James Farrior is the mortar of a usually brick-solid Steelers defense.

As the 36-year-old linebacker paced the sideline with his helmet dangling at his side Sunday, the defending AFC champions' defense looked like a soft mix of sand and water. It was vulnerable against a revenge-minded, physical Baltimore offense.

Farrior walked slowly onto the field at M&T Bank Stadium during a timeout to offer advice and encouragement to backup linebacker Larry Foote as the Ravens marched methodically downfield during a flawless, 12-play, 84-yard scoring drive.

It was an unusual situation for Farrior, who watched from the sideline during Baltimore's last three first-half possessions. He wasn't hurt, and he didn't ask for a breather...............

Hopefully the "old guys" will be able to rest the 4th quarter because we will be home and cooled out by the end of the 3rd. But somehow, I don't think so.

One of the lowest points in a miserably low day was watching Killah ray pick-off a tipped pass. He wasn't even in the play, and it just flipped right to him. I get tired of seeing Ray jumping on piles 3 seconds after the play is over and getting credit for a 1/2 a tackle, and that absolute gift of an INT made me want to puke.

That's how the day went for the Steelers.... Hope they learn from it move on and play with some fire the rest of the way!!!:tt02:

Just as sickening as Ed Reed picking off a Roethlisberger duck. Couldn't have made it any easier for him.

Credit where credit is due, he did strip Memo on the last fumble. 20 yards down the field, Ray did not give up.

It definitely was a sad, sad sight watching him on the sideline. I can imagine the hurt he was feeling.
