Supposedly the Patriots hosted Barlow to learn Steeler's offense. I hope this is a joke or else we have some real paranoid fans around the league.....quite embarrassing.

Wow.. yeah it has nothing to do with the fact that our #1 back has missed the last 3 games and his backup might be out a month. I have to say though, I do love the fact that the Patriots make the fans of so many other teams paranoid.

The Pats have schooled those big talkers and chest thumpers so many times, it's not unrealistic for Steeler fans to think the Pats have been calling their plays.

BB is simply validating the shadow RB roster in the event that ANOTHER RB gets injured B4 Morris returns in December. Nothing more.

Pats vs. Steelers gameplan since 1994:

8 in the box, stuff the run make Niel O'Donnel, Kordel Stewart, Ben Rothiesburger beat you.


I'm pretty sure that we didn't need Barlow to tell us this.

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

We faced Dick Lebeau's D tons of times.

What else is there to learn.

The Steeler's like to think that the Pats fear them somehow and are looking for an edge.

Tools.

Sorry, but the only people that should be embarassed are the Steeler fans that actually came up with this.

The game is two months from now. Yeah I'm sure they went over the gameplan for the Pats during training camp, and I'm doubly sure that the Pats are thinking about the Pittsburgh game this week.
