[QUOTE="IPBprez, post: 2304, member: 51"] Several of the pundits on Sports Talk Shows are saying: 1> conflicting statements about Big Ben being an asset of liability (You choose!) 2> in 14 starts with Big Ben behind center - using a mixture of the running game and passing game in equal measure the Steelers are 14-0.. before that with Maddox.. they are 0-1 -- Is that a fair discertation? Probably not - but Maddox was at the helm all last year and look where they ended up. 3> While Big Ben threw two INT's during the Jets game, one for a TD (the other way) - ithey are, I think, the only INT's he's had all year... but I'd have to verify that with real stats, not rhetoric on TV. 4> The Steelers ARE the onlly Team to ruin Belichick's winning streak.... After that, it was the Dolphins and basically the Team quit trying that hard since the streak was over... Belichick didn't say anything as (well) they were winning pretty consistently... at that point, why cry over a small smidgeon of spilt milk. Right? It'd be childish whinning! Belichick's a PROFESSIONAL and certainly knows how to break down film - You can bet he'll still be reviewing the Jets game. Bottom line - I think the Home Team(s) have to prove why they are the tops in their Divisions - the heavy hand is not on the Patriots - BUT - just the same, the Steelers have Bettis who has been only running the 1yd TD's in while Staley (former Eagles RB, btw) has been doing the lion's share of the work... and now that's he's not exactly healthy - for a long time in many seasons, THE BUS "IS" HEALTHY... and THAT, my friends, speaks volumes..... AND GET THIS - Everyone all across the Country is rooting for the Steelers... Everyone! Must be they're tired of the Ted Turner scenarios playing out for hhe Pats this decade - they'd all like to see a change. NOTE - The Eagles D cannot stop the Steelers running Game - Won't happen - Trotter or no Trotter. While the Donatell D is waaay better this year than what the Falcons had last year - it (I think) still wouldn't make a diff... I really like Donatell and wish him all the best - but it won't happen this year.... (Ya think Sherman is grinding molars about him (Donatell) going to the NFC Champ game and not Sherman & the Packers...?) [/QUOTE]
