Steel curtain.

So the steelers D is lookin so sexy this year. We're winning without a consistent offense and although cutting it a bit close sometimes, are still chuggin along. I say not even the best offense will put up real points against the steelers

not so sure about that. Remember this is the same defense as last year that sans Polamalu turned really crappy really fast. Any defense so dependant on one guy covering up the others mistakes isnt really that great.

This is the defense that still held the best running games to almost nothing. Even without Troy. The secondary suffered, but thats because theyre star safety was out. The ravens D without Ed reed almost suffers as much, although they have a betters secondary

Ed Reed missing time only diminishes our turnover ratio, the defense without him is statistically the best in multiple categories and oh yeah shut down the Steelers' today.

its only 4 games into the season, still a long way to go.

It's an impressive start, especially in a league with no clear-cut favorite to win it all. But don't book your ticket to Dallas just yet. We'll have to see if Big Ben can help the offense to roll and if that loss to Baltimore at home is going to hurt later on. Not to mention 'ol poofy-hair himself has to stay off the injury list.

After the Bye this week, the Steelers host the Browns, go to Miami, then New Orleans, then Cincinnati before heading home to host the Patriots. If your guys are 6-3 or better by the end of that stretch, I think they'd be a pretty powerful team to contend with.
