Deep pass to Wallace seems Ok - Ben just missed.
I know many think Troy is past his prime, but now would be a good time to see one of his Tasmanian Devil returns. An interception, tipped ball,...
You should post the pics - that's a great story. I met Mean Joe Green at a department store signing autographs back in the late 70s. He was...
Here are a few more stats for your entertainment: Green-Ellis: 263 attempts, 1080 yards, 6 TDs, 4.1 yds. ave. Dwyer: 131...
I, too, have been a little disconnected this year. I think it is a combination of the passive style of play and several of my favorite players...
I was looking at the stats for RBs, and here are the stats for Dwyer and Ellis-Green: Dwyer: 131 attempts, 532 yards, 2 TDs Green-Ellis:...
I was just reflecting on the scores of games this season, and 7 of the 14 games were decided by 3 points or less - 3 wins and 4 losses. With one...
Nothing will suck the life out of a team faster than them playing scared to make a mistake, like fumbling, and knowing they will get benched if...

An article dissecting some of the play calling by Haley & Ben:...
I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, and my football fan DNA was created during the late 70s Steel Curtain days. I came to expect not only...
That article is a little deceptive. On several of the plays where Miller was open, so was someone else for a completion, and on others Ben had no...
So if it plays to his strengths, why not use it more. Tomlin kept saying when Ben was hurt that they would tailor th e game plan to the QB's...
There is that, and then why not run to the outside? I know Dwyer is a straight ahead guy, but with Mendy''s speed, why not some outside plays?
:this!:
Shoulda stripped the ball.
Yea, it is puzzling. Ben's apparent success in the no huddle (todays' game notwithstanding), goes against his apparent weakness in audibling...
We are almost always in every game, so anything can happen, but I wish a few Ws would fall our way. Good things can happen.
I have wondered about our weird running game, too. Why are our backs so far back, and why does Ben have to run to them. Shouldn't they be full...
Ben can scramble, yes, but it also takes a line to protect him (occasionally), and receivers to run round and eventually get open. Heath cannot be...
