Man why are these boards so slow compared to last season? I figured with covid lockdowns the forums would be more active since everyone has less to do and would BS about football more

Didn't you hear? No one watches the NFL anymore. Liberal SJWs ruined it. True Americans don't watch socialist pansy-ball!
Just wait until the Steelers lose 1 game. The B&M crowd is always louder than the happy with a win crowd.
I honestly believe some people are happier when the team loses because it allows their pre-formed opinions to be "right".Originally Posted by El-Gonzo Jackson

I'm thrilled they're 3-0 and this looks like a 12-4 or 13-3 team if they can stay healthy.
Yes, 3-0 is great, but just keep it in perspective that the combined record for our opponent so far is 0-9.
...and I know "any given Sunday" and all. The Texans are a decent team that's played a tough schedule, and was the biggest worry for me so far.
Next week @ a 3-0 Titans will be a tough game.

Wait, we "only" won by 7 vs an 0-3 Texans team. Shouldn't Tomlin be fired by now?
isn't it amazing the different one guy makes from being 0-3 to 3-0
how sweet it is
Re: 3-0 is a great feeling
For some more perspective if the Steelers were 0-3 than their opponents would be a combined 3-6, which still wouldn't be that impressive.
So, yeah...
Nonetheless, I am happy with where they are at.
This game will be no gimme. Henry is tough and Tannehill is playing pretty well so far. The Eagles after that isn’t going to be a picnic either.

Well, winning the games we're supposed to win is a welcome change! Also the Texans are nowhere near as bad as their record says, they had a brutal schedule to start the season. The Ravens and the defending champs
Sunday's game will gauge where both teams really are. It should be noted that the Titans have won their 3 games by a COMBINED 6 points against teams with a combined record of 1-8. It's an opportunity for both teams to pick up a statement win
We may not be a top tier team but we're easily a 1a team. The nicest thing about being 3-0 is that we are winning games we SHOULD be winning. It's refreshing to not blow games that we SHOULD be winning although we tried really hard against Denver to lose one!
That said next week on the road against another 3-0 team that went to the AFC title game last year should a tough test!

Agreed on the Eagles, no matter how bad they are (and they are bad this year) they always seem to beat us. They play at the 49ers next week and easily could be 0-3-1 and very desperate.
Only 3 times Tomlin starts 3-0 ... But that only happens to Bill Cowher once his team started 3-0 (it was in his first year) who is completely crazy!
The last time the Steelers started the 4-0 season was in 1979 or 41 years ago!
The schedule was easy and I was not happy with the way they played against Denver, especially in the second half, but they were better against the Texans, which is encouraging.
The way I look at is they beat the teams they should beat so far and, I'll take 3-0 anytime. Tougher games are coming up.

I honestly think Houston is a better team than the Titans, if their schedules were swapped , so would there records. We need to stop Henry and force Tanny to beat us.
The Texans schedule is a big reason why they are 0-3 but the Titans are a much complete team and they have a better head coach than the Texans
We need to contain the run against the titans, but not at all costs since Tanny is one of the best in the league (in stats) for playaction and YPA since last year.
