I don't think Henne has been that bad, I do not know the extent of his injury but I hope he is available soon, unless Thigpen really starts to light shit up out there.

Please no Jamarcus Russell. We need QB's that do real opiates like Brett Favre. A little oxycodone and you can play out of your fucking mind. Codeine syrup has too much sugar for a football player and will not get you high enough.

Henne's out for the season.

We don't have much of a choice. Our 3rd string is all of a sudden our 1st string and we need 2 backups.

It's almost to the point where they'll hold tryouts for QB.

I LOVE that evey1 is still asleep on the Patriots! Watch out! Last time that happened they went and rolled off 3 Super Bowls in 4 years! They may have traded Moss, but have you seen them since, I'll admit last week vs. Cleveland was a disgrace but I'm pretty sure it was a letdown/look ahead to Pittsburgh this week. They WILL BEAT the Steelers this week, IT IS A GUARANTEE AND YOU HEARD IT FIRST FROM ME!

Did you have money on this game tonight? ;)

They (Patsies) got the wake up call last week after the Brownie beatdown but they are not winning a SB this year. Sorry.

Unfortunately, what we discussed earlier in this thread has come to pass. This game is a stinker for a Steeler fan.
 
it happens. but that's why I don't come into threads and guarantee victories, as our new friend just blatantly did. Steelers have a lot of work to do, we'll be seeing ya in the playoffs (as usual)

Im not so sure about the playoffs. I really do think they are going to go into the same mid season slump they did last year and miss em.

This game really wasnt much different than any other game they have played this year. They really have not played top tier football since been has been back. They beat the bungles and a browns team that was just starting to put the peaces together. Lucked out against miami.

Im sorry but the writting is on the wall for the steelers. Going 3-1 without ben got them a little bit over-rated.

sorry man, i couldn't resist :)

we're still waiting to hear from battleco to see if he, in common with many football players, misunderstands the meaning of the word 'guarantee'.

alasdair
 
they just looked... so mediocre. I don't know what else to say

I guess teams finally have the formula to beat the Steelers defense. rushing is futile, so don't do that. pass 30 times in a row, usually never downfield, but mostly 5-15 yard gainers

I think that teams have had this formula for quite a while.

It's called the West Coast Offense.

It's just that 29 of the 31 teams the Steelers have to worry about have neither Peyton Manning nor Tom Brady.

The Steelers are very good, in my opinion.

But based on what we saw last night, the Patriots are clearly better.

And don't sleep on the Colts!

Peyton Manning is so great, he and 52 high school girls could make the play-offs.

And he and 52 (mostly) pedestrian NFL players just might sneak up and win the Super Bowl.

We shall see.
 
it's going to be interesting watching the rest of the season.

there isn't one team that stands out to me as completely dominate.

Its been their Achille's heel since Cowher was coaching. I love Dick LeBeau but its hard to defend against a dink/dunk offensive strategy. If the pass rush doesnt get there, the D is exposed and that is Belicheat's excellent gameplan. The good thing is that there are few QBs talented enough to be patient and work underneath the whole game.

I will be shocked if they do not pummel the Raiders into salt next weekend.

Clearly better? It was one game with a few intangibles on both sides that played into it. The main one being that Belicheat rarely loses 2 games in a row. If they meet in the playoffs, I give the edge to Tomlin because they will have the experience whereas the Patsies are younger, especially on their D.

As a Steeler fan, I think the team needed a taste of humble pie. If they thought they were going home after 2 tough road games and have New England rollover after getting humbled by Cleveland, they were dead wrong. I'm thinking there will be a much more focused and invigorated Steeler team next week vs Oakland.
 
I'm not too worried about the Colts in the playoffs. although an excellent team, I think Peyton slips up in the plaoffs. I wouldn't call him a choke artist, because he has won a Super Bowl, but he is soo talented that I think it's almost a crime that he only has won one SB

but the Patriots are another monster altogether. while the Steelers usually beat the Colts, the Patriots usually beat the Steelers. Pittsburgh has the talent, but nowhere near better coaches than New England. as much I as I hate Tom Brady, he is good

it's just life every year in the AFC. expect the Steelers, the Ravens, the Colts, and the Patriots to look to kick your ass. especially in the playoffs

the NFC has no idea what this is like ;)
 
Not to say I told you so, but I DID! I believe I am owed a couple of apologies, as my Pats pretty much dismantled the Steelers, but if you guys are sore losers , whatever! At least you may start to realize we have a pretty good team.

BTW, I'm a disabled vet and back in school, so I do wager on games when I see a good matchup, as I did last night. I think Steelers D is very good, but offense is erratic and Pats D has been improving all year. Like I said last week was an aboration, they were due for a letdown, and looking ahead to last night. Plus the offense is a machine now w 2 stong TE's, great O-line, 2 very versatile running backs who are great pass recievers, and still a pretty good recieving corp.And Tom Brady is new Joe Montana w the slants and short routes that are able to hurt teams like the Steelers and Ravens w prototpical solid d's. And Welker and Brach are suited to those types of routes, so it just seemed like an easy call to me. But I respect the Steelers, think they r solid, and I think they were def overloookin Pats as many teams(Ravens,Chargers)) have done so far So, if you still wanna talk shit, well you'll just look stupid, and you wont see me guarantee victories often, just when I have a strong feeling. I like Philly tonight, but wouldnt go so far as to guarantee. And its rare I bet on my own team, dont bet w heart, but line was inflated=due to Moss leaving, Pitt at home, and Pats loss last week, so I just saw all the ducks lined up u might say, and in general, Pats dominate the Steelers.(history as of late)

why would we apologize? we never said the Steelers would win. I've been a sports fan all my life, I never expect victories. I try not to revel too much in wins (unless it's the SuperBowl, and we have 6) and I try not to get too down on losses (unless it's against the Browns)

you got beat by the Browns

sorry, but that's hilarious. now you know what it's like to be in a division where even the bottom feeder can kick your ass. but alas, you have the Bills
 
I see, figured. U just said big bad steelers would stom on tom lady and patriots, I see how u do. Good luck the rest of the year.

** and its the NFL, so dont b surprised when u guys lose to an awful team too, it'll happen. And btw, those Browns took the Jets to OT

speaking of the AFC North cellar dwellers, looks like the Cleveland Browns are going to pull it off against the New York Jets. this has to be the toughest conference in all of the NFL

what a great day just veg out and watch pro football

These were your exact words, btw. At least be a stand up guy and admit when u were wrong. I say Philly will win tonight, easily. Look for Vick n Jackson to hook up at least 2x. Of course if I'm wrong, I'll at least com back tomorrow and admit I was wrong.
