Steelers vs. Redskins - 2nd Half Open Thread
Well, another half, another confirmation that we're not going to win any style points on offense this year. But once again, our defense has come to play! 4 sacks in the first half. And despite some so-so punting from Mitch Berger, our special teams gave our team the boost it needed with a huge Andre Frazier blocked punt.
10-6 heading into half.
Just win, baby.
Go Steelers!

But this is why I miss Coach Cowher. Guaranteed, the Steelers run 13 straight times in the opening drive of the second half. He chews the ass of every offensive lineman in the locker room and they just destroy the front four…set the tone! Get mean!

Why do the Steelers have Ben telegraph the snap by doing that horse stomp as a silent count?

by Blitzburgh on Nov 3, 2008 10:35 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Maybe its Ben
Maybe its not Bruce… maybe Ben and his ailing shoulder are the problem.
Leftwich stands in, avoids the rush with his eyes down field, and unloads the ball on time down the field. Ben would not have done that the past few weeks
The pass to Mewelde is a throw that Ben DOES NOT throw, and he would have taken a sack…
by FireAriansNow on Nov 3, 2008 10:35 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
I'm not saying Ben sucks, he's just not himself

yeah
I think that bottom line he has been playing hurt
by SteelerBuddha on Nov 3, 2008 10:36 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
the reason Ben's not himself
is because the play calls have left him open to being sacked all season. some of the sacks are on Ben for holding on too long, but I’m not ready to forgive Arians
by Alba on Nov 3, 2008 10:37 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
theres some truth to that
We cant get ahead of ourselves yet about what Leftwich will be able to do but its very conceivable that Ben has been the main culprit for the past month

Remember how excited we were for Holmes this season?
I figured he was going to turn into a player, not just an “outside-the-numbers” pass over the shoulder receiver.
He’s not. He hasn’t improved at all from last year to this year. We can find a Nate Washington from Tiffin College to do what Holmes does. We need receivers (ahemSpaeth) to actually create separation and hold on to the ball. There’s a reason no one will ever wear No. 86, and our last two big wide receiver acquisition are in the numbers of the two most notorious quarterbacks in the franchise.
