Epic sanchez meltdown. Don't get down on him though... It's just the normal growing pains. Steelers 31 jets 6
That would be the wise thing to do, but ultimately it will be on him to win the game. It's his first time there... ben melted in his first AFCC game, and his first Superbowl, to an extent... sanchez will probably not sleep much Saturday night. He knows what is on his shoulders
its his 2nd AFCCG and he played great in the first one. I know I know its wasnt against the best defense in the universe.
You guys have already proven that you can beat the Steelers and are one of the elite teams of the league at this point, but part of me thinks you just shot your wad against New England. Can Rex Ryan get his team "up" again to play a team that you don't hate as much as New England? You had extra incentives to beat us because we beat you last year and you obviously hate New England. Some may say that the right to go to the Super Bowl shouldn't need extra motivation but I have no doubt in my mind that Rex and the rest of the Jets got in the Patriot's heads. So far in the playoffs, Sanchez hasn't seen anything near as good as the Steelers defense. I know most of you don't care to hear a Colts' fans opinion but I am going to say Steelers 23 Jets 13
yeah because sanchez did not know what was on his shoulders against the pats... way to go with your wishful thinking
No doubt! Not many gave you a snowball's chance in hell to go into Foxboro and win. I didn't think you would win but I thought you would have a decent chance to pull it off. The Jets won at San Diego last year when no one gave them a chance, they did the same in New England this year. I certainly didn't expect another 45-3 beat down. But when you play hated division rivals, especially in the playoffs, anything can happen.
That's just not true... In the post game wrap up Saturday night, both Tunch Ilken and Craig Wolfley were adamant that the Steelers would be playing at home this week. They saw what the jets were going to be able to exploit against the patsies.
You're right, but it's a completely different type of offense IMO, which is going to test the Jets defense in a way that hasn't really been tested yet this postseason. I'm not saying the Jets defense in vulnerable or anything like that but I think preparing for Manning and Brady to throw the ball all over the yard is different then preparing for a smashmouth running team like Pittsburgh with a QB who can make plays and has some escapability unlike Brady.
They are old Steeler players turned local broadcasters. One as an analyst with the other doing color commentary. You just hear patsie patsie patsie talk from the national media because those bumbs are too busy spending their network contract money to be bothered watching the games. ;-)
