Week 2 - Sep 16 - NYJ

[Robotman]

JESTS-JESTS-JESTS

Get yer fancy footwear ready!

[jonzr]

So, you think the secondary shits itself again when Tebow is under center?  I'm serious.  At least they'll have Clark back there, but if he insists on kill shots over tackles and Troy bites on run fakes, could be long day.  The JESTS lit up Beefalo.

[Finnegans Wake]

Wow, Steelers -6?  Kiss of fucking death.

(And Ravens +2.5 at Eagles?  Really?  On what fucking planet?)

Wow, Steelers -6?  Kiss of fucking death.

(And Ravens +2.5 at Eagles?  Really?  On what fucking planet?)

Vegas is just daring the public to take the teams that crushed in Week 1. 

:suspicious:

Both picks scream take the Jets and Ravens...that why I'll take the Steelers and Eagles.

[Finnegans Wake]

IMO Steelers have a better chance to turn it around than the Iggles.  Put another way:  Iggles on road vs. Cleve D <<< Iggles at home v. Ravens D?  Not seeing it. I do think there was sort of an element of Jets : Bills :: droogs : drunk guy getting shit kicked outta him.

[aj_law]

Teams that start the season 0-2 make the playoffs about 12% of the time.

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.

[Finnegans Wake]

This won't help.

[SCacalaki]

Glad to have Clark back this week.  Mundy is a better (keep in context) SS (that said, he still sucks) than FS.  If he has a strength, it is playing in the box

[aj_law]

My guess is that both guys give it a go at about...ah, 75%.

[jonzr]

Just heard Reavis will be out for the Jets, so that'll help a little. 

[aj_law]

Just heard Reavis will be out for the Jets, so that'll help a little. 

And Dustin Keller.

Kyle Wilson will be in for Revis.

[jonzr]

Steelers settle for 3 on the opening drive and the Jets answer with an all-too-easy TD drive.  Yeah, it was aided by a stupefying PI call against Ike for Holmes.  But still. The defense was shredded there.

[jonzr]

And another FG for the Steelers.  *yawn*

[jonzr]

Timmons, you stupid fuck. 

[jonzr]

Had 'em stopped so what does Timmons do?  Helmet to helmet on the QB.  Nah, they'll never call that.  Stupid fuck.

[jonzr]

Holmes is eating Ike's lunch, that's two PI calls.

[Joetorious]

Pedestrian performance on all fronts thus far.

[Pain]

AB was held and took a helmet to helmet shot, out of bounds and no flag in sight.

[Joetorious]

Agree, Pain. Egregious no-call.

[jonzr]

Dwyer is making me forget about that other guy who's averaging about 1.3 ypc.

[jonzr]

Can we move on from the Discount Double Check, please?  Fer chrissakes, it's been two years.  Well, another SB winner anyways.

[jonzr]

Loved that shot of Ryan on the sidelines after the TD to HEEEEAAAAAAT.  Pure disgust on his face.

[Big Virgil]

Nice catch by Cotchery  to set up the Miller TD.

[Pain]

Dwyer is making me forget about that other guy who's averaging about 1.3 ypc.

True dat.

[jonzr]

In retrospect, it could easily be 13-0.  Both scoring drives for the Jests were aided by either bad calls and/or mistakes by the Steelers D after apparently earning a stop.  But if I couldn't bitch and second-guess all game, where's the fun?

That movie, The Master, looks interesting.  I hear it's loosely based on L. Ron Hoover and the First Church of Appliantology.

[jonzr]

Holy clam chowder, the Patsies got knocked off by the Cards!?  Wow, didn't see that one coming.

[jonzr]

Great spot!  Steelers got lucky on that one, picked up a good 1.5 ft on the spot.  And the foot man is challenging, he'll probably win.

[jonzr]

The defense has adjusted nicely, the Jets have done jack since early on and San Antonio has been blanketed by Ike after those first two catches and penalties.

[jonzr]

Oh, Clark absolutely separated Holmes from the ball.  BAM! How was there a flag there.  WTF?  PI on Taylor?  That's two bogus calls on Ike for Holmes.  Jebus, that's just awful.  I can see how a ref could miss a call, but how do they see something that isn't there?

[jonzr]

Oh, there's Redman!  1st down!

[jonzr]

Time to use some clock, run to win.

[jonzr]

It's about time the Steelers get a call.  That guy was all over Heat before the ball arrived.  1st down!  ROLL THE CLOCK!

[jonzr]

Gotta hand it to Simms on that call, "Nice catch by Antonio Brown, hardest working player on the Steelers team."

[jonzr]

Another tough run by Redman, ROLL THE CLOCK!

[jonzr]

Offense has looked pretty good on the whole.  I love the Todd Haley effect.  Possession, clock, running game, etc.  He's bringing everything that that other fucker, inexplicably, didn't.

Tough running by Dwyer.

[jonzr]

Redman heard about my criticism earlier, somebody must have tweeted him.

[jonzr]

Sanchez, you've been SACKED.  Game.  Over.

[jonzr]

[pensodyssey]

Tremendous win by a one semi-healthy team over another semi-healthy team.  I never thought I'd see a season where we actually need a bye in week 4 to get healthy.

[Big Virgil]

How about a long drive late in the 4th to not only kill the clock, but actually score a TD?  Holy Fuk, that hasn't happened in a while.  10+ mins.

[leighclay]

Yeah, I was hating that when the schedule first came out, but I'm actually pretty happy about that now....

[jonzr]

How about a long drive late in the 4th to not only kill the clock, but actually score a TD?  Holy Fuk, that hasn't happened in a while.  10+ mins.

This portends a return to some old-school Steelers football, I hope.

[jonzr]

Ouch, that's gotta hurt.

[jasonic]

first time I think I've ever seen a halftime adjustment.  Steelers dominated.  felt really good

[kluisi61]

Ouch, that's gotta hurt.

...but then allow that sex offender to rape THEM for the rest of the night.
