Steelers, Grilled to the Maximum
So glad I didn't spend this season blogging ab out this mediocre and uninspiring team. Play for the picks, guys! Draft smarter players, please. Brainless talent is useless.
Breathe in, breathe out, repeat. It will be okay. It was only Game One. It was a Road Game. Silverback was out, Ryan Clark was out, Rashard Mendenhall was out. Ben Roethlisberger had the ball in hand and a chance to drive for the win. True, it was not pretty but it could have been so much worse. These things…
First, Mike Tomlin needs to make some changes. Learn more about situational coaching. I'm not saying he should be strictly reactionary but some display of cognizance of the game at hand would be welcome. And he should fire Bruce Arians immediately.
It was a Pittsburgh Steeler day in the AFC North. The Steelers traveled to Cincinnati and beat a winning team while the Ravens found a way to lose to a terrible Seahawks team in Seattle. Toss in another Cleveland loss for good measure.
Yes, you heard me. They're 6-2 and looking every bit like a playoff-caliber team. Could they win the division? They control their own destiny with four games remaining against rivals Pittsburgh and Baltimore. Andy "The Ginger QB" Dalton looks like a worthy second round pick this last draft. As does his favorite target, A.J. Green, their first round pick in…
When they fell behind 16-6 late in the 3rd quarter, I held little hope for a Steeler victory. The offense looked inept and the defense could not get off the field on 3rd down, no matter how great the distance.
The Steelers dominated the statistics, running nearly twice as many plays, doubling the Patriots yardage total and time of possession. Yet, at the end, the Patriots were a lucky play or two away from winning the game.
No, they're all good. But Pittsburgh continued to baffle as they hung on for dear life to defeat a terrible Jaguars team at Heinz field.
Yes. Yes I do. But not this week. The Steelers put a thumping on Tennessee, they of the Titanic whipping of the Ravens a mere three weeks ago. Those same Ravens who kicked the Steelers down the field, dragged them back up it and kicked them down again, for 60 straight minutes on opening day. It's been a season like…
They are a bad football team. Don't try to sugar coat it. There is no hiding from it and no amount of reasoning will change it. This. Team. Sucks.
Before the season started this game was a no-brainer victory for the Steelers. Chalk it up, done deal. Now one can't be so sure. First, the Texans look like they may have a contender. They had a lead on the road against a high scoring New Orleans Saints team but faltered down the stretch, allowing 23 points in the fourth…
It was easy enough to write off the opening week loss to the Ravens as an anomaly. "It was their Super Bowl." "They've been hyped up for that since the schedule came out." "It's only one game, just wait till next week!" Right.
The Steelers got back on track in their home opener, blanking the disastrous Seahawks. Meanwhile the AFC North featured the league's desired parity when everyone finsished 1-1. Yes, that means the mighty Ravens were defeated by the Titans. Perhaps those dirty birds flew a little too high after their week 1 victory? Maybe they can't get it up for any…
The Steelers won't lay two goose eggs in a row. Admittedly, the loss to Baltimore was a surprise, a real stunner. But the Steelers dropping two straight to begin the season would be like a bolt hurled by Zeus. It would defy belief, it's nigh inconceivable. I'm not yet sold that the entire roster "just got old."
Recap? You really want a recap? Tough. There ain't gonna be a recap, just be thankful it's over.
The Steelers are an underdog in this game? Really? Are you kidding me? What is Ray-Ray, a thousand years old? Ed Reed is using a walker, their wide outs are, uh, who? Now that Ray Rice guy ain't bad, at least Flacco will have somebody to throw to. The Ravens defense has lost another step and their offense will be…
That's where Charlie Batch will have to be to earn the backup quarterback position. The line is drawn at Dennis Dixon. Batch must outperform the younger, more athletic player to prolong his NFL career a few more weeks.
