  1. Ok here me out, special teams. 6'10+, really long arms, very nice vertical jump. FG / PAT blocker.

    Why? The best scorer on any team is the kicker…..if you could bend those 50 yard + attempts down and force punts instead, that's a big win.

  2. They need to scheme some Rb screens, some swing passes, and start off hitting receivers for 5-10 yard quick routes before slinging it. Steelers are bad against the go route, & as long as we can score outside the red zone we will be fine. Steelers are too good in the red zone and our offense is bad there. Luckily the Texans defense drags great offenses down to their offenses level. That’s the goal.

  3. Ain’t worried about the defense. All signs point to “they will do their thing.”But the MAIN X FACTOR is our king Fairbairn. The offense is what it is. Unless Nick saved all his best plays for this playoff run… but the fact is our king has put up numbers. Just hoping he can stay consistent with the weather conditions and on grass. But I got faith

  4. Imo, Stroud has many chances to run but instead decides to scramble and still get away the pass. Has resulted in many a dropped pass or just ball thrown away 🤷
    I think the hesitency to run himself might be him being afraid to get another concussion. He defo needs to get rid of that "fear" now to be best version of himself in Playoffs 🫡🤘
