Offense... Rinse & repeat PG1's gameplan, but let Conner & JuJu have a series. Ben didn't play until PG3 last year, so I'm not expecting him to play. Also, as we've been discussing, if Dobbs shows out again it may set the stage for some trade offers. Rudolph & Hodges are playing well enough to cement QB2 & QB3, respectively. Hoping to see a rebound performance from the O-line as a unit. Specifically Chuks. May see the starting unit get a series as well.
Defense... All eyes are on Bush. The KC offense is riddled with speed, so what better team to showcase his abilities against!? Would like to see a better showing from the secondary, but expecting them to get slaughtered without Haden, Davis & Hilton against their 1st team O.
Who's hurting?

Who's hurting?
- Haden is still dealing with his ankle contusion, and no timetable set for his return (although Tomlin made it sound minor).
- CSW is dealing with a hammy injury which can be tricky. Would hate to see him rushed back just to aggravate the injury, but time is running out for him to make an impact to the 53. Steelers still have options though. Hoping they hang up CSW on the NFL's IPPP again (which affords them an additional PS slot). He's still considered a raw project, but has shown decent blocking abilities. Steelers could explore trade or acquisition of a TE after PG4 when rosters have to officially be trimmed from 91 to 53.
- All signs point to Davis returning to the field today after dealing with an open wound on his hand (finger). Don't know if they will rush him back with his roster spot being pretty much locked in. They will likely continue to let Dangerfield, Allen & Kelly duke it out.
