I guess you didn't watch the game. Mcnabb missed one series. The Steelers don't have an offensive line, if you would have watched the game you would have seen the Eagles defense getting 9 sacks. I don't know about Pittsburgh not being sh*t, the defense only gave up 15 points. How many points did your beloved Cowboys give up to the Eagles..... Please tell me I forgot.

I will say their OFFENSE on the road ain't Sh*T. The last two weeks on the road, a total of 16 points.

Well Pittsburgh isn't good on the road but they are $***. They are a great team. Our defense played spectacular. A safety, an interception, 9 sacks (actually it was 11 sacks, they took 2 sacks away from us on penalties) and constant pressure on Roethlisberger, who is great at maneuvering in the pocket. Give the Eagles D credit. I'm shocked Cincy almost won vs. the Giants today but no go.

And I'm not overly shocked at the Bears losing to TB. TB is an underrated, good team. They have 2 good QBs- I prefer Garcia over Greise but they're both good. They have a good defense, Cadillac Williams isn't bad but is injured and decent receiving core.

You still prefer Garcia over Griese after what he has done the last 2 weeks?

Wreckless
09-21-2008, 08:41 PM
Yeah, and not just cause Garcia was on the Eagles, I think he is good anyways. Well today I saw Griese threw for 407 yards but he had 65 attempts, he had like 6 yards an attempt. So if he had 30 attemps he would of only had 183 yards passing. It was just a lot of attempts so his passing yards racked up. Griese is good but I'll take Garcia, he was good in San Fran to begin with.

you think perhaps the eagles had something to do with the fact they only had 6 points? the eagles shut down a very good offense. The titans are a good team but they are not in my opinion the best in the afc. The afc is very strange right now.

Mike, it's something wrong with the Steelers offense or the play calling because they scored 10 points against a 0-3 Browns team last week and 6 points today. BTW, the Ravens scored 28 pts on that browns team the steelers couldn't score against last week. This is not the same steelers offense, defense looks the same

I have watched them in both games so far and they look very good. The defense seems to be back and their new QB is moving the offense. They're also using the running game which Billick never liked to do for some reason.

That's a positive. McNair was awful last year and hurt , Ogden could hardly play and Billick lost the team. How many games did they lose because he wanted to pass instead of just running the ball? I lost count. The players were starting to call him out. Ray Lewis even bashed his playcalling on his radio show. I watch the Ravens practically every week.
