He will need the Steelers D to wreck havoc this week.
Interestingly enough. While the Steelers Defense ranks just tied (Vikings) for 17th in points allowed? that will still be the toughest Defense Chicago has faced this year. We can see what a Vikings pedestrian Defense did last week to Chicagos Powerful Offense. It took Chicago every last second to muster 19 points. From Pittsburgh on out the Defenses Chicago faces will become more normalized to good. Still no top tier units, but all average to above average.
Pitt (17th) Philly (8th) GB (7th) Cleveland (18th) GB (7th) SF (13th) Detroit (10th)

Chicago’s Real-Time SOV of beating bottom dweller teams ranks #31 leaguewide at a combined .279 Win record. The average ranked Defenses Chicago has played to date have a combined points allowed ranking of 27th. Going forward and starting with Pittsburgh, Chicago faces a group of Defenses with an average combined ranking of 11th

Part of their winning even against some of these feeders has been ST. They beat the Raiders with a blocked kick. They ran a kick off back against the Vikings and Santos went 4-5 on FGs. They also have forced turnovers. Their one really bad game was against Detroit. And the Lions can do that if they are on their game.

He got CLOBBERED on the sack (+ scoop and score TD) that gave him that busted nose. I was shocked he came back into the game after that point

I caught the presser after the game. He was super surly with the reporters, who didn't back off with some hard questions. He also threw his team under the bus saying they didn't practice well and weren't on the same page during plays, etc. A-Rod even gave a "come on, you expect me to answer that?" As well as a few expletives along the way. Tensions are high in Steeler country and Rodgers has once again become the center of drama for a football team. Tomlin, who looks like he has aged 10 years, even stormed out of the presser after he was asked about his future in Pittsburgh.

This one shocked me yesterday. I haven't paid a ton of attention to the steelers much this year but he looked to have aged a TON from what I remembered lol

Yup, he's a lot bigger and the bags under his eyes were popping out.

This is Tomlin before they signed Rodgers: :coffee:
