You didn't think the Steelers had a shot with Palmer in?

Nope. You saw Kitna, once the second half rolled around the Steelers had completely adapted to the scheme. Kitna was forced to make awkward throws and they couldn't run the ball, then Kitna got noticably rattled.

I think with Palmer in, stronger arm, more familiar with the offense, Bengals win. Hell, even the play he got injured on was completed.

I guess you're right but I was kinda torn then once he got hurt I didn't think they had much of a chance.

Dam I missed the Steelers game, I thought it was on 8pm. I seen the Giants getting there ass kicked today. That game was qick shit. :D Taking nothing away from Denver but it still might be again Colts & Patriots for AFC, If they make it. Which I think the pats will there #1 on rusg defense I think. The pass still has problems, but they did to well angiest the jags WR's. they where bigger and taller than the pats cb's. The steelers where lucky that the Cinni- was sleep later on. They better not do that when they face the colts. The patriots has to strike qick and not drop or miss passes plus dillion has to start getting some yards in. The Patriots & Broncos are on Sat (I think)

Random entry....


Just saw that the Titans have the 3rd pick in the draft so now I'm convinced.....Bush,Leinart,Young.


-Even if the Texans trade out to the Jets Bush will go first. Curtis Martin injured his leg and had season ending surgery not to mention he's not getting any younger.

-The Saints have cut ties to inconsistent Aaron Brooks and what's more consistent than leading a 34 game winning streak on one of the best offenses in the history of college football.

-McNair has finally reached the point where he just can't finish a season but will probably return for another and who better for him to mentor into his place than...well...him. A year on the bench behind a veteran QB with playoff expierence and an MVP under his belt could only help Young's unlimited potential.


To finish off the top 5...

-Jets lost Kareem McKenzie to free agency and their passing game went to hell so they'll go with D‘Brickashaw Ferguson who'll take care of the left side for the next decade.

-Tamba Hali or Mario Williams could go at 5 to the Packers, their young secondary suffered this year mainly do to lack of a decent pass rush. Imo opinion it's a toss up between the two.

Hope you're right except for the Colts, I don't have a problem with 'em but the Broncos can't beat 'em. On the other hand if they get the Steelers at home they'll probably win the Super Bowl.
