Who's watching this one?? anyone??Ben sacked twice in a row...WTF...

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Yep -- Steelers looking sloppy in the red zone so far. Second drive started on the CIN 18 and the Steelers only got a FG out of it.

thanks Memphis.Is the Bengals Tenacious D rearing its ugly head?

 

[Memphis Foundry]

They've only really stood up inside the red zone -- Steelers moved the ball at will on their first drive until they got deep in CIN territory. Defense is looking pretty good but Rudi Johnson is having more success rushing than I would like so far.

CJ scored, what did he do?

 

[Righetti]

everybody have you $1 ready to throw into the fine potLETS GO CJ

 

[BigJohn]

Holy Crap!!!!!!!nice catch..........

 

[Sputnikv8]

CJ scored, what did he do?

First of all...its exciting that CJ scored. Thats hard to believe in itself!Was the "dance" any good?

 

[BloodyPigSkin]

Yes, what say everyone of this $1 celebration? What did he do?

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Chad Johnson just went up over Townsend for the TD.

 

[Tiger Fan]

Chad Johnson just went up over Townsend for the TD.

About freakin time

 

[paz1]

Chad Johnson just went up over Townsend for the TD.

Of course I sat him this week...I'm sure I'm not alone.

 

[BigJohn]

His celebration wasn't much....looked like he was imitating somebody, but it wasn't clear who it was.....

 

[Righetti]

i got two more singles which i'm looking to spend it this week

 

[Multiple Scoregasms]

1 for 36 and 1 tdhow about some more CJ

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Dance was actually pretty weak -- he just kinda threw a few soft jabs at the air. Was expecting more after that catch.

 

[Multiple Scoregasms]

ehh screw the dance, just score some more

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Burress coming off the field holding his left hammy trailed by a couple of trainers.

 

[hammerva]

Plex is having a great game but he just went off the field limping. Even though my opponent has him we need this week.

 

[Steel City]

According to the local broadcast, Plaxico's return is not promising.

 

[Trey]

I needed Plaxico this week...And I get this...

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Steelers offense just can't get past the CIN 18 yard line. A TD pass to Randle-El was called back on a hold by Oliver Ross.

 

[Steel City]

Three trips into Bengal territory for the Steelers (two inside the twenty) for a total of 3 points.Roethlisberger just had a TD to Randel-El called back because of holding. Next play - sacked. Steeler punt to the 2.

 

[Sputnikv8]

Is Jeff Reed this weak of a kicker? Twice now they punt for 30 yards rather than try to kick a long FG.Geez.

 

[apalmer]

Is Jeff Reed this week of a kicker? Twice now they punt for 30 yards rather than try to kick a long FG.Geez.

Would have been 54 and 52 yard attempts. Better to play field position and rely on that Steeler D.

 

[Steel City]

Interception! TD Farrior!

Like That!

 

[Memphis Foundry]

TD Farrior on the INT! :stillers:

You might want to give Palmer some credit for throwing into ugly three man coverage.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Kendrell Bell just left the game limping. Not much of a surprise there.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

TD Kelley Washingon. Steeler D not getting much pressure on Palmer at all.

 

[apalmer]

Cousin Carson looked like a Heisman winner on that drive. That'll be enough of that, please.

 

[Steel City]

That was probably Palmers best drive of the season. He just ripped through the Steeler secondary. Palmer 8-12 120 some yards.

 

[Steel City]

Plaxico is still out.Ward just called leveled. Flag. Helmet to helmet.

 

[Steel City]

Bell looks to be out for the game. No official word on the injury. Probably re-injured the groin.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Bettis looking good on this drive so far. Getting close to the red zone.

 

[Steel City]

Bettis - 12 carries for 53 yards. He's running hard again. Steelers having no problem at all moving the ball down the field until they get into scoring range. Down to about the 30 now.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Fumble by Roeth -- once again penetrated to the 18 and then stalled.

 

[delusional]

When did the Bengals become a defense?

 

[apalmer]

They stop running inside the 20, and Ben is looking like a rookie today. Indecision on a scramble leads to a fumble.

 

[knowledge dropper]

Steelers are in trouble this week. The Bengals are hitting today.

 

[Steel City]

Roethlisberger fumbled. Damn.Falling apart when it counts today. Very strange for this Steeler team.Roethlisberger having problems today. Seems to be staring down receivers. Guess it was bound to happen, and hopefully the adversity will help.Steelers having problems, but they still only trail by 4.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

They did look a little better that time -- Ben had time to throw and wasn't getting swarmed but he is looking mortal and scrambling too much today.

 

[Steel City]

On a side note, Randle-El looking good returning punts for the first time this season. Seems to be going more north and south.

 

[CheeseHead]

Any word on Burress ?

 

[Steel City]

Burress return questionable. On the sideline in uniform with a hat on.

 

[Steel City]

Great play by Tory James. Ward had a step on him deep, but James caught up and got a piece of it. Good throw by Roethlisberger. But holding on the play anyway.Punt.

 

[Steel City]

Another great return by Randel-El. Nifty run back. Circled back, changed direction, went opposite field. Three returns all over 20 yards (28, 29, 28).
