Hundley looked like crap today.
I agree.
This situation supports my thoughts that you can have great talent at WR, such as Nelson, Cobb, Adams......but without a QB that can get them the football, they are not productive and seem to be not as good from a statistical point of view.
So, Aaron Rogers makes these WR's look great, just as other great QB's make their WR's look great. At this point Hunley looks far from even average, so stop the run game, make the game come down to a Packers passing game and cover the spread.
We're going to give 'em a good ass whoopin' in prime time!
Packers' fans aren't hopeful...

Here's other Packers' boards (geesh, there's a ton of them), although they don't appear to have threads up yet as of this writing...

Can see another 40 point game for this team.
The Steelers supposedly lose to “inferior teams”. (Thanks for nothing, Mark Kaloby.) Well, the Steelers have not exactly faced a murderer’s row in the past 17 regular season games...
...and yet, the Steelers are still 15-2 in those games. Weird.
SUMMATION:
So, either Mark Kaloby was wrong (used misleading stats), or... well... I guess he was wrong.
Substitute Mike Tomlin for Mike McCarthy and Jones for Hundley in this observation by Peter King about Hundley and it certainly sounds like a familiar complaint by some Steelers fans
I’ve said this before, but this could be a good learning experience for Mike McCarthy. His backup quarterback, on a team when a backup has been needed fairly often, is a very important player, and the backup should be getting some playing time in the fourth quarter of games that have been decided—and maybe in the first three quarters of some other games. Hundley just does not look ready to succeed against pressure.

Agreed - just passing along that the Steelers are not the only team criticized for how it handles playing the backup
In the salary cap era teams usually are screwed if the franchise QB is injured and that can happen just as easily in the first quarter as the fourth quarter
Of course I'd love to see us score another 40+ game and win, and it looks to be doable, but like they say, " any given Sunday". I sure hope Tomlin and coaches have the team 'up' and ready to play like last week....for the whole 60 minutes !
I just hope that we play like we should in this game. The Packers are coming off of being shut out at home by the lowly Ravens and we just dismantled the Titans. This better not be another game like Indy.

Steelers 37
Pack 7
26-3 steelers.
35-10 Hundley is horrible at home. Wait till he hits the road against this hungry D.
No chance of a Rodgers return?
I think it's going to be on Sunday that the players who are in the hall of honor will be honored ....
Is Terry Bradshaw will be in Pittsburgh on Sunday?
