Defense is just going to have to step it up, plain and simple. If this team is a true Super Bowl contender, they are going to need to beat Shittsburgh at least once this season and maybe twice (see 2/3).
As for total yards, the defense has not done well but there is more to stopping the run than yards.. We have only given up 3 rushing touchdowns (2 to running backs), we did shut down Baltimore totally running the ball. Last week after the 1st big carry, McCoy averaged around 3.5 on 16 carries.. decent job for the defense so im not sold that we are terrible in the run department and to me Pittsburgh is the team that has to show that they are a Super Bowl contender.. what have they done over the last three years besides make the playoffs once and lose at home to Baltimore ?
