****Official MNF Thread: Steelers @ Skins****

[Buck]

Lets see if the other Red/Gold Native American Themed team can do something tonight...

Oh yeah, and the McCain/Obama Interviews at halftime.

Discuss.

[Deberg_1990]

Redskins have been sneaky good this year.

[JBucc]

AFC sucks ass this year.

[Coach]

So.... still not sold on Campbell?

[Dylan]

Ben looks terrible this season... Ben's offensive line stinks.

[Buck]

The Skins are my #2 team, that will happen when your Parents teach you how to sing Hail to the Redskins before they teach you Twinkle Twinkle Little Star...

This game has been a defensive struggle, but I hope the Skins pull it out.

[Dylan]

Ben 3/13

Sacked 3 times

Rushed every play

3 & 2 and their coach calls for a passing play... Unbel.

[Buck]

Wow Carlos Rogers just dropped 6.

[JuicesFlowing]

The Skins are my #2 team, that will happen when your Parents teach you how to sing Hail to the Redskins before they teach you Twinkle Twinkle Little Star...

The Skins are my #2 team also. I actually liked the Skins before I liked the Chiefs, but it's a long story.

Steelers defense is keeping them in the game.

Washington's offensive line is weak. Campbell looks scared j/m/o Wish Zorn would call more screens -- at least it will take the pass rush off him

Let's Go Steelers.

[chiefbowe82]

herm dreams of an offense like pittsburgh

The worst thing is that no matter how good the Skins do this season, if the Giants keep on keepin' on, the Skins will get the #5 seed at best.

[Buck]

What the mufuk was that?

[Dylan]

LOL.. that's a start (Steelers)

[Buck]

I literally said right before that punt, that there has been so many punts in this game that one is bound to go wrong sooner or later.

[Dylan]

Run the freakin ball... Ben ain't cutting it

[Dylan]

Ben holds on to the ball so long

[Dylan]

Too bad the Steelers couldn't get a TD

[Buck]

Too bad the Steelers couldn't get a TD

For you, maybe.

[Dylan]

washington has some good blitz packages

[Dylan]

For you, maybe.

lol

[Buck]

C'mon Skins, stuff the Run...Hold em to a FG

[Dylan]

I thought ward had a td

[Dylan]

give the ball to moore

[Buck]

TD Big Ben

[JuicesFlowing]

The stats for both teams are nearly identical so far

[Dylan]

yeah, that was a smart play ... TD Steelers

[Buck]

Here comes the Presidential Interviews

[Skip Towne]

Ben is cutting it. Don't listen to Dylan.

[Dylan]

TD Big Ben

the chiefs playing the steelers this year?

I like the Steelers defense -- they play a good 3-4 and 4-3 defense... so does the ravens... i think they're the only teams that play both -- not sure

[Buck]

Obama said that NCAAF needs an 8 team playoff

[Buck]

Im not sure, I'm a Chargers Fan.

[banyon]

Obama said that NCAAF needs an 8 team playoff

:clap:

Absolutely!

I'd prefer 16, but this BCS sh*t needs to go.

[Dylan]

Ben is cutting it. Don't listen to Dylan.

lol.

Big Ben was 1-13 until the TD lol

[Dylan]

Im not sure, I'm a Chargers Fan.

that's right. you are a Chargers fan. Does your team play the Steelers?

[Buck]

:clap:

Absolutely!

I'd prefer 16, but this BCS sh*t needs to go.

I think 12 could work, where the top 4 get a bye, which would be the winner of the SEC, Big 12, Pac 10, Big 10, Big East, or ACC included...

Then the next 8 would have the other 2 who weren't in the top 4, and at least 2 Non-BCS Schools, and 4 At-Large Teams (BCS or Not)

[Buck]

that's right. you are a Chargers fan. Does your team play the Steelers?

Yes, in 2 weeks...In Pittsburgh...

This week we have the Squaws...

[Skip Towne]

lol.

Big Ben was 1-13 until the TD lol

I put in a satellite system for Ben's grandmother.

[Dylan]

I put in a satellite system for Ben's grandmother.

really? How nice. Where did Ben grow up?

[Dylan]

Yes, in 2 weeks...In Pittsburgh...

This week we have the Squaws...

The Chiefs? lol

ready for the Steelers defense?

[Buck]

The Chiefs? lol

Yuppers.

[Dylan]

Skip: what city do you live in?

[Skip Towne]

really? How nice. Where did Ben grow up?

Ben grew up in Ohio. His mother grew up in Columbus, Kansas.

[Buck]

Fuckin Leftwich

[kcxiv]

haha, Nice play by Byron.

[Gravedigger]

Good god Leftwich can still throw it.

[Dylan]

Wow... Keep Leftwich in

[Buck]

Wow... Keep Leftwich in

Dude, you are like a minute and a half behind, hit Live on your DVR, lol.

[Dylan]

Come on Leftwich don't throw a pick 6

[kcxiv]

Wow, Lefty looks good.

[Buck]

Fuckin Skins, thats 2 first downs on the 1 so far.

[Dylan]

Dude, you are like a minute and a half behind, hit Live on your DVR, lol.

:D


but.. but... I'm watching the game -

[Buck]

Okay, Campbell, prove you are a good QB...You need to keep pace with the Giants and win this game.

[Dylan]

tynes playing for the steelers?

[JuicesFlowing]

My fantasy team is down by 6, and I have Portis and Moss. I just need a TD by one of them.

[Buck]

My fantasy team is down by 6, and I have Portis and Moss. I just need a TD by one of them.

You should be good....If one of them can get 30 yards and the other 40, that should win it for you too.

[Dylan]

not looking good for the redskins.

[Buck]

Campbell ran right into that sack.

[Dylan]

looks like the steelers will be in first place for sacks after this game

[Dylan]

hell, redskins defense is stepping it up

[Dylan]

My fantasy team is down by 6, and I have Portis and Moss. I just need a TD by one of them.

that looks like the only way they're going to score

[Mecca]

I wonder if anyone really believes that election storyline they keep running.

[Dylan]

I hope campbell is not hurt... he's shell shocked

[Dylan]

I wonder if anyone really believes that election storyline they keep running.

i missed it

[Buck]

First pick of the year for Campbell, maybe The Skins will challenge the call though.

[Dylan]

campbell is getting killed tonight... washington does not have a good offensive line

[Mecca]

Jason Campbell has improved from what I thought he was but he seems to be reverting back in this game.

[Mr. Laz]

that's an interception

the steeler was adjusting the ball not fumbling it imo

[XXXshogunXXX]

dood..are they fuckin retarded. Why are they even debating if he had posession.

[Mecca]

Man Leftwich when he has time has got a fuckin cannon.

[milkman]

Man Leftwich when he has time has got a ****in cannon.

The problem, he needs to wind up like a pitcher with men on base to bring out that cannon.

[Dylan]

good. I'm glad Campbell had an INT. now Jaws can stop calling him MVP QB

[Dylan]

Leftwich looks better than Ben this season

[Mecca]

The problem, he needs to wind up like a pitcher with men on base to bring out that cannon.

Yea, he's a guy that if your line was really good he'd be superb, like if he played here in the scenario Trent Green had he'd have looked like he was an all world player hitting guys 40 yards down field.

[Dylan]

Jerry Jones must be weeping

great play

[banyon]

I think 12 could work, where the top 4 get a bye, which would be the winner of the SEC, Big 12, Pac 10, Big 10, Big East, or ACC included...

Then the next 8 would have the other 2 who weren't in the top 4, and at least 2 Non-BCS Schools, and 4 At-Large Teams (BCS or Not)

12 is better, but why do we need a bye? Your selections are good.

i see this as a gradual process toward the good solution.

[Coach]

12 is better, but why do we need a bye? Your selections are good.

i see this as a gradual process toward the good solution.

Seeds 1-4 are on the bye, with the 1 getting the lowest seed, and the 4 getting the highest seed.

5 plays aganist 12
6 plays aganist 11
7 plays aganist 10
8 plays aganist 9

[Dylan]

moore is good WR. he's had a few big catches tonight

[Ultra Peanut]

Did someone say Dennis Dixon?

Because DENNIS DIXON POSSESSES A STRANGE AND INTRIGUING POWER

HE IS LIKE UNTO MAGIC

[Dylan]

they should make Leftwich the starter

[Coach]

Zorn should make Leftwich the starter

U mean Tomlin?

[Dylan]

yeah, thanks

[Coach]

yeah, thanks

Don't mention it, cupcake. :D

[Mecca]

I can't believe they just called roughing the passer....look at them trying to help out the Skins.

[milkman]

I can't believe they just called roughing the passer....look at them trying to help out the Skins.

Helmut to Helmut is always going to get called.

[Ultra Peanut]

I can't believe they just called roughing the passer....look at them trying to help out the Skins.That is a metaphor for election fraud. But the margin is too wide for it to matter.

Whoa.

[Coach]

I can't believe they just called roughing the passer....look at them trying to help out the Skins.

Helmet to Helmet is always going to be called. It is what it is.

[banyon]

He is Testaverde short.

[Basileus777]

That wasn't even close to being a TD. It was obvious in realtime....

[Dylan]

Let's go Steelers... lol

[Dylan]

James Farrior (sp) another good player the Jets got rid of

[Dylan]

Strength against strength lol

[chiefs1111]

why were the Skins trying to throw a 4th down and goal pass to a linemen??? dumb

[Dylan]

Don't mention it, cupcake. :D
:D thanks, pumpkin

[Dylan]

Steelers are a tough team. I/M/O they're a tougher and more complete team than the Titans. Titans don't have any legit WRs. They won't go far with just a running game

Ben is holding the team back so far

[FAX]

The Steelers have one hell of a defense.

It's fascinating to watch what a dominating defense can do.

FAX

[Dylan]

Where did the Steelers find Tomlin?

[Coach]

Where did the Steelers find Tomlin?

Promoted to HC after a DC stint in Minny.

[Coach]

Hyopthetically speaking, would the Dolphins season in 07 been better under Tomlin (Since he DID interviewed for the Dolphins HC job) instead of Cameron?

[Dylan]

The Steelers have one hell of a defense.

It's fascinating to watch what a dominating defense can do.

FAX

I think the Steelers and Ravens have the best defenses in the AFC. They play smashmouth football. And they both switch from 3-4 to a 4-3. That's impressive (to me).

I really like the Steelers. I watch the NFC East teams closely. Zorn has Washington playing great. But i/m/o Skins weakness is their offensive line right now -- I'm sure they'll get it together. And I really like Campbell.

[Mecca]

Promoted to HC after a DC stint in Minny.

Are you sure he was ever DC, he was a DB coach for awhile I know..

[Dylan]

Congratulations Steelers ------------ for beating the Redskins. :clap:

about time

[Coach]

Are you sure he was ever DC, he was a DB coach for awhile I know..

He was a DB coach in Tampa, under Monty Kiffin from 01 to 05. Childress picked Tomlin as his DC in 06, when Minny had the 8th best overall defense, the best rush defense, but 32nd against the pass.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Tomlin

[Dylan]

Promoted to HC after a DC stint in Minny.

wow. He's an excellent coach...

[Ultra Peanut]

Did you know: Mike Tomlin was a defensive backs coach at the University of Memphis! When he was hired, he tapped Memphis offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner to be WRs coach.

[Dylan]

I never understood why Monty Kiffin did not get a head coaching job in the NFL. He's a legendary defensive coordinator. strange

I remember reading that he renewed his contract with TB this year.

[Coach]

Well, you are a legendary DC, and you are settled in a very warm beaches in Tampa. Why risk it?

Plus he's about 68, since he was born in 1940, so eventually, after this new contract expires, I think he's going to hang it up.

[Dylan]

Yeah, you're right. I'm sure we'll lose Steve Spagnuolo. He really overhauled the Giants defense in the mold of the Eagles.

Jim Johnson defensive coord. for the Eagles is another legendary defensive coordinator.
