Pittsburgh Steelers vs. San Diego Chargers - 2nd Half Open Thread

We asked for a productive day running the football against a beat up Chargers team. So far so good. Outside of San Diego's exquisite opening drive, the defense has been acceptable. They were shortchanged by the fake punt, and have certainly bent a fair amount, but lots of credit belongs to Norv Turner's game plan and the Chargers offense. Look for Lawrence Timmons (my guess) or someone on defense to make a game changing play in the second half. Where has Polamalu been by the way?
On offense, like he has so many times in the past, Ben delivered in the 2 minute drill, hitting Hines Ward on a gorgeously thrown ball inside the San Diego 20. Don't get too fooled by the offense only having 73 yards before that final drive. After it we have 143, the same as San Diego. We of course had one fewer offensive drive because Holmes took one to the house on a punt return.
This is a great game so far. And at the risk of jinxing anything, I think we're in great shape to put them away in the 2nd half and advance on to meet the Ravens next weekend.

Oh come on, steeler fans!
I am hanging here with this typed, waiting for a Steeler to be “FIRST”!
There, that’s better.
May the wind be always at your back, and may your placekicker have icewater in his veins.

a few positives and negatives
positives
-Parker looking like the FWP of old
-There have been some errant throws Ben is showing no ill effects of the concussion
-D holding pretty much
negatives
-D allowing too many big and potentially big plays
-Harrison being held without calls……again

I’m convinced Norv likes to lose his timeouts on challenges so he has an excuse when he has one left for any 2 min. drive. Looks better in the media if he bungles 2 timeouts instead of 3 in a half.

That is why Polamalu is the best in the NFL he also tacles and almost Shuts down WR´s
He almost covers all t Field, t only tning he doesn´t do is offensive running

I think it will
start coming – now that he is defensive player of the year… I mean how do you not call that?

Mike Pereira
Needs to get the can. That was the most blatant non-call I’ve seen.

Bill Leavy...
For a guy who gave us some nice calls in SB XL, you certainly are jobbing us now…

oh man
can’t ease up now – and lose our momentum. Have to keep playing smart – and not go into ball protect mode with 9 minutes left.

Wonder...
If they’re trying to make up for not calling unnecessary roughness on Woodley…

3rd and 3..1st down makes it real hard on SD without some sort of freaky develpment
