    Probably in the 40s, unfortunately.

    Until this defense show me otherwise I'm not optimistic.

    The NFL record is only 73. It could be in danger Sunday.

    I am 1000% positive the Falcons don't put up 50 points in the Burgh. I'm as positive as I was the AFCCG against the no longer San Diego Chargers in 94 and as positive Blake Bortles would not come into the Burgh against the 13-3 Steelers and out shoot them.

    Flacco, Tyrod Taylor and Fitzpatrick are far from the best QB's in the league. It's a joke that our DC feels that's been part of the problem. Yes, Mahomes is playing very well, and Ryan is a true stud, but 3 out of the 4 QB's we've played so far are at best average. 2 of the 3 have since lost their jobs.

    But to answer the question, no, I don't think the Falcons will score 50

    No. I'm starting Ryan as my FF QB and with my luck he will throw 3 picks and have a fumble or two cause I'm benching my Steelers D. Don't ask me why I still have faith in them.:facepalm:

    If Atlanta abandoned the run and just threw on every play they might score a 100 ... I think they score 60 if we keep it close 45 if we don't..

    It depends on our offense. We should be able to score as well as the Falcons defense is almost as bad as the Steelers. So if the Steelers score 40 then the Falcons will put up 50 without question, but if the Steelers offense stagnates then the Falcons will run more often taking time off the clock. If the Steelers offense looks the same as the 2nd half of the Ratbirds game, well it will be over by mid 2nd qtr.

    Maybe he’s right if we read between the lines. “Adversity is gonna help us in the long run” = “I’m gonna get fired soon.”

    I don’t think it’s all on him. As I’ve said in other threads, the failure to acquire DB talent is an organizational failure. However, he clearly has no clue how to minimize the damage.

    As bad as our defense is, Atlanta’s might be worse. At least equally as bad.

    Had Ben been smart at the end of the first half we would have almost had 50.
