THIS first game against gang green is going to tell us how tough this team is.I have my doubts about this year.Talk about a brutal schedule coming out of the gate.I mean,it doesn't get any worse than having to go to NY and play them on 9-11.I feel as if we are going to get hammered.Too many new players that are unproven and we still have Margus Hunt.I mean.REALLY. If we are able to whipp the jets,I for one will be so stoked.I just do not see it,and you just know the stinkin stoolers are going to kill us the second game and we will be back of them by two games and will never recover.I could easily see them taking the division.they have a different mindset up there at three rivers than our coaches do.If we fail to make the post-season,marv will be gone.
Cautiously optimistic here but all we can go on is franchise history until they prove otherwise!
