Easier said than done, but they have to contain Barkley. They have to maintain discipline on play action. They can move the ball so I don't see a problem there. Pickens will be missed because he takes the top off a defense. 1965 was the last time they won there. Eventually, the law of averages swings in your favor.
Without Pickens being available, this game just got a lot harder for the Steelers. I personally think they’re going to have issues stopping Barkley. With no Pickens, they’re defensive backfield of Mitchell, DeJean, Slay, and Gardner-Johnson are going to really blanket our receivers and hopefully Arthur Smith has a really good game plan for getting the receivers open this week. I don’t expect them to get blown out, and lots of nail biting. Hope Tomlin doesn’t try to get cute on fourth downs and set the defense up for failure. I’m really looking forward to seeing Frazier against their defensive front. Concerned with how our tackles perform today, hopefully we can minimize stupid penalties and sustain drives and finish in the endzone. this is the start of the real gauntlet for the Steelers and decide whether we’re really contenders or pretenders… Good luck and can’t wait to see the game today.
I will never buy the NFL Ticket again…. Once again, I can’t watch it on my subscription….. grrrrr guess I’ll have to wait for the replay
Steelers are getting killed on penalties…. Hard to get any momentum when every other play is a penalty
Colts getting spanked by the Broncos. So we have clinched a playoff spot. Sucks that we are going to lose today. TJ has an ankle sprain so he should be alright.
Najee's fumble took the air out of their sails, it's that simple. O without PIckens is just not the same. I just realized something today, when Jacksonville has the ball, and they are on the field it is called Jag. Off. for short.
Najee messed up our chance to come back, that’s for sure. He just looked down field before securing the ball.
