Last week we had to combine three, as nobody posted one before the game. And then three people posted one after the game started. To avoid someone having to combine some threads. I am jump starting the game day thread.

Just like the Steelers need to jump start their season with a hard fought win today, or at least a competitive to the end match-up. Get this season turned around heading in the right direction.

I am dressed, ready, and waiting.

Bring it on *************!
 
Keys to today's game

Win the turnover battle.

Big Ben will need to bounce back from the band of the hand of turnovers, and the WRs not named Antonio will need to get a little more separation in their routes to help accomplish this.

Limit Kareem Hunt's splash plays.

I think this is also the game our pass D will get tested as well. So they will need to be sound in both aspects of the game. Plus with the O not being where it needs to be, the D can help by limiting points.

Haley call a better game.

Mix it up, don't freeze frame on what is not working. Bring in Hubbard as that extra blocker.

Score more points than them.

Saving someone the trouble, as there is always one! Now to accomplish this perhaps a little better red zone production would help !
 
There are a few things working in our favor. A lot of unbeaten teams went down, Vegas only has the Chiefs as 3.5 point favorites, and usually we win against the Chiefs. However the Chiefs are the best team in the league and i am sure they are not happy we sent them home last year. We better bring our A+ game
 
Obviously want the Steelers to come out with a W, but even if they don't, make KC earn it.
The turnovers, mindless penalties and play calling have been brutal to watch.

Hope Eli gets a hat and Deebo sees significant snaps.

Also NOTE: When anybody makes a catch, please retain that catch. Better yet if you touch it .....(field of dreams) you will catch it

THIS is big. The kids is fast but a must to contain because we will (sing "feels like the first time"

Hey Todd, mis - n match. Makes me want to (animal house "SHOUT") S-H-O-U-T for a great play calling game. One that some actual game planning went into.

Score more points than them.

DOUBLE VISION as great minds think alike.....

Slash.........thanks for saving things..............!!!!!!!!!!!





Salute the nation
 
Chiefs will stack the box and make Ben beat them through the air after last weeks debacle in Pittsburgh. Ben rarely puts together back to back disasters so hopefully he can make the throws to win this one, but more importantly just don't turn over the freaking ball!!! If he plays awful again, it will have become painfully obvious that we are watching the beginning of the end for #7.
 
They are raking Ben over the coals on the pregame shows - Randy Moss is the only one sticking up for him, kinda
 
I think the Steelers blow them out today. Just a hunch.
 
All I know is #92 is getting a helmet, and that means we might have a sighting! I want Silverback all over Smith’s back showing these young guys how to get to the quarterback. Mayhem from our D to upset Alex Smiths rhythm and a fair to solid outing from out “high powered” offense.
