Sounds good to me, he hasn't had any fishy calls now has he?

It's the crew that did the Ravens/Giants SB. Can't find anything about anything controversial involving this crew.

I do know there is plenty of room on the Packer Band wagon, who's with me?

Packers have a good offense... but they make a WHOLE lot of mistakes... kudo's to the Steelers coach's for going prevent to sit on the lead, minimize injuries and run the clock out... an old Cowher strategy... NO WAY the Jets come back form a 24 point drop and win it. In addition, there is a pact between Tomlin and Ryan for the other to not "blow out" or "run up the score" on the other... Ryan talked about this just a few days ago... At halftime, I knew it was a rap...

It looked pretty serious. I doubt he plays next week. He couldn't put any pressure on it and even had crutches later on.

The guy filling with the snaps was okay, but he did screw up a few times.

Are you kidding me, Packs are favorites? What's the money line on this game? I am so doing a happiness hedge.

I cannot stomach another Pittsburgh Super Bowl. It's bad enough as soon as I logged onto Facebook I have to hear about "AMG Stairway to Seven!!!11!!!one!" from every single person I know. Hell, that was starting at halftime. I have no desire to see the Steelers win another Super Bowl.

but.... you'll miss the opportunity to see them lose if the Packers win an you'll have something put on FB and rub it in the faces of Steelers fans.

I'm glad the Steelers won, but I'll be happy if the Packers win the SB.

PACK SHOW BABY!!! the charles woodson jersey will b rocked

[T-Sizz]

I hate the Packers....

but I hate the steelers more.

[ravensdfan]

I only disliked the Packers when it was all about Favre.

Go Packers!

[MsMarvel73]

Said it before and I'll say it again, the Packers have given me a reason to be interested in the SB!!!

Hopin #30 will get a touchdown!!!

GO PACK!!!

Bring the Trophy back home Packers

Don't understand why some of you guys keep saying the "Packers have a chance." Of course they do. Outside of this weeks game against the Bears, they've been on fire! That little phrase can just as easily be applied to the Steelers. The Pack have some serious weapons and a great defense. This will not be an easy game for the Steelers.

My opinion: They have the better o-line but I doubt we'll let them run the ball. We will run the ball. Everything else is pretty much even with regards to key areas and Rodgers and Ben are eerily similar and dangerous with Rodgers having more speed and quickness. Something tells me Clay Mathews won't struggle as much as others in bringing Ben down as he seems to get to the QB at top speed. Though, he may lose that battle with Ben the first time or two.

Personally, I think we should concede the run and focus on hitting WR's (Ala 1990 NY Giants vs Bills).

I hope they make him a story line in these next two weeks. I'd love to hear his thoughts on being cut by us, and our explanation (Bruce Arians ) for it.

Packers are also very good at putting on a show after they've had 'blah' games. Its good that they got their stinker off against the Bears.

They already have six, so you could still see bumper stickers like that.

So glad the Steelers did cut him.....makes giving him the love a heck of a lot easier.

I don't know how much Kuhn would comment on it though. He's never been the type to rehash the past. He did get a ring but I'll be much happier him getting his ring from actually being on the field.

Gahhhh, NFL.com stole my idea for a Super Bowl XLV banner. Dammit.

Yeah, and I want an explanation for us not giving James Harrison more of an opportunity... boy has that come back to bite us in the rear.

This is a good explanation as to perhaps why (from Wikipedia):

[quote]Teammate and fellow linebacker James Farrior later told NFL Network that Harrison was so green early on in his career that he would simply “give up” on plays he was struggling on and would even ask the coaches not to play him when he was struggling.[6] Farrior said, "He was a knucklehead that didn't know the plays. We'd be in practice, in training camp, and he might not know what he doing so he'd just stop and throw his hands up and tell (the coaches) to get him out of there. We thought the guy was crazy.[/quote]

Let's not forget that the Steelers had Harrison for two years on their PS and he was cut three times before he came to Baltimore.
