It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Absolutely hilarious to watch the dinosaur Steelers collapse to the Tebows. Superbowl loss followed up by going one and done to an 80 yard Tebow bomb in OT. Couldn't have happened any better to an organization filled with rapists and dirtbags.
And this is a major part of my argument with my ******ed, idiot Steeler fan friends who put fatass Ben up with Brady, Brees, Manning, Rodgers, etc. He leads them to the SB one year, only to miss the playoffs the next. HE typically plays awful in the biggest games, SBs and AFCCs. Throw in the fact that he is a scumbag and I have airtight case.
Well, I DID get to watch MY team in the Superbowl last year. And I would think you Pats fans know a thing or two about one and dones in the playoffs as well. **** happens. We'll be back next year. ;-)
Looks like the Steelers and Patriots will be competing for free safeties in the 2012 NFL Draft.Agreed, but as we all know, Polamalu is NOT a sterotypical SS. He plays the entire field and is often used in pass coverage. Mundy doesn't have the speed to do what Troy CAN do, if schemed properly.
lol...dont fret to much, sometimes set backs are a good thing. Rams kicked our ass Thank you thats very nice of you.An alcohol-induced coma sounds like a pretty good idea right now.
Good luck to your Saints. They look pretty damn good right now. Hoping to see them represent the NFC this year.

Honest question Trigger. Is it weird/annoying to win two superbowls while the Patriots were rebuilding, and while your squad is aging you see the Patriots rapidly on the incline? If it were me it would be a regal annoyance, but there's got to be at least a shred of admiration for a teams ability to literally turnover a roster in two years.
I'd rather spend the money in unrestricted free agency on Dashon Goldson.The way things are going, Edelman may just take the job.
Nah, I don't see it that way I guess. Yes, we're aging in SOME areas, but our offense is relatively young and heading in a positive direction (I'm really impressed by our yound WRs and Redman shows a lot of promise). The game has evolved to a point that you almost need to have some dynamics on Offense. It's getting progressively more difficult to win on defense alone. The Steelers have some big potential for an explosive offense in the years to come.
I wouldn't say that the Pats had a massive turnover...you hit the jackpot with some great young TEs and you have a young RB with some upside now. The receiving corp is still a revolving door, with Welker obviously being the obvious leader. Beyond that, your defense is still a long way away from being elite, and just like my Steelers, not ALL of your gambles pay off (ie. Ochocinco).
For the most part, the Pats and the Steelers both have done a very good job at staying competitive every year (at least for the past several years). I have faith in my organization's ability to keep doing what they do best...draft well and develop players well. Similar to the way I respect the Pats for their offseason moves and ability to develop players.
We both are fortunate to be fans of very solid organizations from the top down. I respect the Pats, but I don't envy them.
Great post, and I'm with you on pretty much everything you said. That being said, don't you wish that the two teams could face eachother at full strength? Like if the '04 Patriots could face the '08 Steelers? It's too bad that the teams we root for seem to win the AFC when the other is down. It'd be awesome if both teams could compete at full strength. It would be a war and an awesome rivalry.
That would be awesome. Unfortunately, injuries happen every year and it's pretty rare for even ONE team to be "complete" on both sides of the ball, let alone TWO. I suppose it could come down to that someday. But one thing for certain...not THIS year. :-(
Thanks for the post though. Good stuff!
It's hard to dislike a team that runs the ball and plays a damn good, physical 34.
Try going to school in the Ohio Valley/Tri-State area and have to be around these morons for 4 years. It's hard to like a team with such an idiot fan base.
Fan bases can be annoying, hell the Patriots have one of the most annoying aggregation of pink helmets in the league.
The thing I have always loved and respected about the Steelers is that they have always honored the soul and spirit of the game. They run the ball, and they play a damn good 34 defense. As football fans, we're obligated to love that.
Where's your blog, Jay? Been waiting for it.
The NFL gets their story line and we don’t have to see the Steelers at all again the rest of the postseason. Win-win.

How about neither?I'd rather see the J-E-S-T win a SB than those bastiches.
Yeah, man, for what it's worth it's too bad the Steelers fell to the injury bug this year. In my mind, a championship isn't real unless the Pats and the Steelers go at it in the playoffs. There's no other team in the AFC I have more respect for than your team. It's hard to dislike a team that runs the ball and plays a damn good, physical 34. Here's to both our teams getting better and more playoff battles in the future.
