Steelers/Texans game

How's this for some sort of Tomlin/franchise record.... We have a streak of 6 straight playoff games where we trailed our opponent by 21 points......

Needless to say... I'd hope to at least snap this streak even if we lose.... Lol

What does everyone think Metcalf will do? Will he be a difference maker? Will he open our O up? Or will we just throw screens and 4 yard hooks/outs to him all game?. Will Muth be a bigger factor in the passing game? Or will Austin or Gainwell out preform him?

DK at minimum will draw protection away from the others mentioned, that in itself will help.

I see 4 nice mid-to-longer passes his way with success, that will aid in the running game as well.

Not a break-out huge game, but enough to turn the tide in a degree for a win.

Tomlinization will be the determining factor on win/loss.

No foot on gas will result in a loss.

If the Steelers utilized their TE’s a lot more, they would be decent on offense.


Don’t know why since Ben and Miller dropped off they have been allergic to the middle of the field

Tomlinization

Honestly, there is no way we beat New England again in New England, so tonight’s game would be nice to win, but it then it just ends next week.

I think New England is more beatable then Houston.

Bad Omen?

This game is all about the start. The Steelers have notoriously started slow for a long time now, including in the 6-game playoff losing streak. Tomlin has famously downplayed this in public, I hope behind the scenes they're doing something different.

If the Steelers fall behind early and become one-dimensional against this pass rush, Rodgers may not finish the game.
