    When I read the title "one and done" I thought for sure they were talking about the losers of their last 3 games, the default champions of the AFC West. Tebow is no Matt Hasselbach. With Ben's injury the game will not be as pretty as you like. But it doesn't matter. A win is a win is a win is a win. Personally, I think the Steelers D played a hell of a lot better than did the Packer's D. Just hold on to the ball and this team, best for Points Against in the league, will not give up many points. We all look at the potential of this offense and get disgusted that they don't score 30+ points per game. But they don't have to. They just have to score more than their opponents. For all of the potential heart attack finishes this year, we really only had one. That game is the difference between Baltimore thinking they've accomplished something and not having done so.

    Give us 4 ugly 1 point wins and we'll all be happy as can be!

    We need to improve in some areas that's a no brainer and it's ok to be critical to a certain degree, but the constant fire Arians, Mendy sucks, Bens a Drama queen, Gilbert is a bust, Hood is a bust, Farrior is old and slow, William Gay sucks, Poly can't tackle, our O-line stinks and on and on type stuff gets old after a while. It goes beyond having an opinion about what is supposed to be your favorite team. The same people complaining about all this stuff will be the first in line to buy the new SuperBowl hat this year. I love the Steelers and root for this team every week. I get frustrated at some of the play calling just like others do, but i wouldn't start a rediculous thread like "one and done". Probably the same people who are always on here asking where can I watch the game or listen to it? What Steeler fan doesn't have Sunday Ticket or know a sports bar that's showing the game. Really?[/quote]




    People like me who aren't of legal drinking age and don't have the means for direct TV. Don't jump to conclusions.

    It's the playoffs. We will be fine.

    On a lighter note, did anyone else think of Joey Porter (SB 40 playoff run) when you first heard that we would be playing in Denver next week? LOL!

    diehardsteel, I'm backing SteelerGlen on the FIRE BRUCE ARIANS IMMEDIATELY comment. Any chance to let it be known that this guy should be gone is a good comment. His time is up for real. He doesn't have to really be fired unless he wants to come back because his contract is up after the season is over. The offense has steadily regressed since he became OC. There are so many situations that prove it. What else do you need to see that proves to you that Arians has no clue as far as being a competent OC. Lets hope that the Steelers do something out of the ordinary and hire Norv Turner to be the new OC, if he is let go by the Chargers. As I always say, Bruce Arians couldn't carry Norv Turners jock strap as far as being a competent OC.

    And please, don't let me get into all the reasons why Arians should be gone as the Steelers OC because there are to many reasons to list. Let me say these few things. First of all, Arians went back to his old ways after Mr. Rooney made his wishes known about him working on running the football a priority last year. He went right back to all the passing which hasen't worked this year. They scored 7 against the Ravens in the first game, 10 against the Texans, 17 against the Jaguars all in the first half, 13 against the Chiefs, 14 against the Browns in the first game, 3 against the 49ers, and 13 against the Browns on Sunday. Thats 17 points or less in 7 games. Thats sad for an offense with so much talent, and supposely a high powered offense that was suppose to score so many points this year.

    Also, Arians got rid of all the legit full backs and started using TE's as lead blockers, (see former Steelers full back John Kuhn of the Packers who made the Pro-Bowl). There are many more reasons, need I say more?[/quote:16lflupl]
    I think you mis-read me somewhere. I never said fire Arians, i said it gets old listening to people who are supposed to be true Steelers fans complain about everything. We're 12-4 get on the bandwagon and stop whinning. :towel:

    Anyone you has been a Steelers Fan for any length of time knows sometimes we just never make it easy on ourselves when seeding takes place but, once in we rise to the occasion and take care of our business. We will play the Ratbirds for the right to represent the AFC in SB46 "HERE WE GO STEELERS" :rawk:

    Yes! I still go back and watch that one from time to time. It was total domination. One of those games that YOU KNEW the Steelers meant business. Great game. Great SB run. Let's do it again! Get Tebow pouting like 'ol Jake Plummer was during that game. :towel:
