So your opponent will have to game plan against it instead of what you are going to actually use?

Very interesting, and it wouldn’t surprise me at all. Why use stuff you don’t need?

When I saw them play the Steelers in the playoffs, I thought they did a few new things, and it made me wonder if that was true.

Welcome to GoingDeep, I believe it is okay to speak for Rebecca when I tell you the only requirement for commenting is to remain friendly, anything extra is a plus.

What is your opinion of the Steelers current secondary?

My glass is half-full, but I need to be shown that the present talent, meets the expectations we have for them. I am curious as to whether Burns and Haden will play more man coverage than we have seen in the past. Cornerbacks playing 10 yards off their man has been my main complaint for several years now. If we have the talent, will the coaches change the scheme?

p.s. Grammarly helps me be articulate and it is a free download for this type of application, would be a pleasure to help if you want it.

I have thought since the begining of training camp, “What great fortune our Steelers have with a fifth preseason gamenoone else gets” Though mythoughts dwelled more on the benefits to our young secondary. I’ve had a fixation on theinadequacies of our secondary ever since I was disappointed by not signing Nnamdi Asomugha.

Anyways back from my tangent, Speculation can be fun from someone as articulate and reasoned as Fever, Homer, and our esteemed host Rebecca. Perhaps on my best days I can uphold such high standards.

Anyways back from my tangent. I do not think Haley and/or Munchak Tomlin is genius enough to use players, formations, and play calls to set up a strategy for the subsequent week ormonth. Rather I do speculate Haley and/or Munchac Tomlin are genius enough in a postgame analysis to brainstorm ideas to exploit how a defense might defend thegamejust concluded

I trust your ideas over my own, dear miss, you are a genius. And once again are correct, you might wait until after the Jaguars game, then Lord Willing, the Steelers will have logged three consecutive victories over teams “they were supposed to beat.” Hopefully, in combination with your article, we can bust this myth once and for all. At least in the small corner of Steelers Nation we can influence.

Thanks, fever. I might do so in a few weeks. First I have to see how they play against the Bears LOL. I threw this together rather quickly (or as quickly as possible given all the numbers to collect and count) but I might try using some other ways to look at it, and maybe even make a separate category for 8-8 seasons : ) If you have any ideas for different ways to evaluate the information let me know.
