    Everybody worries about Brady, but I bet we see a lot more runs than you would think. After Collins was running all over.

    We need to force turnovers. It's the difference maker.

    The Patriots defense always seems to stifle the Steelers offense. Too many damn 3 and outs, punts against the Patriots. The only way the Steelers win this game is in a shootout. Patriots can easily score 50+ points on Steelers defense. Unfortunately, I don't think the Steelers offense can hang 50+ on the Patriots D. Steelers will probably be playing "catch up" all day on Sunday, playing from behind.

    Who cares what you think, you are always picking against the Steelers and always wrong.

    I believe that the Pats can't run as well as the Ravens. They are not as tough as the Ravens and Brady isn't playing any better than Flacco. They will play mistake free, disciplined and well coached. The Steelers can and should win, if they keep mistakes to a minimum and don't make too many coaching mistakes. Tomlin has coached well the past two games. Ben has brought his "A" game and it's in Pittsburgh. Time to get the Patriot monkey off our backs.

    On offense, we need 4th quarter Ben for 4 quarters and play like last night, big passing yards and no picks. Great job throwing to Bell when needed.

    However, we cannot win if the defense plays like it did last night. The Cheats would have hung a 50 burger on last night`s D. Maybe we can get more pressure using some exotic, disguised blitzes, forcing Brady to check down. We will need to make quick tackles after their 3-4 yard dink and dunk passes and keep bringing up 3rd downs.

    The best we can hope for is Suh makes Brady run on his sore Achilles and it gets even worse.

    Last year Patriots rope-a-doped us.

    During the regular season game with Landry, Patriots just tried to run the ball, did some vanilla stuff, and then in the playoffs they spread us out and made our defense look stupid.

    Don't forget Boswell! He's definitely part of the Killer B's!

    Great to hear, source?

    Pats fans: "looks like we have to take Steelers ourselves, they are an 11-2 overrated team that barely beats bad teams"

    Meanwhile:
    Pats wins vs winnings teams: 3
    Steelers wins vs winning teams 7

    Brady aint winning.

    We can never run against them and they shut down AB. Last years AFC game. Coates, Hamilton, and Rogers had some bad drops. Missed extra point and settling for FG when Jesse James got us to the 1. Juju back and hopefully Bryant will step up. Hopefully McDonald can play. D-line is a lot better with Watt. Coverage is better this year. Hoping Hilton comes off the corner and smokes Brady.

    They will definitely double AB, but Juju will be back (and probably amped up!). Need big nights from Juju, Outlaw/Vance, and Bell.

    Bell should get 10-12 catches minimum

    First thing to do is to kick the kickoffs out of the endzone..kicking these short balls almost cost them the game vs the rats...big run back plus the 15 yard penalty

    I once read..............................We will crush them they suck!

    Say this every night before bed and the dreams will come true.

    If that doesn't work put Tonya Harding on speed dial.

    Beings that the vid is there of him blitzing, maybe play that hand but have him spy the RB coming out. The overuse of his blitzing could be a good thing

    I hate to wish injury on anyone, but I might crack a smile if Brady broke a leg tonight.

    That won't matter a bit we make back up QB's look like Brady or Rodgers every time.

    The Patriots defense is hardly pourous. They started that way through the first few games but, as always, they seem to have solved that problem.

    Their D-line is thin but they have been keeping teams off the board.

    I struggle to envision a scenario where the Steelers win this game, short of a Brady injury, but I hope I am wrong.

    The hoodie knows damn well his defense isn't good enough to stay with Steelers for long. They will try, and unfortunately probably suceed,to play keep away by running the ball and/or short passes

    Now I`m getting angry. Damn Dolphins teasing me they might slap a loss on the Cheats. Is this a mind trick by Belicheat so they play harder next week?

    I don't see how we don't win this game. Patriots D is banged up; Brady has looked very mediocer the past few weeks; Furthermore, who do the Pats have to counter Bell, Brown, Ju Ju, etc?
