I watched the Broncos beat up the Stealers last night. Both sides of the ball the Broncos dominated the Stealers physically most of the game. Looks as if the Stealers have become a pass happy finesse team.

The Steelers are still a force. I was amazingly frustrated last night when Ben was able to convert 3rd down after 3rd down regardless of the yardage they had to make.

That said, I was just as happy when they lost last night as I would be by a Bengals victory tonight. Porter's interception had me jumping out of my chair :cheers:

The only football I watched yesterday was a small part of the Broncos/Steelers game and I was HAPPY with that outcome.

Here's to hoping the Bengals find some motivation at the thought of ending week 1 in sole possession of first place.

I have school tonight, but the DVR is fired up and ready to go.

Now I just have to keep people from talking to me about the game so I can get home and watch.

It's great to see the Steelers take one on the chin in week one but we still can't take them lightly. It was just a yr ago that they got pummeled 35-7 in week one yet they went on to the playoffs and came within one fingertip catch by Torrey Smith of winning the division

Yeah, always take the first week with a grain of salt. That said, I haven't seen Toothlessberger put on his a$$ that much before. There were a couple sacks late that looked just like the kind of jailbreaks Palmer used to get swarmed by here. The Pitt o-line is going to get Ben killed.

Meanwhile, I took some time over a cup o' joe this morning to browse some Browns forums, and as you might expect it's a full-scale nuclear meltdown. Weeden sucks, Richardson sucks, bring back Colt, fire Shurmur, etc. Loads of fun.

I still have a horrible feeling about tonight's game and think the Bengals are going to be on the wrong end of a blowout, but since the worst-case scenario is now...

Baltimore 1-0

Cincinnati 0-1

Cleveland 0-1

Pittsburgh 0-1

...I find myself much more relaxed.

Couple of facts for your amusement and awe :P

Payton mannings first game as a colt - 1td 4 turnovers

Andrew lucks first game as a colt - 1td 4 turnovers

Oooooooo Erie

Brandon weedons 5.1 QB rating lowest by a starting rookie QB since the 60's lol lol lol

I hope next week isn't a trap game for the Bengals. In spite of Weedon, the Browns easily could have and probably should have won this game.

Nice to see the Steelers lose their first game too.
