    On offense that is, they a athletic TE in Green which could help in the redzone. They have their top 5 WRs returning and top 3 RBs, Super Bowl 51 here we come if Colbert can draft some playmakers on defense within the first 4 rounds. They just need to avoid the injury bug that hit them last season, this offense could be scary good.

    Easily the best, most athletic, most dynamic offense in the NFL. Not even debatable.

    I really like what the Steelers have done so far this off season, kept quality players (ours)
    and made a key pickup at TE position. Here is hoping our draft is great. Need that safety.

    What they need now is to maintain throughout the off-season and beyond that sense that we could - against all the odds - still have been contenders for SB50.

    Offensive fire was never the issue last season, but consistency was. So they need that momentum, just like they did with SB40, to keep them focused throughout.

    I hope they use every pick on DBs and DLs.

    Were going to have a big freaking target on us week in and week out.
    We can't play down to competition and will have to bring the A game every week.
    This league doesn't hand you anything.

    now if we put it all together. tons of thanks to mike munchak for making this o-line into a contender. now pouncey needs to be fit back into it.

    thanks to richard mann in making this wr. group from top to bottom one of the best around even as ST'ers and blockers.

    thanks to james saxon for coaching our RB's to being a great unit top to bottom.

    thanks to james daniels for our TE's that have made a difference to this team in small ways that most don't notice.

    thanks to randy fichtner for bringing ben and our qb's along in this offense. say what you want but ben has had great seasons as of late and jones is far better than when he first got here.

    todd haley has had a lot of help given him to build one of the best offenses around. so thanks to him too in coordinating this all.

    as i've talked about before, these old vet coaches have made a huge difference on this side of the ball. the fruits of their labor and knowledge is showing. :cool:

    This offense can have so many mismatches against any defense that it won't even be funny unless Ben goes back to holding the ball too long. Kill any thought of conservative play calling and they should easily put up 30+ points a game if everyone stays healthy. I like our chances but the secondary still needs positive adjustments.

    Thanks to Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert, it starts with them.

    for that side of the ball, but they are also responsible for the bad side too. i'll thank mitchell as the DL coach. that is the best part of the defense. we don't have vet coaching from the DL back and it shows. :cool:

    Well, Tomlin can start by getting that skirt off of him that Harbaugh has put on him. He can start right there.

    Preseason scares the sh*t out of me. Every year, it seems, we lose someone valuable in a damn preseason game. It's almost worth sitting Pouncey, DeCastro, Bell, Brown, Roethlisberger, Shazier, Timmons, Tuit and Heyward for ALL preseason games... rust be damned for the first few games.

    You can probably say the same thing when playing the Bungles.

    I want the Steelers to be the very best they can, I commend them for what they have done up to this point,

    I will be one of the first to speak up against anything I feel (JMO) is detrimental to the Steelers of not reaching their potential.

    I do not drink the Kool-Aid like some board members do.

    Here I corrected it for you Rule - unfortunately "loaded" has many connotations. :facepalm:

    I wouldn't play Pouncey in the preseason with his bad luck and injuries.

    You keep playing that up, but their record vs each other is basically even with Tomlin having a slight edge.
