Steel Men Are Coming

[OnTheWarpath15]

Business is ****ing booming, Steelers up 20-3 only 17 minutes into the game.

Ya'll wanted Pittsburgh. 219 yards of offense in the 1st quarter.

We'll be fine?

We'll find out next Sunday.

Yep. What has this game proven? That Leveon Bell and Antonio Brown are good? I didn't need this game to know that

****ing hell. Once you daffodil smelling, Caramel Mocha Macchiato sipping, pants wetting candy asses realize two very important things -

1) Pittsburgh doesn't lose at home, especially in the playoffs

and

B) Miami has played maybe their worst game of their season today

you will come to the conclusion that we are not automatically going to lose next week. Throw in the additional factoids that Benny Rape is not the same QB on the road as he is at home and how the Chiefs want a little payback of their own, our prospects look better and better.

I like our chances.*





*provided Andy keeps his foot on the pedal with both sides of the ball


EDIT - AND Miami is down to their second and third string QB's here. Sack up, powder puffs.

not much of a challenge.

PIT didn't impress me here today.

Can't have it both ways, fellas.

a back up turning the ball over is not the same thing.

[carcosa]

I think we will win!

[BigCatDaddy]

This be the defining game of Alex Smiths career.

We have GOT to attack this defense down field. Early and often. Their DBs suck balls and their LBs just sit underneath and tee off on receivers.

We can beat these guys downfield. We have to.

[Black Bob]

I am glad it's Pittsburgh. We need to beat the best. It's "kill or be killed" time. We beat them and we can go all the way.

Possibly.

I will say this, though - this is his 12th season in the league and there are no excuses anymore. He needs to go out there and remove all doubt of who he is and what he can do, even if it is only his sixth playoff start.

IMO, the Chiefs should be the first team to take a flag for a late hit. Hit them hard, late and often in the first 5 minutes. That way, if it's established by the refs that any late hits will be flagged, then you back off.

That's exactly what the Steelers did today and the Fins died a quick death after that hit to Moore.

Officials are more likely to call that stuff (or anything) with PIT on the road. They are the 2nd most penalized road team only to Oakland.

Absolutely, set the nasty and physical tone early

[Hammock Parties]

Steelers open as 2.5 pt favorites.

[Coochie liquor]

Steelers are very beatable. Moore is the reason Miami lost today more than Pitts D being elite. We've beaten good teams all year, this time they're in our house. Chiefs got this. Our weapons are better than Miami's. Our D is better than Miami's.

I said this in another thread.

If this offense has the same rhythm it has played with in the last 2 games, and Smith continues to get the ball into his playmaker's hands in good spots, as he has done in those 2 games, I like the Chiefs chances.
