1st: Wow what a game - I love tough, physical and efficient Defense

2nd: Mendy out rushed Chris Johnson ( 69 yds to 34 yds) (3.0 avg to 2.1 avg )

3rd: Mendy did this with a tattered line and our 3rd / 4th string QB

4th: James Harrison is still a freakin MONSTER

5th: Tomlin's staff outcoached Fisher's

6th: Our Defensive turnovers were outstanding and sorely missed last year . . .very nice to see



Lastly . . .






7th:We're 2-0 without Ben! :yay3:

The Steelers D staked their claim to being the best in the league. No one is better than them. NO ONE.

Not the Jets, not the Ravens. The STEELERS.

thoughts?

I can't wait to have ben back

Not only because the offense sucks without him, but this defense is possesed, and teamed up with him it's gonna be not pretty at all for the rest of the NFL

So much to say, Defense wins championships and this is identical if not BETTER than the 08 defense so far and with Ben and a productive offense, we will be soaring high!
Troy makes this defense click, and is just a pure animal on the field, Wood and Harrison are back as the animals on the edges as well!

Only one way to sum it up . . .

We were down and out on the O side of the ball losing Dixon but our D stepped up BIG TIME and didn't give them jack shit! :applaudit: No doubt - Steelers D is the BEST in the league hands down.

Jeff Reed once again proves why he MUST remain a Pittsburgh Steeler. :drink:

DSep put on yet another excellent performance. :clap2:

Coaches T and BA proved why they are NFL coaches and we are just mere fans. :chuckle: Thank God they didn't allow Botch to throw more than few times.

Hope you don't mind that I changed the title VT - we decided before last week's game that we were going to put all post-game discussion into one thread. :drink:

The KO return for a TD was HUGE. Let's not forget about that.

Lights out defense! Simply amazing; there are no words. I am dumbfounded by how well they played today. I just wish we were able to get more than 19 points off 7 turnovers. But a win is a win, and I honestly didn't expect to win today. That is, until the first play of the game, when I suddenly decided we had a chance.

I swear to God they only threw 4 passes the entire second half. Talk about having zero confidence in your OL and QB...

Who needs a QB?.......not this team lol. This D is scary good and when we do actually get our QB back I feel sorry for the rest of the league.

Add in Timmons to this mix and this defense is SCARY (to the opposing teams)

Oh yeah, and just to put into perspective of how great our defense is, the Falcons scored 41 points today. Albeit against the Cardinals, but they have a high flying offense, and they could only score 3 field goals on us!

12 points off of 7 turnovers you mean. Brown scored our only TD on a kick return

My thoughts, start of the game, I ran up and down the Bar as if I was on the sideline, wow we can actually get the ball past the 20 on kick and punt returns. Even with a banged up O line in hot weather and the 3rd and 4th string QBs, WE HAVE A RUNNING GAME. Of course it wasnt gonna be dominant against this defense, but it was great the line was actually pushing and shoving and grinding out the defense, with constant shuffling of the line. Anyone find out how Essex is doing?

This Defense is 08 if not better, they played so dominantly, CRUSHING Chris Johnson, his arrogant dancing ass wasnt dancing much today his bell got rung more than one time I loved it.

Also our defense has to get their minds set again to defend against the 2 minute drill, that last TD by collins was alarming, yeah it was hot and the defense was tired,but we should look into that.

Besides all of that, a GREAT win, i really didnt expect to win this game, and now we have 2 wins against 2 good teams and we are not at full force yet. I cant wait.

Not crazy with how we essentially let them right back in the game at the end, but just happy to be 2-0 with basically zero offensive production so far.

Yeah but that's Steeler football. As for me never in doubt after all we have Super Troy who is able to leap large lineman in a single bound!!!

Well sure we are. They'll be saying we got "lucky" against the Falcons, and the Titans blew out a shitty team and lost to another one: aka US. :)

Still under the radar...

It was great to see our defense playing very physical today and with a chip on their shoulder. They played with passion and showed the Titans the real definition of smash-mouth football. Offensively, we did struggle again and did even worse than last week IMO. They were given the ball seven times and only scored twelve points off of that. That's something they need to work on and another thing is the redzone scoring. Once again they aren't scoring touchdowns and only field goals, but our defense played excellent today and I praise them for that. I hope next week though our offense can explode and hopefully Dixon, Essex, Starks, and Hampton will be back then.

I think if we beat the Bucs, and then Beat the Ravens before our BYE, we will see the media slobbin on our knobs.

Dont know if this was said , but Pouncey played every snap in yesterdays game with all that heat . Even though there was a few bad snaps , great job by him .

Yesterday the defense played their best game since 2005. Hopefully they remind the Bucs next week of when the Steelers welcomed them to the NFL 45-0.

09-20-2010, 04:24 PM
Just check out the scores of week 1 and 2 to prove how amazing our defense is: We don't give up a TD to the falcons and hold them to 9 points, but they win 41 to 7 against the Cards, and the Titans spank the Raiders scoring 38 points and we beat their offense so bad they changed QB.
