Steelers lose to Ravens in OT, but now in “Attack Mode!”

Last night made me feel a little like a proud mama.  I remember watching tape of Dixon from college and seeing him scramble and run outside the pocket, but in reality, I am not sure what I expected last night.  Maybe it wasn’t a win, but there were a lot of good things about that [...]

Steelers Beat the Browns…Again

In a week filled with upsets, it felt a little better to be a Steelers fan, even if they played the Browns.  In fact, it was Pittsburgh’s 12th straight win against the Browns.  What was once a fierce rivalry is little more than a Sunday get together these days.  Despite the offense starting a little [...]

The Positive: Welcome Back Running Game??

In a weekend of upsets, including the Patriots losing to the Jets and Cincy Beating Green Bay, I will congratulate the Bears on a tough game well played.  The Bears were able to do what the Steelers were not – kick field goals in clutch moments.  However, it wasn’t just the field goals that led [...]

NFL 2009 Season Opener – Style Points 0; Win 1

The 2009 NFL season is officially underway.  In front of a record home crowd of 65, 110 all dressed in black and gold, the Steelers narrowly defeated the Titans 13-10 in the opening game of the season.
THAT was ugly  ladies and gentleman.  But I will take the check in the win column and keep on [...]

2009 NFL Kickoff – I’m ready, are you?

The day is almost here.
You know what day….September 10, 2009 – otherwise known as NFL Kickoff Day!
That day we have been anxiously awaiting since February.  Sure, there have been glimmers of fun since Super Bowl Sunday…tweeting the draft and meeting @NFLPRGuy (aka Brian McCarthy) as the NFL finally caught up with the rest of us [...]

The Steelers visit the White House

 

 
(prefacing this post with the fact that I am pissy and had a bad day!)
Wow, what a day, the Steelers visit the White House.  I work a block from the White House and was excited to know that they would be coming to my city today.  Last night, in preparation, I packed my #10 jersey [...]

The House of Cards Comes Tumbling Down

So the Cards have a highly rated secondary? So what?
In one of the most talked about match-ups, you have Arizona’s Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (DRC for this post’s purpose) against the Steelers Santonio Holmes.  Sure, I think DRC is fast, he’s got talent and physical strength.  He’ll be able to give Santonio a workout on Sunday, no [...]

Winning the AFC Championship – 10 yards at a time

Let me open about the AFC Championship game by saying that I do hope Willis McGahee is ok, my prayers go out to him and his family.  That was a tough hit, but not unexpected in a game between the Ravens and Steelers.
So, how do you win BIG games?  Ten yards at a time.  You [...]

Rocking the House at Heinz Field!

I’m not sure what to say today.  Really.
Who was that team?  Where did that offense come from?  Suddenly there are my Steelers!  I hope I have to take back all the trash I have been talking about the O-line all season.  Sure, I am not the only one who has been all over them, but [...]
