KC @ PITT Primer
This game rivals the Donk game in terms of “underdogness”. While the Steelers are 1-3, they’re still the defending SB champs and loaded with talent. The onus will yet again be on the Chiefs D to keep them in the game, and the O will have to pull some magic out of its butt to score on the Steeler’s tough defense. Our injury list looks like the inpatient roster at a MASH unit. Some stats:
KC Score O – 20 ppg (13) vs PITT Score D – 19 ppg (13)…PITT adv w/homefield KC Rush O – 106 ypg (18) vs PITT Rush D – 89 ypg (10)...PITT adv KC Pass O – 194 ypg (20) vs PITT Pass D – 218 ypg (22)...wash w/homefield PITT Score O – 15 ppg (27) vs KC Score D – 13 ppg (6)... KC adv PITT Rush O – 103 ypg (22) vs KC Rush D – 107 ypg (18)...wash PITT Pass O – 179 ypg (24) vs KC Pass D – 148 ypg (4)… KC adv Turnovers: PITT – 7 INTs & 3 fumbles in 4 games (-3) KC – 1 INT & 6 fumbles in 4 games (0) BIG Homefield Advantage: STEELERS PITT Key Players (against Phins, Jags, Bengals, & Chargers): QB Roethlesberger – 569 yds, 54% comp., 0 TDs, 7 INTs RB Parker – 325 yds, 3.8 ypc, 3 TDs LB Foote – 21 tackles, 3 sacks, 1 FF LB Haggans – 22 tackles, 3 sacks, 1 INT, 1 FF Key PITT injuries: LB Harrison (ankle) – Q. Steeler’s last game: After going up 10-0, the Chargers’ tenacious D shut Roethlesberger down and dominated the Steelers in a game that wasn’t as close as the score. KC Key Players (against Bengals, Donks, 49ers, and Cards): QB Huard – 769 yds, 70% comp., 5 TDs, 0 INTs RB Johnson – 331 yds, 3.7 ypc, 2 TDs DEs Allen & Hali, secondary and LBs P Colquitt Key KC injuries (besides Green): RB Bennett (hammy) – O, WR Hall (hip) – Q, LT Turley (back) – Q, CB Sapp (knee) – O, OT Svitek (knee) - O. Chiefs’ last game: fueled by the defense, the Chiefs came from behind against a surprisingly dominating Cards performance and won by a FG in AZ. Colquitt must shape a long playing field for the Steelers’ O. Chiefs could really use a score by Hall/Webb, because opposing teams are stacking the box to neutralize our run game with great success. Somehow, the O-line MUST establish a semblance of a running game against a stifling PITT run D. Having said all that, this game is winnable for the Chiefs. |
