TROY POLAMALU!!!

Sorry, never gets old. Well, not to me anyway.

No, no it doesn't.

 

[BradyToAmendola]

Amendola looking good! :rocker:

 

[Big-T]

Dobson wide open on both of Amendola's big plays, good signs!

 

[pherein]

no, but if you asked ben he'd probably have something wrong with him.

because their is something wrong with him. Never liked Ben even when I defended him. Even Freeman would have made that pass.

 

[Ozymandias]

This Steelers secondary though

 

[DefenseRules]

THAT WAS NICE!!
awesome :rocker:

Brady's throws are very sharp

The receivers are making plays. It's funny how a QB looks sharp when his receivers are making plays. I've been looking for all those who declared Brady was done. They're being really quiet today.

Amendola gets open 40 yards down the field. This is good

 

[ausbacker]

Is it just me or is Brady getting the ball out noticeably faster today?

Other than a potential fine, what's the downside of taking a shot at your opponent after they score a TD? You can drill the QB well after the fact or take a shot at a defenseless receiver who just made an end zone catch. Unless it's the end of the game and it gives your opponent a deeper kick for an onside kick, the penalty of moving up the kick off is really no deterrent at all since they moved up the kick off.

Two catches, 91 yards

ITs because of decent protection + WR being WIDE open + pitt playing some strange defense . Brady was never 'gone' to be 'back' in my opinion.

 

[Wrath Mania]

Honestly I think he's had a fast ball all year. There's just been no rhythm and no one to throw it to.

This Steelers secondary though

It's not the first bad secondary we've seen them play this season, though. However, I get your point.

 

[TheTruth3402]

Wendell gets deposited into Brady's lap...

 

[DefenseRules]

Saw that sack coming.

 

[PP2]

Ridley sucks! Blount's clearly the better Rb! Why isn't McDaniels using him?



Fire Josh!

Ridley is at his best when he has opportunities to get to the 2nd level. This is what Pitts is denying him. Better to use a bruiser like Bolden or Blount at this point until things open up a little.

Can we find a fatty O lineman somewhere? Please???

If I were BB, I would go for the onside kick in that situation at least some of the time.

Did **** LeBeau forget he needed press man in '11 to halt Brady's dominance of him?

This is why. The zone defense helps brady.
