Do you think there should be a coaching change on the Defense side?

Kind of inclined to agree with Uptown. I put more blame on the guy buying the grocery(Kevin Colbert) Some bad drafts. At the same time Dick LeBeau has been coaching for 100 years. He has been running the same defense in Pittsburgh for 50 of them. Tom Brady can hang 55 points on this defense before he ever steps on the field. Just spread them out especially when the CB are playing 8 yards off the receiver. I like LeBeau but all good things must come to an end.

Hasn't the LB coach Keith Butler been waiting forever for LeBeau to retire and take over as DC?

I could be wrong on this but doesn't seems like over the years when the Steelers scores alot of points in the first half the tend not to score that much points the second half. It's like yeah we got a big lead so let's run out the clock (yeah 2 whole quarters). Let's not play to hard because we don't want anybody getting injured. Dam I hope that's not the case. Steelers have to play ALL four quarters. I know they like to run out the clock but once again PLAY ALL 4 QUARTERS.

Yes. The difference is when Cowher was coaching the Steelers had the beef of front on the oline(Faneca,Smith, Hartings, etc.) Now look at the line the Steelers have and that's why that philosophy doesn't work. This line can't block. Pouncey is the most consistent and that's it. DeCastro has shown me very little and they invested second round picks in Gilbert and Mike Adams. eek

I'm amazed LeVeon gained 100 yards Sunday. You noticed some of those runs he got on his own. Let's not talk about our situation at corner. Every a Steelers fan knows the team is in dire straights at corner and what does the front office due wait until round five to draft another practice squad CB. The Dri Archer pick in the 3rd round made no sense with issues at CB and oline. This is what I mean it's more the fault of the GM buying the groceries versus the coaches.

Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint

Abdul	phunkdaddy said: Nothing against the Eagles but they benefitted from one noncall holding on TY Hilton that resulted in an INT. Then the tackle on Shady McCoy was not a horse collar tackle. Ray Lewis even stated it was a shame the game was decided on those calls. Hey!!!! We'll take the wins anyway we get'em,

Abdul	uPtoWnNY said: After another shaky first half, Eagles come back again. Signing Darren Sproles was one of the best off-season moves (next to the Ravens getting Steve Smith). I still can't believe the Saints let him get away, he's bailed us out both weeks on offense
