Sure, Ben was not his usual self last night, but the line did absolutely nothing...no holes for Parker, no time for Ben. <BR/><BR/>I know that J'ville has a great defensive line, but aren't the Steelers supposed to have one of the top offensive lines? 26 yards rushing and no rushing first downs? Total conquest doesn't get more complete than this.<BR/><BR/>Don't be surprised if the Steelers fall badly to the Bengals. They've got some big problems to work out, because it seems that they decided to do too little during the exhibition season with their starters. They'll get it together during their bye week then watch out.<BR/><BR/>One thing is for certain: If Jacksonville stays healthy, particularly Fred Taylor, the AFC Title Game will have them in it. That team played tough football last night, they certainly got the Steelers' attention.worstavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12141180171798154645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-1158720538560858952006-09-19T22:48:00.000-04:002006-09-19T22:48:00.000-04:00Definitely have to blitz Leftwich more if we meet ...Definitely have to blitz Leftwich more if we meet the Jags again.

They need to drop that who...Aw god, horrible night. They need to drop that whole MNF crew and let Dick Vermeil and Jaws do the whole game. <BR/>Ben was really bad, everything was high or behind the receiver, he was laying them out to get hit bad. <BR/>Runing game was even worse, nothing at all.<BR/>Seemed like the D got tired in the 3rd qrt. cause they couldn't tackle anyone, but thats to be expected when the O can't get a 1st down. <BR/>Santonio needs to be taken out of the kickoff return job and not get the ball thrown to him, why did we drop Quincy?<BR/>On a positive note we held them to only 9 points. <BR/><BR/>Well at least there are 14 games left, next week hopefully there fired up to kick some ass on the bungels and get back in the divison race.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-1158692744671092922006-09-19T15:05:00.000-04:002006-09-19T15:05:00.000-04:00Perhaps if these two teams meet again in the playo...Perhaps if these two teams meet again in the playoffs, it would behoove the Steelers to leave a block of wood and an axe in the Jags locker room... at least then the punter won't pin them inside the 5 yard line all night.<BR/><BR/>I loved the "Hi, I'm Ben's liver" graphic that ESPN showed.

He must really enjoy what he says because the play no sooner ends and boom, Joe has a comment spewing out of his mouth. I had to turn down the set. I can't stomach that guy. <BR/> <BR/>It is only one loss and we all knew they wouldn't finish 16-0. My hope every year is go undefeated at home and split the road games. <BR/><BR/>The big concern has to be with that running attack. If it doesn't come around the Steeler are in trouble.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
