steelers will be 7 time super bowl champions...

[Earl1972]

maybe next year or the year after

CUT LIMAS SWEED AND FIRE BRUCE ARIANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TROY POLAMALU IS THE MOST VALUABLE PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tonymctones]

I thought sweed looked decent in preseason but yall already have a butt load of talent at the WR position

I think dropping willie parker would be the best move...

[Earl1972]

WORST LOSS SINCE 2006

[tonymctones]

WORST LOSS SINCE 2006

E

only thing worse would have been if ochocinco caught the winning pass...

[Earl1972]

sweed is wide open in the end zone and drops the pass

wallace (who looks pretty good for a rookie wr) catches a 50 yard pass but somehow steps out of bounds when he easily could've had a TD

holmes supposedly has a bad wrist, it shows because he can't catch the fucking ball anymore and his route running caused a pick 6, keep him off the fucking field if his wrist is hurt

harrison and woodley had a combined 30 sacks last year, i hardly notice them, i think polamalu locking down receivers is the reason they got sacks

jeff reed looks like kris brown circa 2001 against the ravens, he's a head case that is letting the contract year affect his game

bruce arians is a shitty play caller

dick lebeau rode polamalu's coattails along with the rest of the defense

the o line played their best game ever, but gave up the only sack on 3rd down right before the bengals final drive

FUUUUCCKKKKKK feels like 2006 all over again, it least then i could say cowher was already retired and ben had his accidents

[2ND COMING]

theres no need to commit suicide yet

its week 3

[Earl1972]

theres no need to commit suicide yet

its week 3

i was saying that last week

what have you seen in the first 3 games to make you think this is a good team?

don't forget it took OT to beat the 0 - 3 titans, every other team scored at least 20 points on them

steelers easily could be 0 - 3 and statistically they don't make the playoffs

they found ways to steal games last year, that's what all great teams do

bad teams find ways to lose and give away games by shooting themselves in the foot, like this years team

two straight weeks without the 'vaunted defense' forcing a turnover

Already writing off the season, huh?

I didn't have you figured as a front runner fan, Earl. It's still September, dude.

that was my emotions talking last night, i feel a little better after sleeping on it

still it's looking eerily familiar to the 06 season, yesterdays loss was the worst since losing to oakland in 06

i'm not saying it's over, just nowhere near as optimistic as i once was

and i'm not a steeler frontrunner, i will watch every game no matter what

I dont feel bad for you try being a Texans fan and watching every game that = a lot of face palms...

[The Showstoppa]

I think the Steelers will right the ship.  The running game was really bad last year, and not so great this year so far, so that is a concern.

Defense will be fine when Troy P gets back.  That guy is a one man wrecking crew and sets the tone for the rest of the defense.

Doubtfull.  If your success hinges on one player, you're screwed.  As injuries mount and depth comes more into play, things could get worse.

It's always more difficult being the hunted than the hunter. The Steelers represent every opponent's super bowl game every week. It's tough defending the crown, no doubt about it. But it's only 2 losses so far and I would be more concerned as a fan if they had four losses going into November.

The running game looked a little better but still needs work. Troy's absence in the secondary is pretty apparent. Limas Sweed? I don't know how that guy gets playing time. He looks like a major bust who shrinks from the spotlight when the attention is on him. Horrible hands.

[The Showstoppa]

Wishful thinking on your part perhaps?  Steelers will be fine.  They lost two games by a FG each, so not exactly the Browns we are talking about here.

Not to mention they have the Chargers (who they own), Detroit and Cleveland coming up.  Now it they don't win 2 out of those 3, it's time to panic!

they will be ok,big ben actually 2/3 wks is airing the ball out a bit,getting some passing yardage which is something he dosen't do reguarly.10-6 would be good enough as long as say ravens don't run away with division.

i just remembered the year the colts won the super bowl, bob sanders was out for most of the season and the colts defense struggled

he returned for the playoffs and dominated, WHEN TROY COMES BACK STEELERS WILL DOMINATE

WHO RIDE?

WE RIDE!

LETS RIDE ON 3

But the Colts had(have) a much better O-line and a very good running game with Addai and Rhodes. The Steelers so far this year do not on both counts.

their defense wasn't as strong as a steeler defense with troy

Why?  They are not even close to the best team in the AFC.  Colts and the Jets are much better.  My point was that if youre this impacted by a single player, what happens when the injuries roll in? It only gets worse.  SB teams that arent lucky have the depth to be better than everyone else at the end of the season.

Imo, the Colts, the Pats, or the Jets will rep the AFC in the SB.  The Ravens are the wildcard team this year that could make it all the way.

[/b]Um, I think the Ravens will win their division making them a playoff contender with a chance at homefield advantage.

is it coincidence that you are missing when the steelers do well, yet seem to be active on this forum when the steelers are losing?

[body88]

By wildcard, I meant the team that no one painted as the sb favorite preseason, and they end up winning it all.  The Ravens are good, right now, the colts are better - imo.

[2ND COMING]

the ravens have yet to play an actual nfl caliber football team and people on various forums i visit are already delcaring them afc champs

[UPINTHEMGUTS]

I agree with everything that everyone is saying about the Ravens. Lots of big name opponents yet to play on the schedule.

New England and Minnesota on the road over the next two weeks followed by home games against the Colts and the Steelers in late November.

Very laughable that the Ravens are ranked number one in the Espn power rankings after just two weeks. I don't even think there should be such a things as power ranking until mid season.
