Eagles - Steelers game
Look I know its preseason but the Steelers look pretty good against a team that looked pretty good against us.
The sky is not falling its just an observation...

Re: Eagles - Steelers game
For anyone not watching.
Steelers starting offense - first two drives 80+ yards, 2 TD (Samuel bit and left Brown wide open, the other Ward in the corner of the EZ)
Eagles starting offense - one 4 or 5 play drive and punt, Vick has two picks (one an awful stare down right into double coverage)
Cotchery with a couple clutch catches, including a 3rd and 20+ conversion.
Steelers first team ran really well on Eagles D, making me wonder why they went out and got so many premier CBs if teams can just pound them up front.
Couple injuries to Steelers o-line, nothing that appears too serious.
Currently 14-0, 2:30 left in the half.

Fans are getting their gasoline and matches ready to burn Philly down.

Re: Eagles - Steelers game
Pittsburgh's first team defense really responded well. They will have an advantage over most teams with the veterans on that defense, so long as they hold up for the entire season. They work very well together.
Philly can be run on. We saw it last week and now we are seeing it this week. Their linebackers are green. They will get their share of coverage sacks, but teams will be able to run on them."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector.

Pittsburgh's offense is basically going to be the same, with a few new and younger pieces. They will go as Ben goes.

Re: Eagles - Steelers game
It was ridiculous how much fans were freaking out over Oher last week. It was the first preseason game. Last year, Antwan Barnes made Jordan Gross look like Oniel Cousins, in the first preseason game. Oher really didn't play that bad. He and Leach had a little mis-communication The one sack where Flacco tried to scramble really shouldn't have been blamed on Oher. Oher held his block for over three seconds. Flacco waited to scramble and the defender just made a nice 'hustle' play.

Re: Eagles - Steelers game
Jesus Troy, love you getting the pick, but you don't need to take a shot to the knee on a meaningless return. Get down, man.
Eagles just could not have looked worse tonight. Whole half of play for Vick, 5/12 with 3 picks.
Is Ward going to act like Derrick Mason when that happens?

Re: Eagles - Steelers game
Only one thing to root for in this game, a simultaneous Dog Killer/Rapist injury....
- Section 133 for eternity!
- I know... The family resemblance is uncanny.

Re: Eagles - Steelers game
Definately happier with their performance this week, over last week.
Hated the Troy run back. Too injury prone and should of went down. Then it looked like Vick went for Troy's knees.
Overall, as long as the o-line holds up, I think Ben will have LOTS of weapons this year. The Cotchery pick up is awesome!!!
