Faith Hill at 44 stomps Carrie Underwood at 29 hands down. Funny how sports guys turn everything into a competition... lol!
Playing in Pitt will be a real test. If they lose against Denver, things may be harder for us (they're not going to go 0-2 with a game at home, and they most certainly will not let Tebow burn them for 80 yards). That being said, I think we can put up a good fight against them.
i dont think we do well. it'll be the 2010 afc championship game again. Seems as Bryan Thomas was hurting today and could have been the reason as to why our run D was so porous. But we'll have Sione back and hopefully he performs well. I have no worries about the offense. The Steelers D is old really, and I think Sanchez can gash them. What worries me is if our DLine can be stout against the run.
Steelers d is stout... This is going to be a big test for Jets. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
Looking like a stalemate so far. D is making mistakes. Denver's D looks decent. They wait till its a snowstorm so we can only score 6 points (and win).
Steelers aren't impressing me... but they never impress me (except Troy). They play solid football and have dangerous WRs. Ben looks... easier to tackle... compared to the last time we saw them.
Pittsburgh has a weak o-line and several key injuries on defense. Their RB crew is above average and their WR crew is well above average. The key to the Jets winning this game is to get pressure on Roethlisberger WHILE CONTAINING him. They can't let the bastard run around and create long plays out of broken coverages. Also they cant give up 160+ yards rushing on only 14 carries. The Steelers are better than Buffalo and will take advantage of ToP.
I felt we did great against Fred Jackson. Maybe they didn't prepare for CJ Spiller (especially since he's played like shit his whole career minus today)
the dline will not be a problem, containing the outside run on the other hand could be the difference
From what I've seen so far, pitt's D doesn't instill as much "fear" as it did a few years back. Also their offensive line is in shambles and another guy just got carted off basically so if our D line can get some pressure and actually wrap up rapistberger we should be ok. Also our defense needs to tackle. I expect it to be a hard fought game. Wouldn't be surprised to see either team win
Gilbert RT for the Steelers just got hurt. That's bad news for an oline that is already questionable. Saw him being carried out on a car.
I loved him but he was too injury prone and he's too small to face gronk and hernandez twice a year. Now that we have landry and bell (two hard hitting safeties) it mite make things harder for them.
Roethlisberger always worries me because his ability to get out of the pocket and keep plays alive can really burn a team that blitzes as much as the Jets. On the other hand their secondary is trash, so if Sanchez and the passing game play this well again we'll be in good shape.
