    Absolutely, insane!

    The whole game we were calling it on this board. The announcers were calling it. They have guys that can cover their #2 and #3 WR's, but they kept getting caught dropping into a zone scheme and getting burned by the #3 WR!

    It's simple! Don't line up 10 yards off and let them scream through the zones untouched!

    Got Torched!!!! in every way possible. This loss should naw at them all off season and if they don't come back from the first game forward and seek to take the bad taste out of their mouth won't much change. To much talent to be in this situation year after year. We are the Steelers damn it!!!

    I was listening to a podcast and right after saying that Belichick gets smart players that don't necessarily have the straight up athletic prowess to play in his scheme and it works....they turn around and poo poo the idea of Dirty Red filling the other ILB spot if Timmons leaves!

    Which one is it? Do you want smart players that can play the scheme and be where they're supposed to be or idiots who let #3 WR's run free in the endzone?

    Ironically, I'm typing this from Waterloo, Oregon.

    After the Battle of Waterloo (1815), the Duke of Wellington said, "They came, in the same old way, and you know we beat them, in the same old way."

    Bill Bellichick knows the Lebeau 3-4 better than our players.

    The team with the most ex-players in this year's Super Bowl? Cleveland Browns
    The Browns are the definition of insanity

    Lining up 9 yards in the backfield and motioning your blockers out to the edge....stupid...

    That first series of 3rd and one told the entire story of how this game was going to turn out. So many times we had third and one during the season and threw it. I don't care if it does work, you might try that against inferior teams but not against superior ones.

    The Ravens built a team through free agency to beat us out of frustration and they ended up being a patriot killer. I know it doesn't work often but I was always jealous of how they could hang with them even in the playoffs. Somethings got to give though. It's one thing to lose but we just shouldn't ever look that silly out there but that's what it's been besides the three or four unicorn wins we've had against them since the mid 90's. Switch to a 4-3, make splash free agent signing, get a Harbaugh or a Manning on the coaching staff, I don't know.

    This is a good article by Bill Walsh on what goes into selecting a player.
