:

 

Great cartoon!!!!

 

Great stuff!!

 

my wishlist: Ward ten catches in one game...gets to 1000!!!!

 

Ray Rice had 204 yards rushing against the Brownies.
All I hope is that BA took notes and just hammers the ball against a worn out defense coming off a short week.


That being said, Look for Ben to throw 49 times and Redman to get 4 carries.

 

Sad, But True

 

i wanna see the same thing that we did to the Bungholes but a better run game.

 

Remember how Mike Tomlin's first game was against the Browns, and we beat them so bad that the next day they traded their quarterback? Let's make 'em look that bad, again.

1. Shutout
2. Four 65+ yard TD drives
3. If Ben throws the ball a bunch fine, but if he does, his QB rating should be over 100.
3a. If Ben goes something like 17/20 for 170 yards, TD, and an INT, that would be fine, because it means that we're running the football.
4. I miss seeing us score safeties. We haven't had one since the NE game, right?

 

i would take a safety too

 

The safety will get a place within my SF wishlist -in your honor- next week!
