We were supposed to get destroyed by? Wasn't this the offense that was supposed to kill us? We played the entire first half without a ******* offense, and still came away with the win. But but but, yards. But but but, all the points in the previous games.

**** BA and his yards up and down the field all day long and no points to show for it offense.

Oh, and I thought Landry Jones sucked? Looked like he did ok today. I'm not saying he's the second coming, but ****, he looked a shitload better than the dog killer. Maybe we need some jumper cables and a battery, since Mikey obviously didn't perform so well.

It was a good team win all around. Defense held their own for the first half. I honestly think if it wasn't for Vicks injury we may have lost this game. Jones has a better understanding of the playbook which should make him the QB over Vick until Ben returns. Vick was wearing down our Defense with quick offensive series

I don't know if it is Vick not knowing or understanding the offense, but he just can't make any throws. He is a Vet, but just a bad QB at this stage of his career.

I think age. Vick is done. I rooted for the guy to hold up the Steelers. But with him under center. Its a quick 3 and out
 
I never got the hate for Landry on here. Several reports have said when he works with the first team he looks like a totally different QB. I think that we saw that today. The most impressive play to me was when he read the blitz and hit miller for a first down. I do not see Vick making that play there. I still think AZ is a good team, but they could not score today. Our D sure did its part and the refs were horrible (but for both sides). I am still not sold on our DBs aside from Gay. We definitely need some help there. To hold down the Cards and Rivers (who threw for 500 yrds today) is still impressive.
If Vick would have stayed in I highly doubt we win. He not only cant read the D, he is late with throws and has no accuracy. If Ben thinks he is ready to go I would still considering starting Landry and maybe have Ben as backup and only play him if absolutely needed. I do not think KC is very good, but Smith can run a bit so that may give us some problems.
 
They beat bad teams, which is something that we could learn from, but they are not a good team. They are losing to teams they should be losing to, like the Steelers.

Vick has never been a smart QB who can easily understand offense. He was a tremendous athlete who can run better than any QB I've ever seen. As far as gameplan and understanding the QB position he's as dumb as a box of rocks! Always has been, always will be! He SUCKS!

Apparently The Bruce's offense is good at putting up points against bad defenses but when they play a good defense like Indy or us (did I just say we have a good defense?), then not so much.

In other offensive news, I see that today Philip Rivers became the first QB in history to throw for over 500 yards with no interceptions and lose.

And, flip that coin, the Steelers are beating teams they should, like the cardinals or chargers. Just a half full.........statement!!!
