The titans have looked pretty good, but are making stupid offensive mistakes and penalties on the defensive side.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 1:36 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

yeah

flacco just threw a terrible pick

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 1:38 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Just awful. Collins and him are officially in competition.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 1:38 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

or not

this may get overturned

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 1:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think teams in the NFL really need to work on getting new units on the field quickly after questionable calls.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 1:42 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Challenge, looked questionable. Awful throw still though.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 1:40 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

There we go, a real interception. Titans on ravens 20. The ravens are doing their favorite playcall – personal foul.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:01 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

hard to believe

the titans are an elite team, they have a great defense but the offense….

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 2:03 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

They’re getting abused, even though their returner/defense are giving them solid SOLID field position. The running game was doing great on the first series but hasn’t looked hot since then.

I’ve never believed they were an elite team though, I can’t believe announcers were saying they were rated as #1 team in AFC. I just hope they are good enough to beat the ravens, they can stay undefeated for now.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:10 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

If the ravens pull this one off we need to win tonight for sure.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Skins and eagles are still close. Skins driving at the end of the half.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:19 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

1st down by about a centimeter. Skins have a long field though.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:20 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Ravens RT looks like his leg won’t be working for awhile.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:22 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Ravens look like they’ll be up by the half.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:23 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

nope

wide right….

halftime just in time for the start of the Pens game

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 2:27 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, I’m getting justin.tv going – this is going to be difficult. What a whiff by their kicker. Jeff reed owns him.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:28 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

It’s not going to start until the 2nd half, ugh.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 2:36 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

haha

10 minutes of national anthems

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 2:46 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Titans look bad, bad bad.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:05 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Houston is taking it to the colts with their backup QB.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:10 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The titans pass attack looks horrible. I like our chances against the titans relying on the run so much.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:20 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

redskins

taking it to the eagles

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 3:28 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The skins have looked really, really good lately.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:28 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Not looking good. Ravens are running and short passing all over them. Titans look useless.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:35 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

2 minutes left. Titans in the red zone, down 10-6.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:51 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Starting to play the short passing game, everything else has been taken away. Running game is bad and kerry can’t throw anything long.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:52 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

11 yard line, 1st and 10.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:53 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Titans pull it off. 12(soon to be 13)-10 less than 2 minutes left.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:54 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

We just need the ravens to buckle, I know they have it in them.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:54 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

F’ing sweet. Interception by titans. Game is over.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:57 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Well, almost…

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 3:59 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Wow...

How about what’s going on down in Houston? Colts score 21 points in 5 minutes and win.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 3:59 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, the texans really let everyone down.

Ravens game is over, good news for us.

Bengals all set to fail horrible aganst the boys.

I can’t believe I’m going to be stucking watching CIN @ DAL.

SF vs. NE

Out here in Los Angeles.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 4:09 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

That will be so much more entertaining. Personally I’d love to see BUF/ARZ

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:11 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Nevermind...

So much for that national broadcast map. It will indeed be Cincy/Dallas.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 4:15 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

AFC south is looking awfully weak, the titans were not impressive at all. We need to take the jags.

NFC east looks beastly.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:14 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

CIN @ DAL

1st play, interception. Palmer is just such a great QB.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

1st Play for Cincy...

Pick. That’s why they’re the Bungles.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 4:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Maybe they’ll switch the games after the 1st quarter.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

It’s pretty funny anytime the announcers say anything good about the bengals D.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:19 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

But hey, only 3 points starting at the 20.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:19 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

2nd cincy play of the game, false start.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:23 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Bills Edwards was taken off on a stretcher…

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:28 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

That’d be the one.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:30 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Cards up 7-0. This sucks for the bills.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:31 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Oh, and Miami over SD. They might prove to be a tougher game (the ravens play them) than the patriots. We’ll see how NE does today.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:29 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Romo looks off today.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 4:32 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, pretty bad throws. That run from the I-formation was nice.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:33 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Going for it on 4th and 4? Wow.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:35 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Touchdown. Kudos to the cowboys – balls of steel.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:35 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Leave it to the Bungles to leave the edges open on 4th and short with Felix Jones in the backfield.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 4:40 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I really do feel bad for the bengals, assuming we beat them twice of course.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:38 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Poor ocho cinco, whine whine whine.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:42 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Ocho cinco kisses the ground, but not the star.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:45 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

SF up another touchdown.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:46 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Well, good. Isaac Bruce scored it. Makes my fantasy team, who is getting walloped at the moment, look a little better.

by Hines Ward on Oct 5, 2008 4:52 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I’m happy we get to play them, but the bengals really are an embarrassment to our division.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:55 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Wish we got to place another team off of our bye week though, it’s a waste of our preparation.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:57 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Game over. Time to go do something else, see yinz tonight.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 4:58 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Wow, I come back and the bengals haven’t imploded. Holy crap.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:10 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I take back everything I said about the bengals. After a pathetic 1st quarter they are really making this a game.

Romo looks really awful.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:33 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Romo passing yards in 2nd and 3rd quarter = 38.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:37 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Ha, recovered bengals onside kick with 14:01 left, down 16-17. They are really showing some steel.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:41 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Then they had to fumble it.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:43 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Great, more reason for T.O. to gloat. 2nd catch of the game, 57 yard TD.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:45 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

bengals

man…. they always seem to find a way to mess things up

by schnifin on Oct 5, 2008 6:51 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

They’re back in it. They’ll need a TD with 2 point. I’m guessing they’ll go for the 2 points IF they get the TD, there is still plenty of time left though.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:53 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I’m not worried about cincy winning this game, I really could care less. I’m worried about cincy actually becoming a decent team and having to gameplan for them.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:55 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I wish I could say this has been a great game, but it’s just the cowboys playing terribly and cincy (gasp), playing well. Since the 1st quarter anyhow.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 6:56 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Cincy’s running game with their new RB actually looks pretty decent.

Here comes the demoralizing run it down your throat drive…

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 7:05 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Barber is very, very powerful. He is running against the bengals, but there is other evidence to support that at least.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 7:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

He’s hit by 3 guys and still gets 3 yards. We need one of those…

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 7:07 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Since I’m talking to myself, I might as well complain about these miller lite commercials. Or any lite, jesus people, they all taste the same and are terrible.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 7:10 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Holy shit, catch of the week. TD cowboys.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 7:12 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

2 score game, there is no way the bengals pull this one out. Still, they looked like a team tonight, they’re definitely going to win a game this season. I suggest the 2nd game vs. the ravens and browns.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 7:16 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

There is palmer blowing the game, terrible clock management. Just knee it dude.

he is the only good defender they have

I think they would have been fine if he hadn’t fallen.

that sucks. after coming out of the gate strong on offense, with some nice quick passes and the momentum. let’s see if they can sustain something now.

by agentorange on Oct 5, 2008 8:30 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I don’t want najeh to return, he doesn’t do anything but run straight into defenders. That’s why he’s a third and short back.

Why’d we go away from the run game and the dink passes?

Was that berger or did we get a cyborg replacement?

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:35 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Everyone on the offensive line is going for the cycle, a holdin penatly and a false start each.

He is upset about everyone here making fun of his averages. Arians told him.

These announcers are a bit busy reliving the glory days and giving each other rim jobs.

A++++

Game from Arians so far. Seriously. We dog the man, we gotta give credit when its due.

by Michael Bean (Blitz) on Oct 5, 2008 9:42 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Once the game is over. I reserve judgement but right now he is getting a serious shoutout.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:42 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Jesus heath. I’m still keeping an eye on stapleton, and he still looks solid.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:43 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

He is getting beat physically but is pushing outside.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:44 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Please do keep an eye on him and give a report tomorrow. Cant watch em all.

by Michael Bean (Blitz) on Oct 5, 2008 9:44 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I’m one gin cocktail away from being smashed. Hopefully PGH will keep track of him, but I haven’t seen any issues when I’ve been watching, about half the plays.

Moore is not an inside back. He seems to get to the edges pretty quick though.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:47 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Why we trying to run against ten men in the box?

by Steeler Ric on Oct 5, 2008 9:47 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Hey blitz, I think after this game you should put together a red-zone thread for our pal arians.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:48 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

the score does not represent how dominate we have been thus far

by frankrmineo on Oct 5, 2008 9:49 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Agreed. Ask the ravens how much that means though.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:49 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

ugh, have to finish these guys

by vin2k on Oct 5, 2008 9:49 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The D just needs to keep it up, and no ST/Offensive interference/fumble screw ups.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:49 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

But we need TDs.

by steelguy99 on Oct 5, 2008 9:49 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Gets a mark down from me for that goalline playcalling.
