A lethal concoction of statistics in the Steelers’ favor makes Week 8 worrisome

Coach Tomlin said we can’t live in our fears. But the more he says it, the more I do it. When it comes to games the Steelers look like they should win handily, that is when I get the most nervous. I prefer The Steelers being the underdog. They seem to rise to the occasion. But when so many numbers are coming together to show why the Steelers should defeat the Miami Dolphins on Monday night, it makes me think that too much of a good thing is probably too good to be true.

In this weeks installment of Crunching the Numbers, we’ll take at some of the Pittsburgh Steelers numbers on various topics such as coming off the bye week, playing at home on Monday night football, being favored by two touchdowns, and facing Dolphins’ quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.
