Steelers Head into Jacksonville Hurting..

The Steelers are heading into this game against Jacksonville with an injury report that’s bigger than the 700 Billion dollar bailout list of bank debt. Not quite that bad but we’re pretty beat up after the last two games.

Lately Jacksonville has had our number lately but I think we can beat them if we focus on a few key areas. 1. Keep Garrard in the pocket and don’t give him any extra time 2. Stop the run and 3. Protect Big Ben, if we can do this, we have a shot at winning this game.

I know the players have to have the end of last season replaying in their minds. We had 2 heart breaking losses last year at the end of the regular season and again in the playoffs. You know they are going to pressure Ben, that seems to be the consensus this year. Pressure Ben and he makes mistakes, that has to stop.

I know I’ve been hard on Big Ben this year but he makes a ton of bad decisions once the pocket collapses or his go to receiver is covered. Oh yeah, it’s not 100% Ben, the O-Line needs to take some of the responsibility as well, they have allowed 15 sacks already this year…. ouch.

The game is about to start, get out your terrible towels and start the cheer. Here we go Steelers, Here we go! Make Myron proud and get LOUD!
