Advice to Steelers Coaching Staff

DEFENSE: Let's face it, NE coaches are smarter than ours. The Pats game plan is 80% pass vs PIT, short passes 8-10 yards - timing routes, with quick receivers and a 2 second QB release time. Our corners play 12 yards off the receivers. It is mathematically impossible to get pressure on Brady with the front seven, given a 2 second release. It is equally impossible to prevent the short pass completion with that much cushion. Wake up, guys, NE has done this 6 games in a row and will continue until you stop it. Also, is it too much to ask that someone be assigned to always iput at least one body on Gronk at all times.

OFFENSE: If you want to know how to use Dri Archer, study Edelman. Also, when inside the red zone, the field is condensed, so spread the formation to create running / passing lanes. Quit trying to pound the ball up the middle, that is the easiest play to stop on a condensed field. You can put 5 of the fastest, quickest receivers in football on the field at the same time. No one can match up to that on timing routes.

This is football 101 and the PIT coaches are flunking the IQ test..
