San Antonio Spurs coverage at Project Spurs

Teams are scoring far more than that in the fourth quarter alone this season.In fact, the Steelers have given up 43 points in the final quarter 22 to Green Bay, 21 to Oakland over their last two home games. Overall, the Steelers' 121 points allowed in the fourth quarter are the second-most in the league. And, unfortunately, it has only been getting worse, as evidenced by a third of that being given up in the past two weeks.The Steelers also hold the title of allowing the most touchdowns in the final 15 minutes this season, at 11.On top of that, they aren't forcing turnovers. They haven’t intercepted a pass in six games, and no Pittsburgh cornerback has picked off a pass all season.The Steelers recently acquired Joey Galloway, a wide receiver.

Maybe they should focus on getting a cornerback, or another safetyPittsburgh will obviously benefit from the return of Troy Polamalu, who has been out all but five games this season, but, in the meantime, I certainly hope Mike Tomlin has something up his sleeve to help turn our defensive problems around.I have not given up hope that the Steelers can gain their seventh win. Everything that has needed to happen to keep them alive has happened. All of the pieces for an end-of-season miracle seem to be falling into place.Don't be surprised to see Polamalu out on the field very soon.
