I really look for NO to come out with a purpose after the craptastic showing today. I still don't trust them though.

Well, Cleveland and Cincy will be tied at 2-5 after next week.

Yeah, they'll be amped up for primetime, Halloween night.
They'll show up a different team in that game.
Steelers also got banged up. Keisel was already out and they lost Aaron Smith and LaMarr Woodley.

I agree about New Orleans. Night game at home coming off a somewhat embarrassing loss. The Steelers, healthy or not, might be in trouble.

Smith with a triceps tear won't play next week. What is the status of Woodley?

Any idea how long he's out?

Woodley has a hamstring.
He might be out, too, but I think Worilds getting in there and getting some reps was good.
Smith is just a crusher. They just don't have anyone like him. Whenever he's out teams seem to run on the Steelers.

They play New Orleans on Sunday night and then Cincinnati on Monday night.
Obviously you want to win every game but if they're only going to win one of the next two better that it's Cincinnati.

I really think Cincy may be in a freefall....I look for that game to be a blowout.

Smith might be lost for the season, says Jason La Canfora.
I think I would've rather lost this game.
Supposed to be examined Monday to make sure.

New Orleans on a Sunday night.... On Halloween.
Not a good thing for the Steelers in my opinion. It's already crazy in NOLA for Halloween to begin with.

Definitely hurts ya, but as long as Troy P is back there, still be in the hunt for the playoffs. I love the way Troy plays, but he is a guy that is an injury waiting to happen

Hood and Eason are solid players but they don't have the overall size and strength like Smith to anchor in the run game and free up linebackers.
You'll see more teams run on the Steelers now.
The offense will have to be big this year if they're going to overcome this loss.

The saints running game is pretty dinged up too. Bush and Thomas are out.

I thought the Ravens may have caught a break, as well, with that fumble in overtime.
The runner was stopped and there was a pile of players locked up before the ball came out.
I've seen plays like that called dead.

I thought both calls today were big breaks for both teams. They could have easily, and maybe should have, gone the other way. I'm loving Cincy's gradual collapse though.

Damn torn triceps is not good. That has to hurt like hell.
