    He's off to a good start, he even missed one game I think due to injury.

    Agreed Blast. Well said. :applaud:


    This defense and Le'Veon Bell is going to have to carry us for the remainder of the season. Either receivers not named Antonio Brown are not on the same page with Ben or Ben has lost his touch on the deep ball.



    Regardless, this defense is beginning to come into form and are playing more disciplined and sound than the first two weeks of the season. Should this continue, our chances of not only besting New England but claiming the number one seed increases.

    Some of us already know it is a done deal, as well as winning number 7.

    Power running and dominant defense... just need to stop the run and we will get #7,8,9,10


    8-10 will be with Landry

    Fake news. The Steelers have never started a rookie on defense!

    Has he even completed a pass for more than 20 yards yet?

    The elephant in the room with the whole Bryant drama is they cant take advantage of his biggest asset because Ben cant get the ball to him. I said a couple games into the season, how long before Bryant has a problem with this. 6 apparently.

    Watt? He isn’t even ahead of Dobbs on the depth chart.

    Ah. Kendrell Bell. What a phenom his rookie year. I was convinced he'd one day be enshrined alongside the great LBs of Steelers history. Shame how it all played out.

    Stay healthy, TJ. You're off to a great start.

    So, 6 more and Watts will break the record? And this will put him at double digit sacks as a rookie.

    3 in 6 games, with 9 games to go... he will need a breakout game like 3 sacks.

    I love how we are talking defense and power football in the same sentence as the word Steelers! No, I'm not crying I just have something in my eye.

    Author states he has 4 so far this season, although I have him with two in the opener and one against the Bengals. May have one in the last four weeks. So the math works for that (4 in 6, 8 in 12, 10 in 15- missed game two)

    Add: he had one against Jacksonville, according to espn

    didn't see that. 4 sacks in 6 games is impressive for a rookie. Jarvis had 1 his first year, bud had 4 in 16 games.
