Nobody has been impressed with the Steelers because quite frankly, they haven't been impressive. They're inconsistent, they don't seem as dominating defensively and their issues are front and center (i.e. their lack of running game, the turnovers, injuries, etc). But they weren't that impressively last year either and they wound up winning the Super Bowl. I'm not saying history will repeat itself, but every time somebody says that Pittsburgh wasn't that impressive, it's usually a game that they won. They find a way. Nothing.

They could not stop Joshua Cribbs last week. They committed 4 turnovers. The Browns ended up having a so-so game against the Steelers. By Browns standards, of course. Barely escaped overtime with... the Lions. I mean, the Lions are now America's sweetheart, but they still blow. Y'know? Also, the Titans' recent "loss" to the Patriots makes the Steelers' 13-10 win against them look epically bad. I know it was week 1, but they've had time to live it down and the only impressive victory they've had since then came against the Chargers. What am I missing here? I know it’s just me, but I haven’t been super-impressed by the Steelers yet.
