    Holy cow what a day! Was at the some to witness in person the destruction of the Denver Broncos and all of the Bronco fans heading out with their tails between their legs. What a great day!

    Life is too short to smoke bad cigars!!!

    Oh when the Blues, Oh when the Blues, Oh when the Blues go marching in!

    Sadly, bust out wins against the Colts and the Ravens seem to have been the flukes for the Steelers. Gettin' whooped by Tampa, the Jets, and now the Titans looks like the new normal for the Black & Gold. Tennessee's rookie QB is carving up the Pittsburgh secondary like a Thanksgiving turkey.

    Think they are just as good as anybody but over look teams they should beat with ease. Been the same for years under Cowher and now Tomlin, games are usually close. Irritates me to no end how they wont step up to the plate and blow up someone they should be able to. Ever since I can remember they always get a confy lead and set on it or just dont play..

    Tempting to think they "play down" to teams they should easily beat. Tons of individual talent, but little cohesiveness as a team. Frustrating!

    Dont think so much they play down.. Just dont think they prepair well for teams the SHOULD beat.. This includes coaching. The other team gets payed also but night and day difference play/prep for different teams.. I love Cowher but he always frustrated me setting on leads.. So badly would like to see Heath get another ring, by far my favorite Steeler since Hines and Casey are no longer playing.

    One of the few prime time games worth watching this year. To the end.

    Pats ftw! Another good pounding.

    Just wanted to add: Think about how the Lions tried to plan for this game. Last week, the Pats get 4 rushing TDs with a new guy on his debut. That had to be a big focus throughout the week. Then, at the end of the week, Pats pick up Blount, Gray misses practice, and suddenly Blount gets 2 TDs and Gray doesn't play. On top of that, 2 TDs for Wright, who is a TE on a team with frickin Gronkowski and is barely known. Good luck planning for that outcome lol

    Should be a good matchup against the Packers next week. Want to put a wager on it?

    Sure, why not. I don't think either team has a defined advantage. 5er?

    One of those things you don't believe you saw because it can't be done.

    My Colts are back to their winning ways. Thank god for getting the Jags twice a year.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Ugly first half. Offensive line looked terrible early on. Definitely beneficial to be in a bad division.
