What we should be discussing is how our Offense can move the chains and score points as that has been the biggest issue for us this season against the Steelers.

If not for the play of the offense then we would have won that 2nd game, if AJM doesn't throw the pick 6 and doesn't throw the other INT that led to a short field and an easy TD for Williams, then we win 20 -19.

Our defense is fine.

What we need to do, is take a page out of the Ravens' offensive playbook and throw to our RBs in the middle of the field.  

Mallett was dumping off to the RBs all game long and had a lot of success.  Kyle J. and Allen both had 5 catches for 55 and 35 yards respectively.  Watching that game, you could see the RBs going in as if to block and then sneaking out and catching the pass.  In the 2nd half, the Steelers adjusted for this and the Ravens then started going medium range on the field and only going long to keep the Steelers honest.

 get the ball to two players and we will do well Green and Eiffert.. with maybe a 3rd in Gio outside.
