The Steelers haven't been running the ball for beans so far this year (again, terrible offensive line) but Ward and Holmes are about as good a 1-2 wideout combo as you're gonna find in the NFL, and Wallace is starting to emerge as a solid 3. I have given up on Sweed ever developing the ability to CATCH THE f**kING FOOTBALL HOW HARD IS IT I COULD HAVE f**kING CAUGHT THAT TD YOU JUST GODDAMN DROPPED IN THE END ZONE LAST WEEK.

Goes to show that being a big receiver doesn't mean you'll be a good one. On that note: I love how the Giants draft picks those 2 BIG receivers have not played at all and the guys who stepped up are tiny lil Manningham and Steve Smith

Is Manningham small? I didn't realize that. The REALLY tiny one is Sinorice Moss, generously listed at 5'7".

Yea he is.
Well maybe not small...but Manningham at 6'0" 180 lbs and Smith 5'11" and 195
OK, so not tiny...but not big by any means. Especially considering they drafted a 6'6" 230 lb receiver

Well I was saying ever since the Cardinals went to the Super Bowl they over achieved.
A good team no doubt, play off worthy but all the way to the big game?
The Giants would have beaten them for sure...too bad they called the most conservative game ever against the Eagles...
ANYWAY, pretty much said we all have about the Steelers: Too much put on the shoulders of Ben.
Not to mention the loss of Polamalu. I used to not believe losing one player could impact the rest that badly, but after seeing the Colts defense go from godly to limp without Sanders. And the Giants offense from good to anemic without Plax, Im sure without Polamalu it hurts.

Speaking of the Colts D it will be interesting to see how they perform without Freeney.
And with all due respect to the Patriots and any fans of that team,my Ravens are going to eat you guys for breakfast come Sunday.Look out!

Its OK the Pats don't deserve any respect!  Didn't know Freeney was out. Always a huge blow when you lose a pass rusher like that

What the hell?
I don't know why the Giants and Chiefs are on TV here in the middle of PA, but sweet!
Well, Giants win and they were pretty dominant most of the game, but I hope to GOD Eli is alright.
If he goes down we're f*cked.
EDIT: Cowboys/Broncos tied 10-10...last 2 drives Romo has been playing like crap.
Can he do it!? Can he fail with yet another game on the line!?
Answer: Yes. Romo was throwing awfully. He ALMOST made a comeback drive, but yet again the Cowboys lose another close game.
Romo & The Cowboys = OVER RATED

Now THAT is how the Steelers should play football!
Mendenhall is a beast, good moves and POWER. Not Willie Parker running around.
Hope they stick with him.
Also, Chad Henne didn't play too bad. With him at the helm maybe teams might have to actualyl respect the Phins passing game. Then god knows how their run game will be.

Pretty good game tonight.
Not surprised, the Vikings have a better offense and the Packers D is flailing.
Jared Allen...4.5 sacks! Damn
Rodgers really is a good QB though. Once their O-line is shape he will really throw down the gauntlet.

For the first time since I was a child, it's actually fun watching the Vikings. Vikings fans know good time never last, but we're gonna enjoy the ride for a while.
Beyond the whole Favre thing, just watching Jared Allen is a blast. And Peterson ain't too shabby either.

But allow 28 points in a last quarter, to me is a very sign of worry Hope they stick with him.

Yes Allen are one of the best DT on the league.
Great game and i see that Rodgers is ready for the big hit, but his O line have to be more forceful.
hope that Favre don't deflated in the end of the season, as have passed in the previous season.
Happy that the Ravens lose

Didn't make it easy on themselves of course.
Defense really faltered near the end there, Chargers should not have gotten that close.
Apparently though the Steerlers have been doing that this year...
