The season starts Sunday at 1 EDT. And the Steelers' march to the Super Bowl begins.

Well, the 49ers just lost again. Why do I bother?

You ran into the Juggernaut known as Air McNair. The man is quite simply the best quarterback I’ve seen since Montana, but injuries and a mediocre receiving corps has kept him out of the spotlight.

I was considering going to sports bars to watch the Steelers, but I see that they’re no playoff team this year. They’re another dog team like the Bengals. So, I’ll just stay home and watch the Panthers D crush more offenses. FALCONS FALL!

Aren’t you coming that conclusion a little early? There’s three months of football to play. The Steelers overcame last year’s disastrous start to win the division and… lose to the Titans. There’s some kind of team mental block going on here.

Well, it’s the Brownies next week and Denver following; then a week off. They should be able to work two wins out of that- at least keep their perfect record in the AFC North.

Indy is going nuts on the Saints right now. A new record- 6TDs for Peyton. And I have Dallas Clark on one of my teams!

I’ll take my crow cold thank you.

I think we can still say, “its a long season” and live with the loss. Its not time yet to say, “wait for next year” like a certain teams fan is doing.

Good news from yesterday. Browns lose to Bengals. Ravens lose. And I had Manning in both my fantasy football leagues.

When you figure it out, please let me know. I was just happy that FOX switched to another game, I was almost ready to start sharpening my razor blade.

Gotta make my prediction early.
Chiefs and Broncos go at it this weekend. Two unbeaten teams. One will fall, one will go 5-0.

I’m saying the mighty Chiefs will prevail over the lucky-till-now Bronk-Hosers 33-21.

That was easy. I think I’ll go out on a limb and say Dante Hall will return a punt or kickoff for another touchdown. If so, that will make him the ONLY NFL player to return a kick for a touchdown IN FOUR CONSECUTIVE PRO GAMES.

Steelers will continue to disappoint everybody.

Is that Smak enough for ya?

Tail is most obviously wagging.

Eh, fuck you buster brown. The Broncos are going to show the Chefs how it’s done.

[sub]I don’t even know if I believe my own smack, but damnit, I couldn’t let it go unanswered[/sub]

GO BRONCOS!!! WOO!

And now, for this week’s prediction.

As usual, I’m predicting a Steelers win, because hope springs eternal. And there’s plenty of hope this week when the Brownies come to Heinz Field. The Browns just plain suck. There’s no other way to say it. They managed to pull out a win against the 49ers, but all that proved was that the Niners are mere shadows of what they were during their glory years. The ultimate proof of that came the next week when the Brownies played the bottom-feeding Bengals and lost.

So, here’s what I see this week. I see Joey Porter, Jason Gildon, and the defense turning Tim Couch into a babbling, nonresponsive blob of jelly with a few high impact hits. I see Tommy Maddoxpicking apart their inferior defense. And I see a breakthrough game for Amos and the Bus.

Pittsburgh 35, Cleveland 10.

BubbaDog, that’s how it’s done. Now we get to see if Dante Hall can do it again, or if Denver just sits back and waits for him to try to run it back and blasts him into the cheap seats. I think Denver wins this game in a close one 21-20.

Well, it definitely has been a close game to this point, BubbaDog. But, more importantly, I simply have to know:

What the hell has Dante Hall been taking? He just ran ANOTHER one back. It’s like nobody knows how to play special teams anymore.

I think he’s due for a drug test here, fellas.

Next post, I’ll be celebrating a Steelers victory. See you then.

I really thought that I was over the top with my Dante Hall statement.
We are more than happy to send the Hosers back to Denver with their first loss. I expect that we will be slugging it out again for the division title.
At this point though I just gotta say to pepperlandgirl-nana nana nana–doodoo- We beat you-hoo!:stuck_out_tongue:

And Airman Doors, don’t need to worry about Dante and drugs - he’s fueled by some of that fine KC Bar-b-que.

Bubbadog
You know its a waggin

And…it looks like we still hafta wait to see the answer to that question. :smiley:

Bubba

Oh me, oh my, the mighty Baltimore Ravens are alone atop the AFC North.
:smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Barely, bubba, barely. Next time, in Denver, the Chefs will weep bitter tears as their hopes and dreams are crushed into oblivion.

So, you won’t be posting until, what, the 26th? Next week y’all are in Denver for another likely loss, and then you have the bye week. St Louis on the 26th looks like the next game it would be possible to win.

Would those be the same Ravens that got their lunch eaten by the mediocre Steelers?

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have some kittens to kick and some windows to smash. 33-13, my ass.

Yup. Those exact same ones. The one y’all beat when they started a QB who had never taken a snap in the NFL. The defense that y’all shredded while they had their worst game in years. The same team whom y’all took to pieces in week one. Oh, yea, that would be the same team, you know, the one who’s ass is in your face in the standings?

That very same team.

You know, the one in first place.

:cool: :cool: :cool:

Where’s the weak 4 predictions thread anyway? I have to come to a lowly steelers thread to gloat…
