My side hurts.....

Try laying on your back... you may find it easier.

 

[Dude]

So glad that Broncos fan uber jinx dude ain’t here. What was his name?

 

[sonnyblack65]

My side hurts.....

You need to deflate your ball, sounds like to much air in it

 

[flyingelvis]

Steelers winning in Foxboro?

 

[BigKen]

I want to see Big Ben trying to get away from the Pats DL. 20 sacks in 4 preseason games and the starters were on the bench....... yikes.

Mayo is pushing this "attack" defense and it's responding. No one is loafing because Mayo is taking guys out who don't push the OL back into the QB.

Steelers O line is a big strength for them but I agree the pats D will scheme to send different guys from every direction. They will be tough to match up against if they are successful.

Not nice to call Tomlin names

oh we don't mind

 

[Dude]

This will be a good game to set the tone in AFC.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

bump

Steelers, because it wouldn't be right if the Patriots didnt do well in September to prompt the "are they finished?" talk just for them to go on a rub.

Fuck you too

Pats win in a close game.

 

[bksballer89]

Will be stunning if the Pats don't win by double digits

I was going to ask if this was a Kraftism?

 

[PatsFan2003]

On paper it looks like a Pats W but if there's a time to play the Pats its in September. I'd lean Pats but it wouldnt stun me if Pittsburgh pulled it off.

I agree. The Pats are always vulnerable in September as Belichick continues to experiment.

 

[PatsFan2003]

even hornier

pats roll

SNL skit??

 

[ATL96Steeler]

Patriots should take this one.

The return of real NFL football is less than a week away, comrades. Enjoy the Labor Day weekend. Early posting since we got a gap in terms of NFL ball.

I'm going to refrain from picking (just won't pick against my team, unless there is some real green on the line and I cut that out some time ago).

Big test for both teams imo...all the talk is Brown and Bell out, but the Steelers revamped DEF is the bigger concern for me. They might still lose this game, but I'm anxious to see them get after a very good team.

 

[Pure Steel]

Will be stunning if the Pats don't win by double digits

Bet the house, the lines at 6......

Sounds like strength against strength...Ben is not as nimble as he used to be, so if he holds it trying to make the big play, I could see him going down a few times, but generally speaking I'm not too concerned about any DL just running roughshod over the Steelers OL.
