Steelers @ Denver: It's Over except for the quick hits
That, my friends, it what 9-7 looks like. Sure, there is no sense in panicking after one loss, but the defense is older and slower; and history is likely to judge the Super Bowl loss to Green Bay as the beginning of the end for a great group of football players.
If Demaryius Thomas plays the Steelers a few more times he may end up a first ballot hall-of-famer.
Many will point to the five sacks of Ben, but with two of those coming on the Steelers' final possession I'm willing to give the offensive line pretty decent marks considering that Denver's defense is probably the best the Steelers will see this season outside of their own division (and yes, I am including the Jets in that).
Other than a dropped pass I loved Jonathan Dwyer's performance (9 carries, 43 yards).
For one night at least, Kennan Lewis was not the answer at cornerback.
Finally, time of possession is overrated.
