Manning and Wayne were assisted greatly in that regard by a gift bounce for a long TD. And the Colts still managed 240ish yards in the air.Outside of that Colts game, the Steelers defense has done pretty well vs. opposing QBs. Anyone expecting Romo to win their games for them himself this week , regardless of who wins the actual game in Pittsburgh or what the weather is like, is probably setting themselves up for a good cry come Monday morning.
Bring some Hennessy, dawg! man......The latest weather report from Pittsburgh calls for flurries & temperature at gametime around 25. Winds will be 21mph gusting to 30mph, windchill of about 5.And I'll be heading down to tailgate around 1:00 !!!!
I was, but if the weather and wind gusts are that substantial, I may go with Shaun Hill versus a porous New York Jet secondary. Weather won't be an issue in SF. Hill should be good for 240 yards and 2 TDs; Ben probably gets 175 yards and 1 TD.
If the wind is truly that stong Heinz is going to be brutal for passers and kickers. I remember Bubby never liking the winds "off the lake" at Three Rivers.I have Jeff Reed and I am going to see what is available on the waiver wire.
I'm going Frerotte over Romo but it's a 4 week playoff with cumlative totals for the 6 teams that made it so it's not really as much of a risk as a H2H. I'm also going Big Ben over Eli so go figure.
Thanks for the weather update, but the thought of a matador like Max Starks facing DeMarcus Ware doesn't make me feel more confident about starting Big Ben.facook said:

Current local forecast:Snow showers likely. Snow accumulation around an inch. Near steady temperature in the lower 20s. West winds 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. Chance of snow 70 percent.Edited to include an estimated windchill of about 5.
i agree 100%. however, he'll be a TO (as in turnover) target w/ the combo of no barber, the weather and pitt's d.
The field was resodded after the WPIAL HS playoff games 2 weeks ago. Pitt played on it last Saturday and it looked pretty good.This morning I saw the field was covered so there shouldn't be a whole lot of snow on it and it is heated to 62. I think the footing will be okay, at least early in the game.
thanks. i dont understand the field heating thing. maybe in dry, cold weather. but seems like it just makes more of a mess with weather, no?and doesnt it kinda take away from the "this is football weather" thing. i mean the frozen tundra of Lambeau is no longer frozen.i dont know, whatever. the bottomline is, no matter the conditions, teams have to adjust.
