Knowing Buffalo's draft strategy these past few years, they will not draft a QB in the first round. They will probably try to attain the best player available, like Patrick Peterson or something (I think he is the best prospect right now, right?), and try to get a good QB in the second round. That is the way of the Buffalo.

That would be Andrew Luck IMHO.

I dont usually salivate over Pac 10 passers, but this kid is as close to a Troy Aikman clone as I have seen for a good 20 years.And i watch a LOT of football.

He is already a complete QB. His mechanics and understanding of the game are better than every QB who has been drafted in the first round since Peyton.

He can write his own ticket, depending on Harbaughs plans, but WHEN he chooses to come out, he will be the first player taken.

QB's are always a crapshoot. You never know who is going to succeed and who is not.

Patrick Peterson, as an example (I haven't been keeping up with the draft this season) is a once in a decade type of talent at the CB position. He is probably the surest thing in this draft, and even though the Bills need a QB, they tend to draft at whatever position they do not need (hence CJ Spiller last season, when they already had two pretty good running backs).

Usually I agree, but this kid is Aikman #2, he is that good.

Everyone makes fun of Al Davis and his drafting, but speed Kills !!!!

5-4 baby !!! the division is ours now, plus the divisonal record is a plus <3
Impressive win given we didnt even have Miller and Schilens who is alwas injured and even made JaFatty look decent.

Things can Only get better.
 
how bout dem Brownies? the whole state of Ohio is in an uproar. even though I'm a die-hard Steelers fan (and therefore hated in their eyes), I am happy that Cleveland got a win. for as dismal as their franchise has been, they still have fans that stick it out and love their team. that can't be said for much of the fan bases in the NFL
 
great, just got a depressing thought

the Browns embarrass the Saints two weeks ago, which then leads for a pissed of New Orleans team chomping at the bit to prove themselves against the Big Bad Steelers

the Browns now embarrass the Patriots, who now will be chomping at the bit to prove themselves next weekend against the Steelers

screw you Browns!

I was thinking the same thing.
 
hm, i don't know if that was the right move for dallas --- i think they should have replaced all head positions really -- OC, DC, asst & head coach. i'm sure they have the money.

the collie hit yesterday was intense, i'm glad to hear he's doing alright..
 
Quite interesting at the end of tonight's game but...its the Bungles. One good year does not mean they are a solid team. Thankfully, Carson didnt find TO a bunch until there was a Steelers lead.

Nice Steelers D to close out the game. And Ben had some magical moments too.

6-2 at the halfway point is about as good I expected with Ben's suspension. The Dec 5th showdown vs Ravens is going to be an awesome game.

Much better play calling this game mixing it up a lot better. Dont think i saw them get stuffed on the run on first down until the forth quarter. But its ok when you have a huge lead. They would have beaten the saints easily like that... ya im still ticked off at that one because its a game the steelers had no business losing :!

As Trent Dilfer said.. the steelers won the game in the first half.
They lost the game the first half against the Saints.
 
OC Bruce Arians improved but he was in no way great, either. I had flashbacks to the Bus and the Bill Cowher era, and era that if the Steelers were up by 10 points, it meant that there was no way the other team could win - when Rashard Mendenhall popped off those 6 straight runs

however, Arians tried to run him the seventh time in a row on 3rd and 5, and a tanked Rashard just couldn't get the yard. this was more than obvious to me at the time

also, I feel as if most of our decent (and it was decent, not great or good) offensive performance was due to Big Ben being a veteran QB, noticing that the blitz is coming on the right side or both A-gaps, and then changing the run to the left side. Big Ben's audibles saved our asses most of the time, and this is what you expect from a veteran QB in the NFL. other than that, Big Ben still looks a bit rusty and lost
 
Ya im not sure what was up with that. Mendie should have told them he needed a break or at least the coaches should have given him one. Moore isnt great but he is certainly better than an exhausted Mendie.

I think Ben will be fine. Still a bit rusty but i certainly dont think he was lost. The bengals D did actually play quite well. Ben might actually be peaking right when playoffs come around.

The steelers still need to work on keeping mistakes to a minimum though. Miller and Ward probably wont fumble the rest of the season. Penalty wise they were ok besides the 2 BS calls on Hampton and Taylor.
 
was I the only one of us, out of the Holy BL Steelers Fans Trifecta, that cringed at that last play where Harrison and Taylor broke up Palmer-to-Shipley - because I thought there would be a flag? I was literally sweating like a junkie in church for a hot minute
