12-3 week so far. Stupid Seahawks. Certainly didn’t see Pittsburgh losing to Las Vegas or the Saints getting curb stomped, either.

I was hopeful for the Steelers before the game coming off their upset win over Buffalo last week.  But I wasn't surprised at the outcome once I saw that by the 4th quarter, Najee Harris had only been given the ball 9 times (he finished the game with 10 carries total!).  The play-calling is atrocious.  The whole reason they spent a first round draft choice on a RB, was so that Big Ben wouldn't have to throw the ball 40+ times per game and then defenses would have to respect the Steelers ground game.  Yet, 2 games into the season, it's the same horrible game management as last year, despite having a new OC.  Harris got 10 carries to Ben's 40 pass attempts.  The O-line may be a patch work group that isn't opening many holes, but 10 handoffs to your prized halfback is not even trying.
