Welcome to the opening week for 2010.

Please try and help those who aren't watching by describing events and developments.

If someone is getting lots of targets, let everyone know

If someone has barely been on the field etc.

 
Mendenhall looked good on his reception...Dixon is doing well on the first drive IMO.
Meh, all easy passes for dump offs. First time he had to look downfield, he ended up scrambling and getting hit. All completed passes were near the line of scrimmage.
Dixon has been hot and cold in the first half - he's playing fairly well in the 2 minute drill...
Besides the fact he nearly threw a pick 6?He's had his moments but isn't really impressive at all. He's supposed to let the defense win the game.

Like I wrote - hot and cold. He's been better than I expected given his rough outing in preseason... my :2cents:

Fair enough, I didn't see him in preseason so no idea how he did. If this is better than expected though that gives me a rough idea.
 
Steelers running game and defense are looking pretty good. Pouncey is moving folks around out there, and Adams is getting a really nice push on rushing downs. Need to keep exploiting that in the second half.

 
:lmao: Atlanta fakes going for it on 4th after White gets a very generous spot (knee down and lunged forward) to tempt the Steelers into using a challenge. The red flag comes out but Steelers told could not challenge because not a first down. Atlanta pulls offense off field and kicks the field goal despite no change in 4th and to go yardage.
 
Third and one and can't pick it up, then miss a makeable FG to potentially win a game? That is a microcosm of Bruce Arians' offense from last year, right there.

 
Discouraging loss. May be on the roads against a good defense but if you want to be a double digit win team you need to win this game. Besides for about 4 throws their QB was trash.

 
Can anyone who watched this tell me what happened with Turner. Did he look bad? Bad blocking? Did pitt just stack the box? What happened?

I don't think he looked bad. The Steelers' defense looked very good. With Troy and Smith back, they're a different animal from last year.
