We need to get 4 ypc and get into more 2nd and 3rd and shorts than what we saw last week. It just looked like the team wasnt into the game, they were just going through the motions. Mix up the runs too, we again look way to predictable with that HB run off the left side, give me more draws and isos up the gut. Throw in some screens, end arounds, make the defense react because they blitz so good.
Defensively, bend but dont break baby. The Pitt offense is too good for this defense to hold down from moving the ball, if we can get jeff reed on the field for more FG attempts, we got a chance.
you can forget the running game in this one....need to spread the field and throw.not sure if have the personnel or healthy bodies for itWe need to get 4 ypc and get into more 2nd and 3rd and shorts than what we saw last week.

I've been chalking this game up as a loss since before the Cleveland game, but I don't think it will be a massacre. I think it will be a close loss. Our short passing and screen games, combined with Brady's accuracy and ability to avoid the sack are the perfect kryptonite against Pittsburgh's aggressive defense. If they keep blitzing their OLB's on every play then it's going to cost them some long long drives.
It's our defense's ability to stop Roethlisberger and their running game that I'm afraid of. That's where I think we lose the game.
