Im pretty sure if the league imposes a penalty that the team can't. I think the steeler's hands were tied unless they wanted to just bail on a legitimate franchise qb in his prime.

Heading to the OBX this weekend. Is Barefoot Bernies a good enough Steeler bar or do I have to go down to Lucky 12?

We're staying in Southern Shores, was hoping to avoid the drive. I wonder if it's on TV.

hah, it is. Suck it Baltimore. I'll probably just walk to Coastal Provisions and get something tasty to bring back.

I won't post the responses. Some are not board friendly. Most are quite predictable considering what happened yesterday.

When was the last QB arrested for something? Ryan Leaf.

All I can conclude from all this is that RBs are awful people.
Wide receivers seem to be a close second.

Remember the Pouncey birthday party incident earlier this summer? It was announced today that both Pouncey brothers will not be charged.

True, but a victory over an impressive Colts team that is first in scoring and passing offense (gulp) would suck back in all but the most jaded of fans.

How will you feel when Luck sets the record for most completed passes in a game against the Steelers?

The line in this game has been bet the whole way from PK to -3 Indy. That's promising.

If I had to guess an early score prediction, Indianapolis 34, Steelers 20. I predicted a four point Steelers victory last week, and just missed the exact numbers, but it ain't happening.

Pretty much my thoughts. The only way I see them in this game is if the offense can stay out of their own way and put up a lot of points. Either that or someone Kimo Von Ollhoffen's Andrew Luck. (not that I am advocating that).

Just don't see dem Stillers being in this one.

I think it's a winnable game. The Steelers offense can be competent, and the Colts aren't a strong defensive team. The Steelers are capable of winning a shootout.
