Whoo hoo!! So now we have to cheer for the Raiders next week?!? I really don’t care to do that but if the rats don’t get in, that’ll put a smile on my face. Too bad the Colts laid down for the Jets today woulda made next weekend even more fun to watch and follow. There were plenty of heart attack plays in today’s game to keep me on the edge of the couch. I’m with “O” as for the rare live steelers games and struggle to find them unless certain friends or family are home at game time. Thank you Chris for helping to keep us outsiders on the inside of what’s going on. Hope you all had a good safe holiday.

Steve, you and I must be watching different William Gays. Although I admit I probably went overboard calling him the worst ever as Chad Scott, Duane Washington and my personal favorite, Tim McKyer, were all much much worse.

But Gay isn’t even remotely as good as Ike Taylor. Yes, Ike has been torched for several big plays this year and has phoned it in on many occasions. He did do a good job against Chad Johnson, Derrick Mason, and Brandon Marshall, though. And teams still target Gay on like 75% of their passes so they’re practically telling you who is the weak link in the secondary.

I do agree with you on Burnett. He needs more experience but I think he could be a player.

O, I hear you. MLB allows people to access every team and every game over the web, the NCAA put all the March Madness games online, I think hockey streams most of their out of market playoff hockey games, even WWF allows you to buy pay per views on your computer. It sucks that the NFL is still stuck in 1982 when it comes to giving out of town fans access to the game of their choice.

Then again, the networks pay about a billion dollars each to the NFL so I guess they don’t want to kill the golden goose.

Um… Gay is fine. When you compare him to Duane Washington. Donell Wollford anyone? And our #1 pick Chad Scott was a total winner. And those guys played when it was still a “running” league. I’ve seen my man Ike taylor blow more coverages this year than in all of his other years combined. Now if he could somehow learn to catch a football William Gay would look a lot better. Burnett will be good. Cmon random chance, please let us make the playoffs…

haha ratbirds, what a lame nickname. anyway i can see demetrius williams lighting up the sorry steelers secondary, which is much more worse off then the ravens, along with rice to pull this game out. as long as big ben doesnt make another miracle throw at the last second, then the ravens will deservedly win this one.
