"What's the deal..?"

"...with the Steelers?"

I've been hearing this question a lot lately.

Yesterday, I provided the following answer to a friend via email:

"The deal with the Steelers is lack of depth in the perennially bad positions, while the best players in some of the historically more solid positions are older and slowing down. Plus shortened training camp really hurt us; things were by all accounts really unfocused and disorganized in Latrobe (coaching weakness?). So...I don't know...Plus Tomlin looks like he's really taken to the new Pgh cuisine, maybe indulging in the offerings at the new How Lee a little too frequently. And somehow Dick still looking like he could slay a lioness without need for vision correction."

What do you guys think?
