  1. I'm totally relaxed. I'm always relaxed.

     

    Sorry - poor choice of words. Strike "relax" from my last post. I was channeling my inner Aaron Rodgers. I have found your posts rationale and you to be a very reasonable fan. My retorts have been made in jest at the Black & Gold contingent that is far less reasonable.

     

    However, I would very much like the chance to see the Steelers in the playoffs. Why not? Great theater and if the Bengals win, it will be fun on BGP.

  2. It's ok. In the unlikely event the Steelers make it, they own the little field by the river there in Cincy. It's ok.

     

    But none of it matters. The Steeler defense is worse this season than last. If drastic changes aren't made, it will be the same next season as well.

     

    Relax - taking a jab at the guy that likes to throw Pittsburgh's success in Cincinnati in virtually every thread post.

     

    I'm WELL aware of the records and Pittsburgh's place as the greatest franchise in the entire history of forever.

     

    My poor little Bengals don't stand a chance.

  3. Play McCarron - its a sprained non throwing wrist. He needs the reps. I understand that the Ravens will go after him hard, but, I'd rather take the chance of further injury in exchange for the opportunity to go into the playoffs with a win and some valuable reps. As we saw last week, the Ravens are more than capable of beating a quality opponent, so absolutely no guarantee the Bengals win either way, but, I want McCarron in there.

  4. U

    Kordell was a QB at Colorado and drafted as such. They "converted" him to be a playmaker because of his athleticism. He pouted until Cowher made a poor decision and put him under center. Hate to shoot down your Zeppelin but Kordell stunk. The best defense in football carried them and he couldn't manage enough to get to the promised land. So in essence he couldn't even do what Trent freakin Dilfer did.

     

    I respect legit fans like you that understand football. No respect at all for honks with an agenda.

  5. Dear God, how long have you been a Steeler fan? I have a tshirt I made myself that says " I survived the Kordell years". How about Bubby Brister, he couldn't read Dr. Seuss. And let's not pretend Landry Jones is mentally picking apart NFL defenses over there while he chews his nails (seriously) while praying Ben remains upright. Hey, I'm all for the festive banter, but that statement is nuts.

     

    Good call.

  6. Me too, this issue is squarely on the NFL's shoulders.

     

    1,000% agree. Suspensions are the only way to put this to bed. I thought about a suspension system that would escalate if the "victim" continues to miss time. But, that would be dicey, especially if its an all pro safety knocking out a team' fourth receiver. In that case, accusations would start flying around a team intentionally holding an injured player out to keep the all pro defender off the field.

     

    But, I think a one game suspension would be appropriate. That would be a fair deterrent for this stuff. However, I think the targeting rule in the NCAA is a bit harsh. I'd be fine with the suspension decision after the game, with tape reviewed by the league and NFLPA. Heck, I'd be fine with it being a paid suspension. That would make the NFLPA happy.
