So nice to see our center not getting blown backwards after the snap.

Isn't it telling that Rabach couldn't even pass a physical with the Ravens. Last year when he went out, Montgomery played better. Next week Rabach rushed himself back out there and the line play sucked once again. The guy was all about saving his position. Glad he's gone.

He'll get picked up after someone looses a tailback to injury...

Keep in mind though that Sonny was saying it was 1's against the 2's

What? No. They are both the same... it's a live feed... and pretty high quality, at that.

Just sayin, but it appears that our starting O played the whole first half. How long has Pittsburg's starting D been out, and if for a while, why is our starting O not doing better against the scrubb d?

Not the first 2 possessions... and, they were moving pretty easily against both...

It's not that black and white. There was a mix of 1's and 2's on both sides of the ball.

The Steelers are playing vanilla and SO ARE WE. However, we're seeing EXECUTION and MISTAKE FREE football. That's a great sign.

Keep this in mind. Coaching staff seems to have their attention. Nice change from years past.

After tonight that may well change.

Not from what I've seen so far.

Our back-ups on O are stinking it up in this half so far.

Special Teams stinkin' it up tonight. Banks being the lone exception

Good to see Mike Sellers still missing blocks.

Robinson... way to go, rook! (we need a sarcasm smiley... )

Now they're getting the hang of it!

Very deep in running backs

I have had trouble sleeping for months.

However, I suspect I'll be sleeping better than Shane Graham tonight.

Graham Gano needs a shot at a 65 yard FG...

Why do you say that? Rex is better than people give him credit for. His problem is TO. If he can cut them in half Rex is good enough.

I like Rex. No one gives him any credit but some Bears fans will tell you his Super Bowl run had a lot to do with him in the first half of that season. Give him the chance as a fan. I only hope the coach's do.

Robinson... drops another... 'course, I believe Banks dropped a few last preseason...

Rexy is going to start the year.

Yeap Rex played solid. Rex will be the starter. If Beck can play better than that then I will do 100 push up's. lol.

I think all the talk about Beck being the starter is just away for Shanny to get some fire into the Q.B's around here.
