i think with a healthy defense, we could be on to something. we just need to get our secondary to learn how to tackle and get all of our starters back.

but, our offense just plain sucks. davidson abandons the run when we're down by just 3 points. 4 straight 3 and outs to start the second half can wear down even a healthy defense.

giving fox and delhomme a slight break tonight, i think davidson was our weakest link in this game.

that being said, we are going nowhere with jake. too bad we traded our first round pick. with a 5-11 season, which i think we will end up with, our pick would have netted us a franchise quarterback in the next draft. instead, we get jake for 4 more years! :frown5:

yeah, i was dissappointed with what i saw in preseason. but this is the first game that i really liked the blitz packages. finally! peppers just has to play better than this sorry effort he gave tonight. 11 players with the fire of beason and we'd be hell on defense.

i'm sold on meeks! hell, make him head coach!

    • Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.
    • They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it. 
    • Except it wouldn't be Rodgers leading them on a postseason run, it would be the defense and he's there to not screw up their great games. Which is why..... This times a million. I didn't watch a ton of the Jets last year, but from what I did see, Rodgers himself didn't look like a bum, the team just struggled and was more than likely due to poor coaching on the whole.  The Steelers don't need MVP level Rodgers to win games, they just need him to be good enough to make some plays when it matters because the defense is keeping them in games every week regardless. In their 7 losses last season, the Steelers scored 10, 13, 17, 17, 17, 19, and 24... while giving up 19, 20, 24, 27, 27, 29, and 34 in those games.  With only marginally better offense last year, they probably end up winning a few more games too. They only scored over 27 points in 3 games last season. I think this is a great move by the Steelers and if Rodgers can stay healthy all year, will get them back into the playoffs and could make some noise if their defense is up to the normal level of a Steelers defense.
