I pin this one on the Steelers D. Other than Troy the D-backs have forgoten how to cover the pass. Deshea Tonsend is still decent but his years are catching up to him. Ike Taylor hasnt been the same since our super bowl win 2 years ago. and Bryant Mcfadden hasnt progressed like I thought he would. Dont even get me started on Anthony Smith yes he made the big INT yesterday but he also got burned twice for TDs. Thats 4 TDs hes given up in the past 2 weeks!!! Yesterday even as bad as they played the D had a tie ball game in the 4th quarter with plenty of time to get the ball back. The momentum had shifted in the Steelers favor and the crowd was behind them, all they had to do was stop the Jags and they couldnt do it. IMO we are an O-lineman and a couple of D-backs away from the Super Bowl.

another thing, if Faneca jets, then we're gonna have somewhat of a crisis situation as far as the O-line goes. I completely agree that we are a couple of d-backs away though..I would also like to see them run the ball more. I am starting to have some fits at this pass every down stuff to..They have what? 6 or 7 rushing touchdowns?????? Willie Parker has 1200 yards and 2 rushing touchdowns. 2!! Im just having a problem with the offensive selection Period. Big Ben has had a very nice season, dont get me wrong, but Parker needs more than 14 carries, Davenport had 2 or 3, and Big Ben had 2. My point is, that on a 30 degree day, on a snow covered field, your offense, which has ran the ball very well when given the oppurtunity, needs more than 18 or 20 carries...and when your QB is injured, with a bad throwing shoulder nonetheless, on a cold, WET, muddy and snow covered day, throwing the football 33 times dont make one bit of sense to me.
