Adam Schefter answers readers' questions nearly every day in his blog. On Thursday, Adam turns his attention to questions about the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns. Have a query of your own? Submit it here.
Q: Hey Adam, huge (and disappointed) Steelers fan here. Can you really blame all of these losses and struggles only on Troy Polamalu? While our secondary has been giving up numerous big plays, I just don't think you can merely place the blame on Troy. There's plenty of blame to go around (Ike Taylor, William Gay, the pass rush and even coaching). We've underperformed all season, and besides having a healthy Polamalu, what do you think needs to happen for us to get back on top?
