Danny's .02:

1. No Beast
Thomas the Train is going to have to shoulder the load. I've been a big fan all year- he hits the holes like bolt of lightening and while not as brutally strong as the Beast, he's a punishing runner with receiving upside. He will be a key to the game.

2. Center of Attention
Our line seems to be much better with Patrick Lewis. Hopefully the continued growth of the line as a whole is on display as I feel TOP will be a big deal vs the Pitt offense that can move down field in a hurry.

3. Pennies on the Graham
At this point all I want from him are a few big third downs and some red zone presence. Sad... i would rather have a pro-bowl guard or right tackle than this guy.



Predictions-
Seattle 30 Steelers 24

Great win. Sucks to lose Graham, especially since he showed up to play, but I have faith that the blocking will be better at the very least with more Luke Wilson

It's funny how much Russell & the passing game has improved since they replaced Nowak as a starter. A little protection & experience can make the difference between W/L's. We would have been much better off, if the coaches had acknowledged this during training camp & not gotten cute with the changes on the offensive line.
