Me too. But i'm more than confident we can beat them at home. We are 2-2 against the steelers the last two seasons. They are not as good as they were last year and the Bengals are all beat this year.

But strictly against Big Ben:

Ben vs. Baltimore
Record: 2-0
5 TD passes, 2 interceptions
105.1 passer rating

If Ben plays like he did last Monday (edit), it will be no time before Charley is back. He stepped out of just about every throw under pressure, and his timing was completely off. He was afraid to take a hit.

Well...lessee...the guy had a nice fever going. He was also just back behind center for the first time.

I somehow think he'll be much better in the next game and be back to what he's capable of doing by mid-season. Besides, with a D like the Steelers, you could be Kyle Boller and still be okay?

Offesive line needs to step it up. Ward needs to get rid of the rust and shake off the hamstring. Ben needs to wake up . Holmes needs to learn his routes and Parker needs to hit the holes and stop running laterally..


Besides that we should be good to go.

Unless the Steelers have to face the Pats in the playoffs... the only reason why the steelers won the SB last year is cause they didn't have to face the Pats

Tonight the Pats get to face Denver who eliminated us from the playoffs last year...

I kind of wish Palmer would quit leaving our receivers out to dry. He about got Chris Henry's head took off


Pretty good game though..

The momentum has been going back and forth.. Fuckin Ben with 2 INT's.. One in the end zone where he was trying to throw it away..

I guess he stepped on somebody's foot when he threw the 2nd one?


I know his arm isn't that weak :wink:

How he caught that I don't know.

But I'm not celebrating at all until that clock hits zero. Still a LOT of time left...

fortunately for me, the game is blacked out in this area. Thus, forcing me to watch The Redskins. Whats up with the steelers?

Taunting the Long Snapper I bet Cowher rapes him after the game.


I wonder if Holmes is your new Punt Returner now?

For once in my life I agree with Phil Simms: I hate the 3 man rush or Quarter defense or whatever.



But anyways, good game Jonesi. Another classic.

We shall meet again...

You didn't miss much. Brad Johnson threw a horrible pass on 4th down.


Now we gotta hear about it all week from Yumchah

Gruden = the George Seifert of the 2000's.

His only Super Bowl win was when he took over a team that was on autopilot anyway.

Minnesota is much better this year than anyone thought. They proved it again by hanging with Chicago all game.

It almost makes me wish I still lived in Woodbury.

Anybody could've coached that team. Not to mention the mess Oakland was in as a team that game...

I agree they played a pretty good game today, but with all the free agents they've brought in the past two years I still think they're underachieving a bit. With time though...
