I Really Hate Games Like This!!!!!

[Goldsteel86]

Please try to understand, I am not doubting the Steelers, however I really hate going on the road in primetime facing an 0 - 2 team. I hate to use the expression "Trap Game" but I have to worry it might be. I really hope the Steelers don't take this game lightly, look at the Seahawks last week, Ben almost saw his season go by the wayside. I would really like to see the Steelers pound the ball, I would really like to see alot more of Ike Redman, with some possesion throws to Hines, Antonio, Emmanuel and Wallace. Maybe I am just a little too paranoid, just a thought!

I think the fact it's a primetime game they won't fall into the trap so easily. nobody wants to look like crap when everybody's watching

Don't remember the exact stat, but as I recall Tomlin's pretty good in prime time.

Tomlin ain't playing!

Everyone knows Tomlin isn't playing, I believe we have all made that observation, the fact of the matter is sarcasim may not be funny tomorrow night if the Steelers have a game like they opened up with. Alot of Steeler faithful have not forgot, and as alot have read one win or one game doesn't mean anything.

In that case, wouldn't that apply to week one's game as well?

[Goldsteel86]

Interesting fact, I guess it would but the question is what stands out more in your mind, beating a near pulseless Seahawk team or losing your first game of the season, a division game, to your biggest rival, which one do you remember?

[Dodens Grav]

Just because you remember it more doesn't mean it's more representative. In fact, that's normally not the case.

I'm confident that we'll win but I think we are going to be facing a desperate Colts team also not wanting to get embarrassed on prime time. I think they are going to show up big for this one. I'm thinking they are going to give us a run for our money, at least in the first half - possibly into the third.

I'm sure they are well aware it is a conference game - and especially after losing a division/conf game to Ravens. I liked hearing what everyone thought of beating the Seahawks. They are still grape squashers and the stench of the wk 1 defeat is still on them, yada,yada,yada . . .

We'll be good, but won't be shocked to see it close for 3/4 of the game.
