Steelers Playoff Game!

Marc R.

People need to start listening to me! First of all, anyone who thinks or says The Chargers are hot and Darren Sproles is the best back in the league needs to realize they Colts play was the equivelent of a Pop Warner team on Saturday night.

Troy P. and the Steel Curtain is the best defense in the NFL for a reason! If you let the the seconday do their thing and linebackers blitz every down, the win will be secured by the start of the 2nd quarter.

As for the offense, Big Ben's head is still a little woozy. Save him for the AFC Championship! I am going to go out on a limb and say that Ben can be #2 on the depth chart for his game and put the ball in the hands of Leftwich for the game. All the weapons are in place. With Moore, Parker and Russell in the backfield and Miller, Ward and Washington able to catch; Byron can easily manage the game. Let him hand it off 80% of the plays and even a backup can complete a 5-yard out pattern on third down.

That's not to say Ben cannot come in. If Byron can't get the job done by the early part of the 2nd quarter, make the change. We have seen flashes of brilliance, so why not give him a chance.

I don't think it really matters who is behind center as long as Arians is the offensive coordinator. If the Administration thinks Bruce Arians is the answer after the season ends, then maybe Rod Marinelli should have been retained as head coach of the 0-16 Lions!
