Deion Says We Are A CB Away From Winning Super Bowl

Not a fan of Deion but I think he's right. We need a shut down CB to put us over the top. Is that corner on our roster or do we need to trade for one like he says?

Deion is captain obvious

 

Missed the position, A ball hawking safety would put us over the top,

 

Either a ball hawking safety or a shut down corner. Surprised the Steelers didnt make a move on this. Especially when we are this close and with the limited time that Ben has.

 

Everybody wants a good CB. Why would anyone trade one to us?

 

we should have all the best players. just because.

 

Hard to take anything Deion says seriously............

 

Simple.


He is too immature to be "that guy!!"

 

Steelers have never been big in getting high caliber players in "any" position via free agency. If the shut down corner isn't already on the team somewhere, we won't have one this year

 

Artie could be that guy, but we dont have anybody on the other side or at the safety position. Most good defensive secondary teams have two people that can ball hawk or shut down. I still think we one short.

As far as when Ben retires, trust me we will struggle until we get another franchise QB. If you remember when we were a top team in the 90s, we didnt have a franchise QB, but we had Cowher and great defenses, and used ball control type offense. We dont have those types of defenses or that type of offense now. And we sure dont have a franchise type backup QB on our staff now.

 

walton, vince, shazier, adams, allen, harrison< probably still here at 50.

 

probably easier to say offense, defense and ST's. we are loaded for bear.

 

We played in 3 super bowls without a shut down corner, whats 1 more, and I expect burns and davis to be pretty good in their second year and with a better pass rush we will be just fine, Deion just likes to get attention........

 

yep i agree. it should be a big jump into year two with the benefit of so much playing time last year.

 

A shut down corner means nothing if you can't pressure the QB!!!!

If you give Brady, Brees, Rodgers etc., 5-10 secs in the pocket with the Ball they will beat you. Today's offenses and rules are geared towards to passing game..... They will beat you if they have time!!

Steelers are a "Von Miller" type player away from the Super Bowl...

 

Anybody read "One brick shy of a load"?

If you haven't, and you are a Steeler fan young or old, it's a good read/prognostication.

 

There - fixed it for you.

 

Every so often I start to think I know it all.

Then Deion Sanders appears and bestows a wisdom upon the world I could only every dream of having.

Thankyou, Deion, for this lesson in humility.

 

I think the same way as him...We need elite DB help to beat elite Teams ,I don't see our Team with elite DB'S as such we will fall a game short and Ben will retire and who knows how long until we can build a real Team that can compete..

I think the Team should make some moves now while we still have the QB ....

 

This. They were discussing Von Miller coming to the Steelers on the NFL network just a couple days ago. The Pats stopped our pass rush cold. CB's can only cover receivers for so long before "somebody" will eventually get open. Don't believe me, ask Ben Roethlisberger

 

Oh no, a shut down free agent CB this year or moving up in the draft for the sure fire player at any cost would have fixed that.
