1. Not sneaking up on teams.
2. Getting everyone's best as they "measure" up to a "SB" team.
Aside from some of the issues mentioned along with the OL not gelling, etc., your points are very valid. Both the Steelers and Cowboys came out very very fired up and aggressive with excellent DL's and that's like pouring gasoline on the fire. Both teams tired of their play the past couple seasons and reading all the negative press clippings.
Last week could have easily been a W and even with a L yesterday,I don't believe the fan base would be up in arms like they are at 1-1. Now is no time to panic. Get back to the drawing board and fix some things. Get the W next week and you're no worse than a game back with a couple of home games coming up.
