    You are the eternal optimist man I’ll give you that. Wish I could live with my head in the clouds.

    If you look at the team stats for the first 3 games you would think that we lost all 3 badly.
    We've given up 70 first downs and have made only 49.
    We've been out rushed by a whopping 418-189 margin.
    And we've been out passed by 781-598.
    The fact that the Steelers have won 2 of those 3 games is incredible.

    I guess the good news is that despite looking like dogshytt they won and are 2-1. This team could easily be 0-3 right now.

    3rd down and 4th down defense was atrocious yesterday. Run defense only appeared better because the Pats had a case of fumblitus. There's a ton to work on this week or the Vikings will blow us out of Dublin; however, as the Browns proved against Green Bay, any given Sunday is still in play.

    This OLine really needs to get it together. Rodgers had a case of happy feet and was never comfortable yesterday. Sooner the OLine gets it together, the sooner Rodgers will be fine. After the first drive and before the final drive, the Steelers had 69 yards of offense. This isn't sustainable.

    I'm happy to be 2-1, but we're in for a long season if our offense and defense doesn't put it together for 60 minutes. We just can't rely on the opposition giving up the ball 5 times a game.

    This is what Tomlin does, he gets the other team into an ugly one score rock fight. He likes coaching in games like that and the Steeler players are used to playing in them. That is why he has an incredible record in one score games.

    I have no idea what game they were watching, but Rodgers was under pressure plenty of times.

    Because so many of the pass attempts was quick screen pass or thing like that.

    Not in totality, just by each one of them.

    Also good no sacks although that surprised me too, feels like he was.

    I appreciate the optimism. We definitely could use a little bit of it with how our defense has played.
