How about them Steelers! I've been waiting for one for the thumb since 81. Not to rub the NE member base the wrong way I hope this year might be the year. I've lived in two foreign countries and numerous states but no matter wher you go in life you have to remember where you came from. I am a die hard Steeler fan and I am so impressed with this rookie QB (Roethlisberger) I'm hoping they can pull it all together when they were never expected to do squat. Enough said go Steelers.

seems I only post when I need help or advice however
- Thread starter pghpenna
- Start date
And from another Dye in the wool New England Fan, Steelers played one hell of a game! Pitt. defence was simply crushing, even though my beloved pats lost, that was hard nose football and I lived it, even from the loosing side! but... I am glad we lost to the steelers, would have really sucked if we lost to ohh, lets say Miami, or a NY team.
Of couse, here in Boston, only one team can be doing good, the sox won so it was only a matter of time till the winning streak stops!
But good game

i still think phillip rivers will be the best of those 4 first round qb's, but dont fret, i think losman has got what it takes. the biggest bust of all i see as eli manning, not now cause he's not playing, but i'm just not convinced he's as good as everyone says he is. plus it just didnt sit well with me the way he orchestrated that trade before he even got drafted.judge09 said:

With receivers like Heiney Wart and Plexiglass Bueller what QB wouldn't look good? Hmmm did I spell those right? Yes, I think i did 
I dunno, Rolfey didn't do all that much Sunday, but he is having a good season. I think Pitt defense and the 4 turnovers killed the Pats, not the Steeler's offense. They did run the heck out of the ball though.

Another Tire/Wheel question!!
I think eli will turn out to be a decent NFL QB. I dont think he is another peyton, but not many people are. I havent seen too much of Philip rivers so I cant comment on him. But I do remember him holding out of training camp and causing more trouble than eli. Losman looked real good in the preseason. He just had a problem with scrambling like he was use to in college and getting the snot knocked out of him by an NFL LB. Hopefully he comes back a little wiser.

I'm seeing Red
rivers, up until last week had the most wins in ncaa history as a starting qb (i forget who knocked him off, not someone you'd think...) rivers is a very good qb, and he just needs the time, but he's also lit a fire under drew brees, who has been playing well. other thing is, lots of players hold out, i think eli basically demanding the trade was far worse than holding out for a contract you feel you deserve, as a rookie, you havent earned the right to demand what team you play for.
and losman did look good until the ol leg snapped. he survived at tulane, so he will probably make a good pure passer, willis mcGahee will help him in the backfield (i believe they'll trade henry in the offseason) and groom losman to take bledsoe's spot.
and ben, he'll do just fine. yeah TC, he does have good receivers, but he's still been thrown into the fire for all intents and purposes. people around you can only do so much, he makes smart decisions, and though he doesnt single handedly win the game for you yet like a culpepper, or a mcnabb, he sure doesnt lose them for you. he's smart with the football and doesnt turn it over.
yeah, eli will be decent, he's not the next best thing though.judge09 said:
