    The Steelers will be able to score on the Cardinals, so I don't see them losing by 21 points. Also Carson Palmer throws ints often so if he does this game will be close.

    Those tracks are long gone. I saw them stacked with dead Marines in July 1967. 2/9 was over run and we went in to get them out. The newer ones around 1980's time frame are a lot smaller but got more spead. You wouldn't like tracks if you came out the back of an LPD with them. Now I KID. It is a thing of beauty to see and I was usually in them when I saw. Off the ship, drop in the water, bumping all together then they form a line turn and hit the beach

    Onslow beach I guess. 1972 and 1975 I helped train lifeguards for onslow beach. We would jump from a 15 ft tower and grab them in a headlock as they swam in a circle passing under us, taking them to the bottom. 11 ft pool. their job was to save us, our job was to keep them from saving us. Never a drowning on the beach from those classes. we would start with 125-150 students. 75 of them went to be lifeguards at the beach. Not sure if a drowning ever happened when the beach was manned by Marine Lifeguards

    Where did you get palmer throws picks often? In 5 games he has 13 TDs and only 3 picks, thats pretty damn acurate if you ask me...

    Gotta say I'm a little skeptical about this one as well...... at first I thought because we are playing at home and Bryant is likely back that it would make a difference but all one has to do is look at what transpired in last weeks game vs. the Chargers just about each and every time Vick rolled out to throw..... he should have been picked at least 3-4 times....and the fact that he hasn't found a way to get our best wide out Brown utilized is concerning.... these Cardinals have the most takeaways @ 11... so if Vick plans on going downfield, he better know who's around ... I guess it has more to do with time spent with each receiver and knowing their capabilities and or tendencies to get open when needed. Protection will be highly important for Vick in this one....he will need time but if the Steelers are going to make hay in this game, they will need to mix the run in with a ton of screen / short passes to stay in good form cause the Cardinals are VERY stingy against the run as well..... Bell and our " O " line will need a HUGE effort today... it may be the deciding factor I would think as much as turnovers will be !!

    Not giving up on them today.... I think they can win this one, it's not like we're playing world beaters as it sounds to be with the majority of the media.( outside of Pittsburgh I'm sure anyhow ) ..but if the run game doesn't work and we abandon it, we might be doomed .... as for the D..... hopefully Allen is back but as stated in previous post, coverage in the middle of the field has been non existent, cannot happen here in this one. Bring it to Palmer, make sure he knows who he really is when push comes to shove !!

    GO STEELERS ( North of The Border ...EH !! )

    I mean Palmer in his career throws ints, he has done a better job this season though.

    Hav
    Probably a high scoring game. We will need Vick to step up big time . I suspect the targets should be DHB and Bryant . I think the Cards will put Petterson on Brown imo not to smart to test him to often with Vick ....

    I believe Arizona will look to completly shut down Bell, and make Vick beat them.,, So far this season Vick has been below average at best IMO

    I love our offense.. But with Vick at the helm, I don't think we survive a shootout. Idk if Vick can even go stride for stride with Palmer as far as that goes.. The cards are definitely going to zero in on Bell today. They're gonna force Vick to win this game with his arm.. Gonna need the defense to step up big. I think AB could have a big game if he gets some chances. Heyward and Tuitt need to be on Palmer all day.

    I told you Palmer throws picks, cost the Cardinals the game with the int in the endzone.

    Little did you know that Vick would not be the QB in the second half and that Landry Jones would pull a miracle out of his butt and throw 2 TDs. You people give up too easy. I think the Steelers can win every time they go on the field. They are only about 4 field goals away from being undefeated this season. And it looks like we have that hole plugged now.

    Actually tomlin said in his [post game presser he had no intention of pulling vick out untill he pulled his hammy, and ive been 1 of landry jones strong supporters here saying all along he needed to get his chance to play with the starters before all of his haters wrote him off, and I was right that there was no scenario to win this game with vick playing....

    Just because he threw 2 picks in this game, there was no indication from his 13-3 pick record he would do it in this game, and you didnt know that he would, guesses work sometime, but in the end the picks wouldnt have mattered if vick had stayed in the game....
