Home opener.

Seattles entire starting secondary is a mess.

The cynic in me says this will lead to one of the following outcomes:

1. The Idiotic "Jeynyos" strategy... where we see an obvious weakness and do the exact opposite because " no-one will expect that" We will run 50 times into a 10 man box vs a crippled secondary and average like 3 ypc.... absolute Genius incarnate.

2. The Lou Gehrig scenario... where all the backups are as good or better than the Starters and it isnt a weakness at all

3. The Scaredy cat collapse... They do suck and we do attack them, get up big, then try to sit on the lead and lose late.

4. The "Anything you can do we can do worse"... They suck... Our D sucks worse. Sam DUH-arnold looks like a GOAT vs our Efense...

5. The Fake out... All their starters are actually fine and play well.

6. The Bruce Arians Special... My Favorite.. Seattle, Realizing their secondary will be handicapped, compensates by blitzing the **** out of us. The Oline doesnt hold up and we decide that the best way to win this in slow developing deep passes... Rodgers gets sacked a dozen times and leaves on a stretcher, Rudolph doesnt survive either, we finish the game with a 5th string practice squadder since Skylar and Howard are on IR.

7. The Majestic Dumbass. An offshoot of #1. Yeah the seattle DBs arent good, but despite exploiting them all game, it comes down to a single drive and we never challenge them at all... opting for runs and gimmicks that fail instead... despite them not being able to stop us all game long... its fourth and 4 with 1 minute to go trailing by one...the seattle DBs are all out so they have all LBs playing in coverage.. lets pitch it back ten yards to the 4the string RB and see if he can convert...

8. The unspeakable turnover calamity. A reoccurrence of that Houston game back in the day where we put up 400 yards of offense, they had like 40, but pick sixes and fumbles doomed us

9. Of course there is also the true tragedy where we come out, recognize the weakness, exploit it, blow them out... and 1/4th of steelers fans have heart attacks in disbelief...

I expect the Steelers will try to keep it close and try to win late in the 4th qtr.

Just carbon copy that for every week until something trends for multiple weeks that changes that.

I'm paying attention to the defense most of all. I hope to not see the SOS.
 
Made it to the game. I will be relatively quiet on here today. You are all welcome.


Give us an overall synopsis of game, once you get home and unwhine.



Salute the nation
 
Wow this Defense is embarrassing!
They simply the players are getting into game shape...all the players fault. Nothing schematicly or philosophically is the issue. So I have been told going on 10 plus years.
