    ALLLLLLMOST!!! Until we are allowed to hit again on D without getting flagged EVERY DANG PLAY I think TRUE Steeler football on BOTH sides of the ball is probably gone forever. Offensively though we have DEFINITELY rediscovered it! AHHHHH YEEEEAH!!!!

    Luck threw for over 400 yards...and yet the offense scored only two TDs and the Colts had to hold on for dear life for a win.

    Yep, sounds like Bruce.

    Exactly. BA should be thanking god he has Andrew Luck, otherwise he'd probably be winless. Andrew Luck is single-handedly winning games for that team. BA has ruined a very good TE in Fleener, a guy who has a ton of chemistry with Andrew Luck. He has also made all his RB's virtually invisible. Sounds familiar to anyone?

    BA is a terrible OC. The guy wins games because his QB's bail him out. Give him a crappy QB where he has to rely on a short passing game and a very good running game and he'd probably go winless. BA relies on QB's to win games despite his crappy play calling that ignores RB's and TE's and runs the ball just for the sake of running the ball. He doesn't run the ball to setup anything else or to change how the defence approaches the game, he runs the ball just to say he did. BA is a fat idiot, I'm glad he's gone.

    With Haley we got back to Steeler football yesterday, and we finished a game off by running the ball down their throat. When was the last time that happened?

    I was also gonna say how Luck threw for all those yards and BARELY won the game. He threw it over FIFTY times! That's not a recipe for success even for the PACKERS OR THE PATRIOTS! The Colts better enjoy this run they are on because when winter comes and they have to play outside they are gonna get pounded when they can't throw and they've abandoned the run. Anyone care to be reminded of the game against the Clowns in 09 where it was about 2 degrees outside and BA, in his pure genius, threw the ball like FIFTY times and we LOST TO THE CLOWNS????? My dream scenario though is for the Colts to make it to the playoffs and us to make it and SOMEHOW we get to play them! Oh you don't know how much I would love for Haley to absolutely, positively, without a doubt, show him up and make him look like the fool he truly is! Oh MAN that would be one of the highlights of my LIFE!!!

    I would love for us to play them in the playoffs and beat them by running for 300 yards and throwing nothing but short passes to our TE's. Beat BA with the tools that he ignored for many years. It just blows my mind, how do you all but ignore RB's and TE's, they are such deadly weapons in the passing game. How is he viewed as a good coach, I just don't get it

    Well he isn't viewed as a "good coach" by EVERYone... I think the Rooney's would beg to differ! They shipped him out of town along with his retardesque play book! And I love them even MORE for it! Colts fans WANT to throw the ball that many times and DON'T care about the run so they might love him and if they do more power to them. My wife's cousin has divorced parents. And unlike in most cases his REAL dad gets along VERY good with his STEPDAD. I asked him how his dad could be such good friends with a guy that is married to his ex-wife and he said "well the way he sees it he's just glad HE'S not married to her anymore so why shouldn't he love the guy?" So if BA wants to go out with his short-bus offense and spread it all over the NFL that's fine. Just keep it out of Pittsburgh!

    Clark still hits hard and players remember, I've seen drops because I think he is in their heads. Clark still lights them up and if he gets fined I don't think he cares.

    Yeah Clark is FOR SURE the most "vintage" guy that we have right now. That's why I love him so much!

    AH YEAH! I was wanting to see someone get their head knocked off yesterday because I was so mad during the game. I thought well if the refs are gonna steal the game let's at least hurt somebody!

    He has been sacked 19 times. He has 10 td's but 8 picks. That's BA ball for sure!

    Also the QB throws for 430 yards but only puts 23 points on the board...another sign of BA ball.

    Looking at the remainder of their schedule I can see the colts having an 8-8 maybe a 9-7 record, they play the patriots in two weeks, they have to play the Texans twice and the lions wont be an easy win for them, they have had a good run playing on emotion with their win one for the gipper attitude, but how long will that last????

    Roethlisberger has thrown for over four hundred yards three times in his career:

    2006 433 yards in a 31 - 20 loss (Cowher/Whisenhunt)
    2009 417 yards in a 27 - 14 win (Tomlin/Arians)
    2009 503 yards in a 37 - 36 win (Tomlin/Arians)

    Sounds more like Whisenhunt.
