    Please, please, please, like James Brown said. Time to get rid of FAT KEMO & SOFT SOCRATES MENDENHALL

    Soft Socrates Mendenhall with his high running soft self. I am convinced that he is not the one. This man had four tries, count them four tries from the three yard line to get into the endzone and he got his butt kicked, all the while Redman is standing on the sidelines watching. Redman is probably thinking on the sidelines, they have absolutely no respect for my talents at all. I would have gotten that ball into the endzone. That as a sorry display as a running back in the NFL. For the life of me, I can't understand how Arians can do the stupid stuff that he does. Redman is your money back in short yardage situations, not Socrates Mendenhall. I swear, this boy is soft as cotten. I'm screaming at the TV saying where is Redman!!! My wife who knows very little about football is saying that is absolutely unexceptable while watching Mendenhall getting stopped four times from the three yard line. This is what I have to say about that,
    FIRE BRUCE ARIANS IMMEDIATLY and send SOCRATES MENDENHALL with him. Send them both packing. I'm sure the Steelers can do better in the draft or free agency then Mendenhall.

    Number 2, that was the last stand for FAT KEMO. His time is up. Send him packing along with Mendenhall and Arians. He is absolutely a detriment to the team. This man played about two and a half quarters and got about three penalties. One time he got called for holding and his man almost sacked Ben. If you are going to get called for holding, your man should not put pressure on the QB. You talk about shooting your self in the foot. He single handily killed some drives with his penalties.

    If you don't agree with getting rid of these three detriments to the team it makes no difference. My opinion is never going to change until they are gone. It's time to make a change. A change is gonna come. Vote these clowns out of town.

    FIRE BRUCE ARIANS IMMEDIATELY & GET RID OF SOCRATES MENDENHALL & FAT KEMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sir, please. I watched the whole game, and Mendenhall didn't do enough, like he never does enough. He is who we thought he was, a soft high running, dancing, scared running back. He shys away from contact. Two things for you. Redman had only 6 touches in the game for a 5.8 yard rushing average, Mendenhall ran the ball 18 times for a 4.2 yard rushing average. Now imagine if Redman carried the ball 18 times. I bet he scores a TD down their inside the three yard line. He would have made the game much easier.

    Times is up for BA, Mendenhall, & KEMO. They all need to be ran out of town. Sick and tired of the Bs.

    FIRE BRUCE ARIANS IMMEDIATELY & GET RID OF MENDENHALL & KEMO NOW!!!!!!!

Didnt do enough? what is enough? the Oline is horried! he ran hard all nite made contact got extra yards and first downs! you say BA dont know how to call a run game then you say Mendy didnt do enough which is it? :herewego!:

    As far as I'm concerned, when Ben came back out in the 3rd quarter and started snapping every play to Rashard, I was very impressed. The man was picking up first downs on every run and power pushing his way down the field. It's not his fault they had 2 drives where he made up the majority of the yardarge and they resulted in no points.

    Yep, the YPC stat is always misleading.

    Mendenhall had a good game, and I can't really understand the hating, edogg. I don't know why the coaches didn't put Redzone Redman in when we were in the Redzone, as he would have probably done better - but there you go.

    The real point being missed here is this:

    FIRE CHRIS KEMEOATU IMMEDIATELY

    I was impressed with how Mendy picked it up after Ben's injury. He looked like he was running to protect BB. Maybe that's what we'll see while Ben heals - and hopefully after.

    Remembering Deuce Staley is easy. Remembering him playing is far, far more difficult.

    Man, I remember thinking we'd done so well in picking him up as a FA...

    Its both. Mendenhall never does enough because he is incapable. BA does not know how to develop a running game, and anyone who doesn't know that Redman is a better back then Mendenhall doesn't understand football very well. One big thing about Arians is that he has the O-Line using the wrong blocking scheme. Our lineman are not good at zone blocking. They do better when they line up and go one on one. Arians also is the one who got rid of all the legit Full Backs and changed the whole philosophy to this pass happy offense which is going to get Ben killed. As we can all see it doesn't work. Ben has been sacked more then any QB in the league since BA has been the OC. So don't give me that crap about Redman getting the ball less stuff. If he got the ball as many times as Mendenhall his average would still be better. Plus he has heart which Mendenhall doesn't with his high running self. Redman stays low and uses his shoulders and power to move the pile. Mendenhall just stands up and gets blasted more often then none.

    I don't always agree with how BA uses Mendenhall but I think he had a good game last night, especially in the 2nd half when everyone knew we weren't going to throw it much. He ran hard, fought for extra yards and kept plays alive. There are times he tries to hit the homerun too often but last night was not one of those nights. He took what he could get.

    I like Redman and wish they would use him more, especially down by the goal line but I think we have a pretty good one two punch.

    This is a passing league and we have the weapons to pass with the big boys. You don't take Ferrari and then drive it in first gear because you are afraid of the power. Ben while he holds the ball too long, makes plays. Last night that trying to make a play got him hurt, but not because of bad line play. He held it too long.

    The key is Kemo is awful, he needs to be cut at the end of the season. You can't cut him now since we need the depth with Pouncey having ankle issues.

    Redman is noththing more then another Richard Huntley Eric Pegram ect ect and its clear that YOU are the no who doesnt know football if you think it a good idea to run a subpar situational RB and not throw as much when we have the BEST WR corps in the NFL two of them being top 5! a Top 5 TE and take a homerun teat like Mendy off the field for a back who might get you 2 3 yards! everyone needs to knows its not Bettis run run run the only reason Cowher ran Bus so hard is because we NEVER had a QB! :herewego!:

    Just as you thought edog wasn't being fair to Mendy you're doing the same thing to Redman. I remember Huntly and Pegram well and Redman's a cut above both of those guys. It was the Steelers themselves at the beginning of the year who touted Redman as their short yardage tough guy so then not to use him in those situations is a mystery to say the least especially when he gains positive yardage on every touch of the ball.

    Mendenhall completely screwed up on the goal situation. He should have cut left instead of right on one of those plays. That said he played good. Kemo on the other hand has got to go.

    We need a left guard with our first pick next year.

    im just saying Redman is a situational RB same as them he may be better but still a situational short yardage RB! i used Huntly and Pegram as EX of guys who had GREAT averages because they hardly ever got the ball they had a role they played same as Redman and the role is not a Starter!
