Steelers in ’07

Strengths: After disappointing year following NFL title, team is on mission under new coach Mike Tomlin. QB Ben Roethlisberger is healthy and has strong receivers and runners around him. S Troy Polamalu is most feared DB in league. Team looks hungry.

Weaknesses: How will change in coaching affect them? Blocking is questionable, so are special teams.

Players to watch: TE Heath Miller, Polamalu.

Biggest change: Tomlin replacing longtime coach Bill Cowher,

Schedule key: Closing stretch against Cincinnati, New England, Jacksonville, St. Louis and Baltimore.

Bottom line: The most-balanced team in a tough division, and they were embarrassed by flop in 2006.
