Steelers, Grilled to the Maximum
You ever heard of that website where fans bitch about the Steelers offensive coordinator? It’s called Fire Bruce Arians! You should check it out today.
Things are getting smelly down in Cowboyville. Early picks to contend for a Superbowl title, the Dallas Cowboys have lost 3 of 4 with the most recent coming via a 34-14 whipping by the lowly St. Louis Rams. Owner Jerry Jones said it was the most disturbing and humiliating defeat of his tenure. Locals claim the team is uninspired and under prepared. A Dallas Morning News columnist is calling for Coach Wade Phillips’ head. Jones…
It was looming ahead of them: a road matchup with the 0-6 Bengals. The trap was set but the cats from Ohio placed it in plain sight. Coming off a bye week amid speculations of rust and worries of falling for a trap, the Steelers roll over the Bengals 38-10 and head home to regroup for a tough four game stretch. This game had a little something for every Steeler fan: crushing blows, outstanding defense,…
Just ask Keith Rivers. Just ask the entire Baltimore Ratbirds secondary. Those guys have been whining about Ward for years. “Oh, he blocks too hard! Oh, that’s not fair! Mooooooommy!” Head over to YouTube and check it out for yourself. Hines Ward is a bad, bad man. But in a good way if you’re a Steelers fan. NFL announcers have been saying it for years: Ward is the best blocking wide receiver in the game.…
We have all seen it: the pink jersey worn by some presumably well-meaning female fan. This phenomenon isn’t limited to the NFL. Ever seen a pastel colored MLB cap? Yikes! Ladies, if you want to show pride for your favorite NFL team by wearing their colors, please make sure to actually wear those colors! And gentlemen, be sure to do your part. Cut this behavior off at the pass by buying your lady the correct…
Marvel Smith is battling back spasms that have plagued him for a considerable portion of his career. Head coach Mike Tomlin stated that if Smith cannot play then Steelers backup tackle Max Starks, a player who received the transition tag this past off season, will make his first start of the season. Has the more recently selected replacement Trai Essex fallen from favor? Has Tomlin received word from above that the $7 Million Dollar Benchwarmer…
According to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette running back Willie Parker aggravated his already injured knee during practice today. His status for the Bengals game this Sunday is uncertain. Hopefully the staff realizes that a healthy Parker is worth more in December than against a cellar dwelling divisional opponent half-way through October. It looks like the door will remain open for backup Mewelde Moore who could see his second 100 yard game in a row. (He…
“I’m caught in a trap. I can’t get out. Because I love you too much baby.” Elvis sang it back in the day. The Pittsburgh Steelers have to avoid it this coming Sunday. They’ve had two weeks off. Fast Willie Parker is returning to the lineup after an injury. Big Snack Hampton will practice with an eye to getting back on the field. These guys must have some rust. And it’s up to Tomlin to…
Finally the Steelers get the better of the hated Jax Jags. Big Ben and the boys got off to a great start on the first drive. They efficiently moved the ball down the field. And in one play they were down 7-0, victims of an INT returned all the way home. It was a deflating moment that no doubt had many Steelers fans sighing and thinking, “Here we go again.” They received the next kickoff…
Put those credit cards away: FireBruceArians.com is off the market. I’m just saying.
That was an ugly game. After moving nicely down the field on their opening possession, the drive stalled and the Steelers were forced to settle for a 3 points. Due to the field position battle and the stifling Steelers defense it seemed possible that a mere FG could suffice. Then came the Big Target’s inexplicable INT to Ravens DT Ngata. You ever see a baseball hit in super slow motion by a bat? The ball…
It’s time to update the name. So long as the Steelers have Bruce Arians as the offensive (pew!) coordinator and those guys along the offensive (ugh!) line it will remain true. A full game of trying to pound a square peg into a closed hole yielded the same results as it did in the first quarter: a flattened RB, a battered QB, and a tattered OL. Apparently no adjustments were called for by Coach Arians,…
Plaxico Burress knows how DeSean Jackson feels. During his rookie season for the Pittsburgh Steelers Burress spiked a live ball upon regaining his feet after a catch. Tonight in Texas Stadium Jackson flipped a live ball behind him mere feet before crossing the goal line after a hauling in a long pass and scooting towards a sure TD. Think he got a Maximum Grilling on the sideline? Why do rookie WRs do these things? Are…
The Steelers made it two in a row to start the season with a workman like win in Cleveland. That makes ten in a row against those hapless Brownstains, the popular AFCN champion pick among the semi-literate talking heads on the sports networks. When will they learn? It rarely pays to pick against the Steelers, although, if you were getting 4+ points last night, it paid. I started the game late (skipping commercials when remembering)…
I’m talking fantasy football here. But if you consider his career so far, it must be a fantasy for him. He went undefeated in his first regular season on a 15-1 team. That’s an accomplishment unheard of for rookie QBs. He made an unlikely run to a Superbowl XL victory to cap a farewell season for The Bus. He survived a near fatal motorcycle accident shortly after attaining that ultimate goal. Suffice it to say…
Just getting started in the wonderful world of blogs. Seems like a good idea. The season is young and the Steelers are promising. Why not?
