Harrison being out is actually huge for us. -Steelers D doesn't rally around Harrison the way Baltimore does with Lewis (in fact Harrison isn't really the type of guy who communicates much period).

I don't think it matters that Harrison is out. The sad part is that the Steelers will do the same things that the Ravens and Cardinals did and our offense still won't be able to stop/beat the blitz. I don't think they can fix the blitz problem this year.

But, it's good that we are facing that type of D because GB uses it too. It's a lot of prep work and practice in order for the O to combat this kind of blitz properly. Will they do that? I'm sure they will go over Blitz protection, but I think AZ was a serious trap.
I think they will attack by both ground and air. I expect to see more of Hunter n Walker with more passes to the slot.
At least I hope we do.

I hope you're right but even if they fix the blitz protection problems there is the red zone issue...they even struggled against the Rams in the red zone

I agree; it seems that for every horrible offensive/line showing, they come back the following week (win or lose) and play stronger and more focused.
Hell, it's f**king MNF, we play at an intense/high level of competition when it comes to these games.

I think you guys might be jinxing this game.
People were calling a blowout vs the Cards last week.

49ers- 6
Steelers- 24
We will still see a ravens/ cardinals type D nd the O will struggle. Harbaugh doesn't know how to fix it or doesn't want to
