Doom or Boom : The Steelers start the season 0-1

We can all bring stats to the table but I want the gut feelings.

This crew starting 0-1, I think may actually help. There are a ton of unproven guys that a loss may help galvanize the work.

Id prefer to not start 0-1 but I don't think it's doom.

 

1-0 can also work and make them believe. On the road win will really make them believe.

 

I'll go with this. I want a win. So I'll go with ...What we need 2 leave Bills stadium happy for 700 Alex

 

Im with Fe3CCity & Heinz, they need no big heads, and an angry team entering the playoffs.

 

We got 2 win all the games we can so we can make it 2 the playoffs 1st

 

We should just be happy to be alive to watch another season. No need to capitulate the first game.

Save the crying and moaning until after we lose, if we do. LOL.

 

Doom Boom if Ben is injured its all doom. But i have a suggestion. since TJ gets all kinds of money . Maybe he should be back-up Qb or Rb or anything Wr . Hes the money man make him earn every penny.

 

If we lose first game I'll remember that a 12-5 season would be amazing so we still have 4 more to lose

 

0-0 right now, let's see how it plays out.

 

Well said SE, I too will be watching all you stated.

 

this is a must win off the bat i think. we will likely face these guys in the playoffs. i hope we set them back for that home field advantage. build confidence in these new players. a lot has to come together for so many new players meshing with the old. nothing like beating a playoff contender to start the machine rolling.

 

We’ll kill em

 

Lol, usually the week one overreactions happen after the games.

 

Oddly, if the Steelers win I think it plays out like this. Najee takes the league by storm and Buffalo doesn't know what hit them. The other way it could play out is that they stone him early and often and by mid-2nd quarter we're down 10 and the offense is back to five-wide, chuck and duck.

 

0-1 and on the way to sub .500 for the season.

 

setting the pace is huge i think this year mad dog. they don't get much easier the rest of the year. if we are going anywhere, these are the ones we need. show we belong right out of the gate. we have a franchise QB and the highest paid defensive player in the game, show them why we are forgotten contenders.

 

Reminds me of a poster from original message board named hillbilly (something like that) and his only post each week was, "they suck, we'll crush them".

 

I’m just excited for football. I don’t mind letting go and cheering my team on regardless of how they stack up on paper. I’m not going to over analyze every facet of the team. I just wanna watch and enjoy it.

 

Hillbilly biker or something to that affect. I remember reading his posts and thinking that he had to be inbred and illiterate.

 

Glass houses Glenn, Glass houses...

 

Even if we lose but keep the game close I think it will be encouraging. I could see a blowout w/Bills running away with it, but hopefully I’m wrong.

 

Man, you all are a bundle of joy this morning. Do yourselves a favor and go to the zoo or mall or do something else other than watching the game today.

I'm looking forward to a very competitive game and hopefully a Steelers victory.

 

What you know the guy?

 

No. And I assume you don't know him either so that's some pretty weak sh!t talking.
