Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals - Open Thread
Kickoff is just around the corner. The game will be televised on NFL Network. You can watch a simulcast of the game online here. Join me and other Steelers fans here throughout the game and afterwards to talk about the action as it unfolds. Hopefully our offense breaks out, our defense shuts down what's left of the depleted Bengals offense, and we emerege victorious to improve to 8-3 with a 10-day rest awaiting.
HERE WE GO STEELERS, HERE WE GO!

Chirs Kirpatrick...
I don’t like how this is starting out
"This club plays better baseball now. Some of them look fairly alert." ~ Casey Stengel on the 1969 New York Mets
my main worry
Chris Henry giving William Gay fits. He’s a quick guy who has hurt us in the past. Meanwhile Gay, by all accounts, is a tremendously smart but athletically limited corner.
one benefit of going to college around cinci area...
get to watch this game in my house and not around a ton of retarded bengals fans!
GO STEELERS!
33 Yard Punt
Somewhere in America is a guy that can punt it 40 yards. Why aren’t we looking for him?

Ernster holds for Reed
Made sense to sign him. Not getting another guy in at some point is crazy though. Sign one to your practice squad and see if he can hold first.

Bitch At Your Cable Co
not NFL Network. All cable has too do is kick down some $$$ and you can see too!
When You Run The Ball Good Things Happen
i swear
ben and santonio dont communicate. holmes stopped on that route and ben threw it ahead of him
stacking the box on 1st and 2nd down, blitzing on 3rd down
… bringing extra men and daring ben to make an accurate quick throw. He’s done it twice – though nate dropped one.
28 Yard Punt
Somewhere in America there is a guy that can punt 30 yards and hold the football on EP and FG. Why are we not looking for him?

if we haven't...
I bet Colbert is already on it after those two punts. I hope, at least…

Like watching Sumo..
.. which defense can belly bump the other team’s offense into their own end zone first.
this is pissing me off

Don’t deserve to win if this is how it’s going to be.
at the post game interview
ryan fitzpatrick: “well, first of all, we’d like to thank ernster for giving us such great field position to work with. he was great for us.”

24 Yard Punt
How about getting one of the girl soccer players up at CMU to punt?
When You Run The Ball Good Things Happen
is it on BA?
there’s no such thing as a perfectly called game. meanwhile we can’t even run the ball – our line is getting no push.

was that pass even to heath?
the one he tipped
willie
why can’t we run on this crappy defense
by Bleed-Black&Gold on Nov 20, 2008 8:59 PM EST reply actions
still not a great call
given that we haven’t been able to run on them… too close there
Why are we afraid to run right
I am glad we got it but sheesh
outside
why didn’t he just bump it outside

FWP doesnt seem to have his burst
Maybe he is feeling the effects of the short week after missing so much time?
I agree
He has nowhere to go

Is it the short week or taking this game for granted?

Well I’d have loved to have seen that stop, but the asshole who was streaming it via Channelsurging.net decided to change the channel to The Office. And NFL.com blows goats. Why the hell would you commentate in-studio while the game is on?
amen brother

the dd2 stream is working ok for me
that third down run to davis was a great call by b.a.

beautiful play
been wondering why we don’t do those quick hits to carey davis.
Ben finally connects with holmes
Lets get the lead bf half
Definitely
Spaeth would get the catch and lose all momentum at first contact
spaeth looks like an Ent when he runs

Crazy Legs
Holmes on the return, Ward’s stumbling in a few, Polamalu’s interception last week, and this game tonight. Our guys are used to running on the worst field in the league. It’s a benefit at times, and a hinderance at others. I say it’s time to stop the gamble. I don’t necessarily want turf but serious improvements need to be made to shore up this field through the year. The way we play this game now it’s killing us. I agree with the sentiment above. Give Russell the rock. This is Bettis territory.
and wouldn't you love it if our line / offense
could run the ball on 3rd and 3 consistently enough that we don’t have to rely on that play?

Reed is the man
Great story on him on espn.com the other day, in case nobody saw it. It’s on the AFC North blog.

safe play, little chance of freak INT returned for TD
if you get somewhere then you throw deep
