I'd say John's stretching it with Palmer and Dalton....Romo too. Vick isn't scary anymore. Now they are good QB's, but not 'Murders'.

 

Rivers and Eli are the 2 that seem to own the Ravens now.

 

The Ravens secondary will be very solid so it's all up to the front 7.

Oh...the rest of the division has to face these guys too.

 

Poll: Should I dress like this when I visit my daughter in boarding school this weekend?

So much broke well for the Ravens last yr. There will be no sweep of the AFCN and catching teams while they are weak. I agree that not all those guys are scary.

Joe owns the Stealers of late..

 

Bring the other ones on they dont scare anybody, tune up the John Deere cart caus Pay-A-Ton is going to need it.

 

And dam it I better hear Elway Sucks chants throughout the stadium when Denver comes to B-More., I want it as loud as is was in 1983 at Memorial..

I was in my Sisters wedding that day in 83, after the best man did his toast, and we all did our first dance, I slipped away..Im still pissed at my Sis for picking a Sunday to get married on..friggin goofball..

I think calls for Tebow will hurt Elway way more at this point. If somehow we can make Manning look like crap and it all blows up in Elway's face that would be so much sweeter.

 

70,000+ tebowing at M&T would be something to behold!

Same story every season, just different names. The schedule always looks intimidating at the beginning of every offseason. Studs will become duds, and duds will become studs. The bottom line is that we will be competitive in every game.

[papasmurfbell]

One season is not owning of late but the squealers are rebuilding. They will have at least one yr of down time I would think.

We've conquered the Stealers 3 out the last 4 reg season games..The tide has changed on the Black & Yellow.

[papasmurfbell]

2010 was a sweep. i can't remember before that. I think they might be headed for a sustained losing run with meddleing ownership. Rooney should have left it alone.

[oldno82]

Its a tough road and we won't have as much success next season as this past one but I still think it will be an exciting year with a playoff appearance. Look for a real good season from Joe if he gets and extension.

 

The biggest worry for me is our lack of a left guard. What are we going to do about that?

 

By the way, Max, I like how you're going to dress this weekend!

[thundercleetz]

Lets not lie to ourselves... As long as the Steelers have Roethlisberger they will be very tough to beat.

[papasmurfbell]

Unless they misuse their parts. Right now they are built for an air it out offense. Rooney wants a 3 yds and a cloud of dust offense and had their OC fired.

"His body's falling apart...probably held together by 1 tendon now....he's fat because his wife won't let him chase college girls...I'd say he's got the body of a 56 year old man now."
