Here we go Steelers - here we go!

 

[Team Smokin']

If McClain is limited, McGahee gets more work, correct? Will Ray Rice see a few carries as well?

 

[Uruk-Hai]

If McClain is limited, McGahee gets more work, correct? Will Ray Rice see a few carries as well?

I expect Rice to get some touches - both running & catching, with maybe some plays at WR. But if the Ravens are struggling with the blitz, they may be forced to have McGahee (who's underrated, IMO, as a blocker) & McClain in the backfield to help out.

I like both teams in this game, but I'm going to root for the Ravens. I like the fact they have a rookie coach, and a rookie QB playing, and since they lost the first two games against the Steelers this year, I'd like to see them come away with a win today. Plus the Steelers were the last out of the two of them to go to the Super Bowl, so I'd like to see the Ravens make it this time.

 

[Routilla]

Go Ravens!

 

[Steeler43]

23-13 Steelers.

 

[Eviloutsider]

Any word on McClain?

 

[Onions]

Weather forecast?

 

[Die]

Now the Steelers are the heavies. With 3 teams left, they've gotta be the overwhelming favorite to win the Lombardi.

In this world of American Idol whoredom, it's nice to hear a well done National Anthem every once in a while

Here we go!

 

[timschochet]

Just once I'd like to see a quick start for the Steelers. Seems like in each of these big games, it takes a quarter or two to get things going.

 

[HellToupee]

24-13 Steelers

 

[Chase Stuart]

3-0 Pit.

 

[Steve Tasker]

I'll be posting from my Blackberry from the sideline.

Oops brb

 

[timschochet]

3-0 Pit.

We're not playing Miami today.

 

[T Bell]

3-0 Pit.

We're not playing Miami today.

3-2?

 

[Lombaowski]

Unbelievable.

 

[Chase Stuart]

Big play by Ward.

PIT OL with some nice pass blocking.

 

[T Bell]

Terrell Suggs danced around, made no contact, and protected his right arm the entire time. He doesn't look like he can play.

 

[identikit]

Big play by Ward. PIT OL with some nice pass blocking.

Was good pass blocking, though it looked like 2 of Bmor'es guys were just kind of standing there.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Anyone else's sound keep going in and out?

 

[Lombaowski]

game over

 

[JZilla]

Anyone else's sound keep going in and out?

Not here..

 

[ClownDogs]

Terrell Suggs danced around, made no contact, and protected his right arm the entire time. He doesn't look like he can play.

He is probably worried he is gonna get laid out by Hines!GO STEELERS!

 

[PC Load Letter]

3rd & 3 in the red zone and you pass? Eesh.

 

[timschochet]

3-0 Pit.

Could Chase have been right?

 

[Steve Tasker]

Anyone else's sound keep going in and out?

Not here..

Seems like Simms' mic is ####ed up. meh

 

[joefootball]

If Ben gets that much time all game it will be a blowout.

 

[T Bell]

Anyone else's sound keep going in and out?

Not here..

Seems like Simms' mic is ####ed up. meh

No big loss.

 

[T Bell]

A tad underthrown to Clayton.

 

[massraider]

A tad underthrown to Clayton.

Clayton needs to make that play.

Zilla> Do I like the Flaming Lips?

 

[T Bell]

A tad underthrown to Clayton.

Clayton needs to make that play.

That wasn't as difficult as the ball McNabb threw to Lewis, nor was the defender as close.

 

[JZilla]

Zilla> Do I like the Flaming Lips?

Heh.. maybe a few songs, here and there.

 

[massraider]

geez, Ravens receivers aren't doing the rookie any favors.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Nice pass

 

[massraider]

Parker took his eye off that waaaaay too soon.

 

[Gottabesweet]

Anyone else's sound keep going in and out?

Mine does. Hear a clicking noise.

 

[Britney Spears]

Oof, that looked awkward when Hines was tackled.

 

[Britney Spears]

Zilla> Do I like the Flaming Lips?

Heh.. maybe a few songs, here and there.

Any albums I should check out?

 

[T Bell]

Great pass and catch.

 

[Evilgrin 72]

That's a TD, methinks.

OK, no more posting for me. GL all.

 

[timschochet]

What a great block on that play by Parker, I think.

 

[Yenrub]

I think that is coming back as an incomplete pass

 

[ClownDogs]

Gotta be a catch. Had three feet down before he hit the ground.
