DL. its been nice, but its time to go

Yeah it's irritating. Ben and Wheaton just still don't seem to be on the exact same page yet though. Also what did you think about the play where AB was in bounds but didn't even try to argue it? That was sorta odd because it seemed like he didn't even know what was going on on that play. I just now thought of that. It hit me during the game but I forgot to ask people about it. If we hadn't challenged we wouldn't have got that catch.

 

I think that play was before the Spence hold/Heyward eruption play though right? Although when I saw it in real time I thought he was out so I could see why he would think he was too.

 

I forgot how beastly Kirkland was.... man, that was good stuff.

I keep trying to find vid of where Lloyd blasted Farve and knocked him back 5 yards in the air. Also I think there is a goalline stand where Bell and Farrior absolutely leveled a Browns RB

 

My favorite Steeler of all time !

 

for me too

 

Avoid Lloyd! Just Plain Nasty! I wasn't hired for my Disposition!

How this Defense could use some Lloyd injection!

Lloyd is my all time fav as well.

 

Not only has the drafting been poor, but the decisions on whom to offer long term deals is suspect as well. So Mr. Colbert's name belongs in the discussion about cleaning house in the Steeler's organization at year end.

For God's sake, he took a flyer on a sleeper player in the 3rd round this year.

 

Yes you should, I tried to find that clip on youtube and couldn't find it love that hit.

 

A quote from Ryan Wilson CBS Sports:


"The Steelers may not like to call it rebuilding but that's exactly what's going on. No longer one of the oldest units in the league, names like James Farrior, Aaron Smith, Casey Hampton, Ryan Clark, and until last week, James Harrison, have been replaced by Ryan Shazier, Cameron Heyward, Steve McLendon, Mike Mitchell and Jarvis Jones.


And when that happens, it doesn't matter how good the coaching is, there's going to be an adjustment period. That's exactly what we've seen through the first month of the season. This has little to do with the game passing by 77-year-old defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau and everything to do with a young group with no real idea what it's doing."

 

Is that the hit where Farve went to the sideline and puked then the leagued fined Lloyd for the hit even though Farve said it was a good clean hit? Only time I actually liked Brett Farve.

 

Dude to not like Brett Favre??? COME ON MAAAAAN! LOL! He is maybe my favorite football player of all time. I still love seeing a Steeler lay him out though. LOL. He is DEFINITELY my favorite non Steeler of all time. I got sick of all his hanging around but there are VERY few athletes that were more fun to watch when they were in their prime.

 

Toughest of all time and it's not even close. I think only Ben and Steve McNair are the closest to him actually. Also I would put the great John Elway in that tough guy category as well.

 

I would have to put Dan Fouts on the tough list as well. He was not mobile and waited till the last moment for an open WR and he got clobbered a lot.

 

Also one of the better colour analysts around.

 

I was at that game, I believe it was a preseason game Lloyd hit Favre so hard it was crazy. Needless to say Brett Favre never came back in that game.Oh how I miss him,He enjoyed hitting people, something we haven't had since.He would bite Silverback's head off and hand it back to him, thats how NASTY he was. By far the most intimidating Steeler in my life time.

 

Couldn't agree more!

 

Maybe. What I saw against the Bucs was the old Ben, who wants to make the big play on every single play. Too many pump fakes (at the wrong time in the drive), holding on to the ball when it needed a quick release. Yeah, the o-line could have done better, as could Bell's blitz pick up, but Ben has to work with that too.
