yes sir i read them too. It is too funny. I loved watching with my steeler friend and sticking it in his face. Before the game we started talking and then it turned into a insult fest. I said somethings about Big ben and surprise surprise they came true

they act like winning is as regular there as john madden is on mnf. last i checked, they went 6-10 in 2003, then they have a winning record the next season, they get handed a loss in preseason and everyone's pointing guns at each other.

Actually there tone sounds somewhat similiar to our Ramsey discussions after the first couple of games. Maybe we'll settle down a little. But I do concede that they are a bunch of spoiled asswipes!!!

Hail to the Redskins!!!

Anyone else feel like the Steelers were over-rated last year. To be honest, I dont mind the Steelers and I was hoping they'd beat the Patriots.

Yeah, they had the #1 defense, but their #1 defense was on the field for almost 100 less snaps than the #2 and #3 defenses. They also allowed .4/.3 more yards per play than the BUffalo/Redskins.

Secondly, Big Ben excelled as a rookie, but with Plax gone I'm not so sure they can have Randel El step up into that #2 position. He was also put into a great situation for a rookie. Heath Miller could help save him, but late in the year, once teams had some film, he quickly dropped off in effeciency.

I can see the Bengals winning that division.

I agree about Pittsburgh. They never really dominated teams, but always did enough to squeak by. Thats not to say if the Skins were just to squeak by in 15 games , I'd be upset. But, they played against weaker opponents in the regular season (NFC East, AFC East) and AFC North was not very good either. I still think they are contenders, but they arent going to be within 4 games of 15-1.

Well, just as we would be quick to dismiss all of our problems, because it is preseason, it is also preseason for the Steelers. I think they will still take their division. And as far as the Bengals go, their first team doesn't look great either. No way we can draw anything from preseason. All these teams are going to look different in a couple weeks.

click on one of the links and find joe... that picture is hilarious.

So the Steelers were 6-10 in 2003, and 15-1 in '04. Hmmm....
They "squeaked by" and won close games.....the Skins lost a lot of close games........oh what a play or two per game going the other way and/or a little luck can do......can you tell where I'm going with this???
Not saying that we're going to win 15 games, but teams like last year's Steelers and Chargers are proof that "worst to first" success can, and DOES happen every year.....It's time!!!
