Even? We substantially weakened the Steelers by cutting these players.

No Littman is not. Littman makes no decision on who gets paid. He is an accountant. He could care less who gets the money as long as he hits his budget and financial goals that are set to him by Ralph. We all know that he will do exactly what Ralph wants, to the tee. He probably does not know these players at all. With the minimum spending line coming into force in 2013 they will have to spend more anyway.

Jabronis - where did you get that? Been on Bahston to long? Ok everybody, let's not embarrass this guy at work on Monday. Too funny.

Knowing the Pats* and Bellichek, they will still run to TEs and Hernandez's replacement will get an opportunity to perform. They seem to be able to plug players in as needed. If they limit the TE formation than we have to deal with another formation that we have less film on. As good as Hernandez is, this is not a huge a game changer.

Great news. Lets keep it up next week.

Back to yhe question. He was starting, then was injured and could not work himself back into the line up. I think they had a coaching change too. PS - Nice Avatar.

Great answer. How about this ... both Feddy and Spiller run for 100+ yards. Let's keep Brady off of the field. When he does pass we have to hit, even if we are a tad late, we have to hit him.

Why would you even bring this up? Every guy you named is a big part of this team BTW.

No that was one of his rap moves.

Well lets play the game first. Could be we have something that we have not shown yet? We really stacked the run for our last two opponents. Maybe he have a few wrinkles for Tommy Boy.

+1 Good post.

Everybody needs to go to that link and listen to Freddy, David and Fitz. We have a hungry team. This guys have the right temperment.

On the long TD McKelvin had good coverage but was behind the reciever, the problem was the safety Wilson made a late break on the ball. I think Wilson missed that play. McKelvin has a habit of having good position on the reciever but unable to make a play on the ball. He has the speed and tools but just does not seem like a natural football player. Definitely not a smart player at this stage of his career.

Having weapons is a good thing. Spiller is a threat and teamns will account for his presence. Spiller made some plays today too. We really need him to develop.

I will take it. The TD was clutch as the ball was tipped.

Most teams draft DBs high in the draft. It is a critical position and you need 4 good ones. They drafted Williams last year in round 2 and many people here went bonkers. I figured he was good insurance for the aging McGee and the lunk-headed McKelvin. Too bad McGee cannot stay healthy. He has been a very good player for us. True. Remember that the draft used to go 12 rounds years ago. There are good players available after round 7. Some of them just need time. Nelson and Jones are so much better than countless recievers that we used draft picks on.

Not sure when Buddy left SD but I think he was there when they drafted Chandler. He most likey faced Pears when Pears was a Bronco. Urbik has a Whaley connection to Pittsburgh. Hard to say. Buddy loves being a scout and probably talks to lots of scouts through out the league.

Merrill said we have no weaknessess? Wow. His partner on the set pointed out how many points we gave up. Yes, we have weaknesses but lets enjoy the wins.

Spencer has looked good. Keep rotating the big boys up front. Does'nt matter who starts.

I think you are trying to say if they overturned the interception by the review? Yes, in that case there would be one more chapter of pain to the Bills book of pain. The kid should have knocked the ball down with a hard spike straight down to the turf. I looked at the replay several times and he did have the ball first and for the entire time of the play. Had the Raider WR touched the ball at the same time as our DB touched it, it could have potentially been ruled a simultaneous catch and that would have been a TD. We made the play and got the call. Time to be happy. Wannstedt needs to have a talk with the young DB on Monday.

^^^ He is right on both statements.

Agree. I think Andre is better than Irvin.

My flight landed at the start of the second half. As soon as I had awareness of the 21-3 score we started the rally. They needed me.

fixed. Great step in the right direction for this team. This would have been another close loss last year.

I was on travel today. Flight landed at the start of the 3rd quarter, kept in touch by texts while drieing to the sports bar. Maid it to the sports bar for the start of the 4th quarter. What a great game. Not happy with the pass rushing schemes or the tackling but Fitz was a monster. I hope Stevie is ok. I heard Roscoe got hurt too. We need these guys for next week. I will be in Buffalo and at the Pats* game.
