Please let it end. The Steelers pretty much own the Lions and a lot of other teams. Excellant football org. and remains competitive even without big money for signing FAs. Always a strong Dee and running game. Always deep at LB.
We saw the Steelers whip the Bears with a good ground game. 21 to 9 at Pitt. This final score could be 42 to 3. But my Lions are still playing tough. I think they like DJ and like playing for him. If Joel plays he gets sacked 5 times and throws 3 Ints. It will take some special coaching just to stay in the game. 6 down linemen anyone?

No doubt. I really want to see JoJo do well. He might have some trade value then. Best case scenario, this bad season ends on a better note and we have some optimism for next year.

I think Joey can be a decent QB in this league if the other pieces are in place. Brett Favre is the perfect example of an elite QB on a bad team, unable to make much of a difference. This whole team needs an attitude adjustment and to take the escalator up the learning curve.

How many games do you think Bret could have won with this team?

I think the attitude with Brett would have been different he commands respect.Would it have made the line block better or recievers catch better and run better routes?Who knows but I think he could have got us a couple more wins at least.

I think with Brett we would have seen 8-8. Is that really an improvement? Worse draft position and still no playoffs.

I'd go nine. We had a lot of close calls.

Optimist. Brett plays with a lot of freedom in Green Bay. He's said it himself that he doesn't want to go elsewhere and have to learn a new team, system, coaching staff etc.

Steelers by 14.

What did you think of the 2 tightend O we used against Saints. Better than WCO?
If we don't shut down their run game Steelers by 21.
Steelers rush for 160 yards. Ouch!!

I've said it before... and now I'll say it again...

We need a coach who will adjust his offense to the personel and not the other way around.

What do you guys think about converting Mike Williams to TE? I think it would be a good move. He doesn't have the speed to burn corners, but his size would be a big benefit against SS's. And he's got hands too, or at least he's supposed to right?

I would really like to see the core of the offense come back with a new coach, and a new system. I mean can we get anymore disapointed? I think not. I'd like to see the guys that we've been pulling for get at least one more shot with a decent coach. Play black and blue football.

As much as Millen sucks, he built this team in the image of what he thinks football should be, hard nosed, chippy, take a shot if you've got it. And the hiring of Mooch makes no sense at all, taking that into account.
