Don't get me wrong, I love the Steelers They have been my favorite team since I was a kid. But they are annoying the heck out of me this year. Here are my various and sundry rants:
- The Patriots have provided the blueprint on how to beat the Steelers--pass it towards Anthony "Big Mouth, no talent" Smith. Rumor has it that he's going to be benched. If only it came two games sooner.
- It's called tackling, guys! Fred Taylor is so brittle that his ACL would snap if you looked at it long enough. This past Sunday he looked like the freaking Juggernaut.
- You have to get up for playing the opponent. Arizona was so desperate they were going with a quarterback by committee. They beat us. Every pundit said that Denver would be a cakewalk. They beat us. Jacksonville is a warm weather team and the Steelers never lose at home. They beat us. Don't believe the hype! Play every team like the won the Super Bowl last year.
- We are now tied with the Browns for the divison lead. We hold the tie breaker, so as long as we stay tied, we win the divison. However, Cleveland has a relative cake walk in Cincinnatti on the road and San Francisco at home. The Steelers have road games tonight at St. Louis and next week at Baltimore. St. Louis is one of those "should win" games that the Steelers are famous for losing. And Baltimore always plays the Steelers tough no matter what the record. They have gone from being in contention for the number two seed to being in serious danger of losing the division title. And if the lose their two games and Tennesse wins their next two games against the Jets and Indianapolis, and the Browns win one game, the Steelers won't even make the playoffs. Yikes!
