SEAHAWKS @ STEELERS - Game Thread - September 18th, 2011

I feel bad for the Seahawks. They'll be playing a very angry Steelers D today.

Anybody else watching?

Only if you're paying me $100!

Or the SeaBags somehow keep it close...

 

[Card Magnet]

:shock: Seahawks with a goalline stand. There's some bad news though, the Seahawks take over on their own goalline.

 

[gt2590]

SeaBags OVER/UNDER on total yards: 225. :lol:

and Panthers up 7-0 early. :shock:

 

[gt2590]

I LOVE how the one Steeler no one started in FF just went 20 yards to score...

The Seahawks are terrible.

 

[Card Magnet]

Roethlisberger gets up limping with trainers. It shouldn't really matter; they always do about the same regardless of who QBs them.

BATCH TIME!

 

[Card Magnet]

Roethlisberger returns on third down still grimacing, throws an incomplete pass, and the Steelers get a field goal to go up 17-0.

 

[Card Magnet]

They're playing Roethlisberger ::facepalm:: . He was visibly in pain and is out there limping.

The Steelers are up 17-0, and the Seahawks have yet to move the ball. Batch should be in there with a conservative run heavy offensive gameplan. He's good enough to manage the game. Let the grizzled vet come in and feed the ball to Mendenhall/Redman, and save your franchise QB. If not to save him further injury, but because he is going to be limited on the move and it might mess with his passing stance.

I was watching the Seahawks.. but I decided to switch the channel and watch Hasselbeckl.. It's nice to see what he can do with an O-line.. Something Seattle has needed for awhile.. I don't care which QB you put in Seattle, no o-line.. they will get sacked, rushed to throw, etc all day.. Frustrating to watch..

 

[Card Magnet]

The Steelers are just being dicks now. They would deserve to have Roethlisberger further injured with having him in there all pass happy when they're up 24-0 and the Seahawks have less than 110 yards total offense.

The Steelers are just being giving the Seahawks what they deserve for being so pathetic

No way. If they were handing off and were running rampant over them, then sure. But to go out and have Wallace and co. go deep every play is just being a dick at this point in the game.

Anybody check if NFL.com is taking Orders for Seahawks Luck jerseys yet? :twisted:

I disagree. After playing such a piss poor game last week, what good would handing it off almost every play do for the entire offense? It might be good for the running game, but the WR's wouldn't be getting any work. They're also not going deep just to go deep, they're taking what Seattle is giving them.

Exactly, I mean if Seahawks dont want them to go deep man up and play better D

 

[mstng99tim]

The Seahawks for the first time today are in the Steelers territory...it's the 4th quarter.

I'll give you that you make a valid point. However, I still don't see six straight passing plays, which included two first down passes (three if you count first and long after a penalty), as being justified at that point in the game. Some ground game should have been in there, not shotgun passes.

I'm usually all about the "If you don't want me to do it, stop me", but I do believe there's a line between playing dominantly and just rubbing it in.

 

[mstng99tim]

Stop hatin'.

 

[Card Magnet]

Poor T-Jack is getting into the fetal position so that he doesn't get hit anymore. :lol:

Stop hatin'.

I haven't even begun to hate.
