    One can't look at this 53 and think that The Steelers are done here.

    Unless the Dime, Dollar, Seminole etc. Majority DB defense is going to be our true base in the Cleveland game then having 3 OLB and 6 DB seems like the first glaring sign that either.. An OLB is bumped up from the practice squad and a Safety is dropped. Or perhaps an outside guy like John Simon comes in.

    Then likely when Bell signs and reports either Jaylen Samuels or Steven Ridley are waived and attempted to move to the PS.

    Will the team in coming into this first game have any cohesion?

    That question concerns the TEs all having dealt with some injurys through training camp and preseason. Le'veon Bell possibly not showing up in true football shape. A defensive group that looks very very different from the one put out in week 1 last year, and we don't even know what it will actually look like still, this Tuesday prior.

    Extremely interesting, exciting, and anxiety creating.

    Did we ever have one like that? I know we have one with 3 safeties. We have one with 7 defensive backs. If you are thinking I mean we will use 4 to 5 LB on defense that's not what I meant. They would be the 4th or 5th OLB if something happened to one of the first 3 we have now. It wouldn't surprise me if we used 4 or 5 safeties in some fashion though. :cool:
