The Steelers are headed for the playoffs; how far can they go?

slampton: I guess I made a mistake. But since, your talking about Peyton Manning, I guess the Steelers should be afraid. I remember it wasn't so easy for Mannings. The Steelers dropped two interceptions then Manning took credit for the win.

You can kiss Manning's butt, I'll tell the truth.

Ok. Well sorry for the "bomb".  I was just shocked you thought I meant Flacco.  Peyton has never taken credit for anything.  You're way off base there. 

slampton: I dissagree.On the first touchdown P Manning threw, Ike Taylor had the ball in both hands; on the second TD, Troy Palamulu drop an interception with a clear path to the endzone. In interviews after the game, Manning felt his offense and his play was getting better.

The Steelers offense, particularly the QB did not play well, and the Colts barely won.

I suspect the Steelers will play better. Do you think the Colts are a lock? If so, you must be kidding me. If you like Manning, love Manning-just say it. The Media is in business with the NFL, marketing is essential, and the league has to promote somebody, and most of the time its the QB.

Manning and Colts get all questionable calls, and the league went to far to help Manning.

Case in point: During the year the Colts won the Super Bowl, the Colts did not play a game outside of the RCA Dome or cold weather city in December. The league didn't want to see a Manning break down like we saw him do in against cheatin' New England in the snow.

Overall, the Colts were fortunate to get the win, they got it due to poor QB play. Be glad, but don't count on it should there be a next time.

 The Colts may beat the Steelers, if the Colts get that far, but it is not a given.  The Steeler defense has not given up much - even to the Colts in the loss this season.  If the offense makes no big turnovers and makes even a fair contribution, the Steelers can beat anybody.

 As far as the 100 million dollar man will take them. At the rate he's playing not very! The Steelers may reach the championship game simply because the D can handle the caliber of opponents they'll face. If Indy is the first game I don't think they can get by them ,though. This will represent the worst waste of a championship caliber defense since the Rex Grossman led Bears. What makes me sick is the money the Rooneys have paid him. History tells us that they will fetch every dollar worth of investment...win or lose vis a vis Kordele Stewart  The type of money they paid this over hyped QB is so atypical. They could have shortened the term and saved themselves a bundle. What were they thinking? Granted BIG BEN SHOWED SOME PROMISE HIS ROOKIE YEAR THAT IS UNTIL THE PLAYOFFS...but that was the days of smash mouth and Jerome. Who are the Steelers...really. I don't think this team has an identity outside of their D. Arians does not establish any rhythym ever! Any pundant is hard pressed to place a label on todays Steelers. Ben Roethlesberger runs around like a chicken with his head cut-off and his feet are.the happiest in the NFL! Truly, he is the only QB in recent memory that scrambled for his life IN THE PRO BOWL!! It was embarassing. So now commentators describe his role  as game manager that just knows how to win..well lately he demonstrated he knows how to lose too! This guy has had more turnovers in two games than Chad Pennington had in an entire year. If Tomlin wises up, I believe with Leftwich we can go to the Super Bowl! Let's hope his recent endorsements of Big Ben was for the press and if Ben falters he'll yank him early. SO...to answer with Leftwich at QB I believe the Steelers can go all the way. Behind Big Ben...not too deep...he will falter sooner than later. EVERY TEAM has the bluprint:  pressure him , take his right roll out away and dare him to beat you...MORE TIMES THAN NOT HE CAN'T!

OneChuck-I'll have to get back with you after the Chargers/Colts game.  I'm spending most of my time talking smack on the San Diego Tribune Charger Forum.  Can you believe they banned me?  What a bunch of *** fans!  I didn't even say anything offensive.  All they want to do is be a bunch of cheerleaders for the Chargers.  But I'm back as ChargerGal69!  LOL!!!

We will finally get our Turnpike Superbowl. Steelers Vs Eagles. Steelers 21 Eagles 17 

 The Steelers can go all the way. The one key that is most important -- score more points. The Steelers will win the game if the team scores more points than the other team that day.

Show up, first, of course.

Score more points, once they are playing the game.

Slampton/Chargergirl69:

What goes on in Cancun, stays in Cancun.

The look on Peyton Mannings face after the game was priceless.

Look left, pucker up, and just do it.

 Don't think we'll be seeing "18 and the blue horse shoe" this year!

buccjoe21: We will see #18....on Superbowl commercials.

Remember, if its shot on a Sony, why not watch a Sony?.

 So much for the "speed bump" Chargers huh? Eat your words...you make a bad name for the rest of your team's fans.  Name calling shows weakness, just like your Colts.  We won without LT for the better part of the game and without Merriman.  I will not discount the fact that Manning is a great quarterback, however, he had a 95 passer rating while Rivers had 105.5 this season.  Rivers also threw for 34 T.D.'s over Manning's 27 and with one less interception. MVP...great...but we're still in it.  Have a nice off-season....

 Why is it that everyone has to pull the "superbowl"' card after they lose.  I'll be the first one to admit...yes the Chargers have not won one yet.  But for pete's sake find another comeback.  Just admit the fact that your team is going home (two years in a row I might add at the hand of the Chargers) and that your team is no longer included in this forum because the Bolts are coming to Pitt to take care of business.    

 Ladies and Gentlemen and all Steeler fans,call it as you will,spend time talking about the Chargers all you want. Be advised as of this comment the Pittsburgh Steelers will play the Philadelpia Eagles in the Superbowl. Go ahead and laugh now,Steelers 21 Eagles 17  You go Steelers!!!!!!!!! 2009 YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yo mouth! like I said before It will be the Steelers and the Eagles. like it or not .you can run your silly chops all you want but it will be the Steelers and Eagles ok .you need to get a grip!!!
