Key to beat Wash

It's that time of the year!
Hello to everyone once again. Football season is back, and with it, all of our traditions.

Let's enjoy some Steelers football today. While we wait for gametime, let me ask a short, quick, simple and tricky question... tradition on this board!

 

We lost last years opener due to bad secondary play and kicking. Fix that, win the game.

 

Penalties and terrible starting field position for offense. It would be nice if Ben had some short fields to work with.

The defense is going to go through growing pains. The offense is good enough to overcome mishaps on defense if penalties don't kill them.

 

No stupid mistakes like killing promising drives with dumbass play calls.

 

Special teams needs to step up. Get good field position, pin them, make field goals. That and win the turnover battle. oh yeah stay healthy please

 

I voted "other" - it's the first game - all that matters is SCOREBOARD - you think the Bengals, Ravens, Raiders Pats and KC et al feel bad about their W's yesterday after scraping by? I don't care what it looks like tonight - just win baby!!

 

Is Cam playing tonight or not? We need pressure up front BAD to help that secondary out. Also Ben needs more help than just AB. Other guys have to step up and make a play.

 

I went other because you forgot about DHB he helped us win last year when we needed it and we will need a big play or 2 from him again , I think ..

 

Can't shoot yourself in the foot by losing the turn over battle

 

pound the rock, get the running game going and it will open up everything else.

 

DL play....if Cam,Tuitt and Hargrave dominate the LOS we win.

 

Communication and execution....


... There really is no need for in-depth analysis on fundementals.

 

Brown will be getting a lot of attention, and no Wheaton. Can't deal with dropped passes in key situations -- need the lower end of the receiving corps to step their game up.... (LOTS of things to choose from, however). HERE WE GO!!!!
