Fire Teryl Austin.
#89
When some of the folks who are level headed and football smart on this board, are calling for Austin's head, I begin to wonder how much of that is related to the Pitt loss and the manner of the KC loss. 

I get the implications. Those losses provide evidence that our prospects for post season success may not be good. I think that is the biggest difference from when this Team was 4-1. There was a feeling that we could compete with anyone and go deep in the playoffs. 

But consider the following:
1) We are still on pace for playoffs. Keep in mind that we could still win the first playoff game, depending on seeding and whom we play. 
2) Injuries that have plagued us, can occur to any of these Teams, as well. We can get healthy and see where everyone else is.
3) We have new schemes on both sides of the ball. As the season progresses, familiarity and repetition will fix some issues.
4) We may have to temper expectations - i.e. SB appearance this year. But this can still be a successful year. 
5) Recall our record since 2015 and compare to where we are now.
   
The Defensive scheme is built to the strengths of this Team, which is the secondary and D-Line - in that order. When the line generates pressure, the secondary is supposed to generate turnovers.

Despite tackling issues and interception drops, this defense has won us multiple games this year. If players deliver to the scheme AND the offense keeps their end of the bargain, we will be fine. Have patience.

I really feel that this is an improved Team. The record does not lie. Any win in NFL is a win.

I ask that we view the KC loss (as terrible as it was) as an anomaly. It is only one loss. Steelers gave up 42 points to KC in Heinz field...
