    Shh! Sitting out is the brave thing to do!

    Seriously, I'm not one of those people that wants an opponent to be at full strength just so it's more satisfying to beat them. Especially if we have injuries of our own, which we certainly do. Okay, I do like beating teams without excuses, but only when we actually win. I think we'll win whether Revis plays or not, but I think it'll be a much easier ride without him.

    He was getting beaten even when he was healthy, I've never seen a corner get away with as much holding as Revis. They bust Ike every time for the same thing.

    I think it's a ploy so our receivers can put there guard down. I'll wait until the inactives come out to believe it.

    It's official. Revis has been ruled out on Sunday. He won't even make the trip.

    Thanks for the update TTF

    I know people say they like the team to be full strength so when we beat them they dont have any excuses. For me I think a bit different. I like when a player of Revis caliber is not playing because of our injuries it evens things out a bit.. I don't remember who backs up Revis but apparently after listening to a New York radio broadcast the announcers were saying its a huge drop off

    Bills had a successful run game against the Jets 195 yards rushing. That would be their weak point I would say

    I agree with the guy who wants to throw it 50 times a game and lets throw it at his replacement

    Re: REVIS IS OUT

    Yep, along with LB Thomas and TE Keller.

    Too bad we will be without Harrison and Troy.

    Troy out and Troy playing hurt is basically the same thing, he's not nearly as effective when he plays hurt.

    If it is his knee again, why wasn't this taken care of on the off season. As much as I like Troy and watching him play, I would say his days of playing are numbered.

    Nobody knows. He is listed as questionable. I believe it will be a game time decision however I am guessing he wont play

    Kyle Wilson, the 3rd CB will be his replacement. He's the guy from Boise State that a lot of people wanted to draft in 2010 instead of Pouncey (or if Pouncey wasn't available). I haven't been following him closely but I think he's decent. However, his backup, the guy who will be the #3 against us, is someone I've never heard of. Ellis Lankster. I bet they do a lot of 3 safeties instead of 3 corners.

    I always like to see a balanced game, but I certainly wouldn't mind going 3 and 4 WR a few times to test the waters.

    Troy is out!

    It seems that James Harrison and Troy Polamalu will not play for the Steelers Sunday, according to a report out of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Gerry Dulac.

    Thanks Snack. Yup thats the name they talked about on the radio show in NY. He cant be very good because they made him sound like William Gay with one leg lol

    Of course anyone playing other then Revis is a downgrade but they made it sound like he was an invalid
