Cardinals linebacker Joey Porter silent — so far

Re: Cardinals linebacker Joey Porter silent — so far

Porter AND Haggans pretty quiet, actually.

I actually thought the annouce crew spoke a bit higher on Haggins and his career as a Steeler than they did Peezy. I liked Clark while he was here but the more they talked about him the more I thought, "Are we thinking of the same guy?"

I have nothing against Haggans...

But, he's not Woodley...

In 8 years with the Steelers, Haggans racked up 32.5 sacks...

Woodley had more sacks in just his first three years as a starter...

yea looks like joey's best days are behind him. He was still a great player and will never be forgotten on our super bowl run


who ride we ride

The Indy game especially. Love Porter for that game alone (never mind the fact that he had a long and productive career in the B&G).

Check-down Ben was back today for the Steelers and, amazingly, the Steelers had another big offensive day.

Imagine that.

I thought Roethlisberger played outstanding football against the Cardinals, pretty much doing whatever he wanted.

He seemed to have the Cardinals guessing wrong all day – witness his fake in the backfield on former teammate Clark Haggans, getting Haggans to go airborne while Roethlisberger scrambled around him and made yet another short completion.

And the deep balls were still there.

That said, Roethlisberger still took some unnecessary hits in this game. He got sacked twice - including once by Haggans – and hit six times.

And that was in a game in which the Steelers led 14-0 and never trailed.

One player who did not get a QB hit was Joey Porter. He's finished.

Did Joey play yesterday ? I never heard his name or saw his jersey during the game.
Personally, I thought they got rid of Joey just in time or even a bit late. Other than the Colts playoff game I thought his better years were behind him a couple of years prior to that. Too many times I seen him get blocked by a runninback or even a receiver.

To me it was more the system for Porter. Joey was good but Harrison has it all over him and I doubt we would have ever learned that had Cowher remained.

Who was the other linebacker that looked and played as if he was in a body cast ? For as many sacks he got I thought he was the worse. He gained more sacks from no one blocking him or the QB running into him. I was thrilled when they let him go and Clark took his place.

Re: Cardinals linebacker Joey Porter silent — so far

Thanks, I don't know how I had forgotten his name but, he is a forgettable player.

I think it was when his first re-sign came up and the Steelers didn't make him an offer and no other team made him an offer but at the end, the Steelers made him an offer and resigned him. The thing is, they gave him way too much money for a guy no other team had any interest in.
It's been a long time but, that's how I remember it.
