rock and roll baby!
that was just about the PERFECT game. aside from the opening kickoff return, baltimore converting 8/14 3rd downs (though in truth most were meaningless,) and two turnovers I don't think they could've played a better game or for that matter coached a better game.
well done steelers. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gifhttps://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif
What an accomplishment for the Steelers. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif On the same day that Peyton broke Marino's supposedly unbreakable record, I wonder if any rookie qb will ever break Big Ben's current record. I can't see it.
Are his ribs alright?
What worries me right now is seeing the Bills win out and still not make the playoffs. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif
Oh yeah baby! 2-13 and on our way to 2-14 as the worst team in the NFL! Go Niners! First round draft pick all the way for next year. :D
What's the latest on Big Ben? We heard he got hurt, but we haven't heard how he is.Quote:

Well, he went back into the game for a few plays and made a couple of throws after the hit, but Cowher pulled him after they got into position for the game sealing field goal. He didn't go into the locker room early, and seemed to be in good spirits.Quote:

Considering how poorly the Browns front office has done with draft picks since they've come back (Tim Couch, Courtney Brown, William Green), they could have the first 10 picks in the draft and still find a way to screw it up. :devil:Quote:

I, for one, can't see the benefit of "playing" for a top draft pick.
The last thing in the world I want to see is my team giving up. Any team, or anyone, who fights it out until the end has my respect.
Give up?? For a draft pick???
Come on....https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif
Hey man, don't be dissing Myron Cope. He's been the voice of the Steelers for the last 35 years, and is a big part of Steeler football. Hell, he even came up with the Terrible Towel, and was the man to name the "Immaculate Reception". He's not quite as sharp as he used to be, he's in his 70s or so now and he's been ill a lot this year, but I can't imagine him not doing the Steelers games. I used to turn the volume down on the TV audio, and crank up the webcast of the game so I could listen to Myron and the boys. Can't do that now since the NFL charges for NFL audio feeds, and I'm already shelling out $200 for Sunday Ticket. :(Quote:

I'd like to see the Bills come out of nowhere and take the whole thing. Or even Washington. That would be greatness.
That would be something, woudn't it? https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gifQuote:

Imagine though...after all those Super Bowls in a row, only to lose every year, and then, to come out like they did this year? As a loser? And then start winning, and, not just winning, but kicking butt! And then, after all that adversity to win it all!!
Sounds like Hollywood to me though...https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif
Anyone watch the JAX v Texans game?
Can you tell me if JAX even showed up?

Yeah they have some young players but Taylor is not going to stay young forever. He is what? on his 8th year?Quote:

Davis showed up to the Texans game, werd
it's really great to see the Pittsburg stealers get homefield advantage. I guaranteed this scenario earlier in the year and now it has come to fruition. Big ben is for real yo! 13-0. T.O is dead. long live the big ben era!!1
Well, JAX has shown up for games this season...unlike the wrbbyninersQuote:

Pitt's played a lot tougher defenses than Buffalo's, and had no problem with them. And with Burress back, they're pretty much unstoppable. No way does Buffalo beat the Burgh if they're playing they're first stringers. :cool:Quote:

And some of those guys have outplayed the starters, too. No way do I even think about giving Chad Scott the start over Willie Williams at this point. Kendrell "Hot Tub" Bell can walk for all I care, Larry Foote has really stepped up his game. And it's gonna be hard to make a case for Haggans getting his job back the way Harrison's played...Quote:

And Bledsoe playing the same part Ben does: multiple short passes mixed in.Quote:
