You're not a cerebral QB...

...until you throw three INTs in one quarter. What a smart display of QBing by Peyton Manning!

Why can't Roethlisberger ever throw three INTs in one quarter?

[winwithd]

What did Atlanta do that we did not? Is their secondary that much better? Was it the pass rush? Was it disguising the defense? I did not see the first half. Thanks.

They made Manning throw long, which he can't do too well anymore. All three INTs were intermediate- to long-range passes, and very bad decisions by Manning. Steeler fans would be screaming to bench Roethlisberger if he threw even two of them.

Two safeties getting deep and breaking on the ball, man on the outside with either press coverage or small cushions, the remaining 7 mlling at the LOS with unpredictability as to rushers and great drops by the others. Aggressive D play overall, not waiting for something to happen to them. Getting some good pressure. Manning has thrown deep into coverage and the safeties have made excellent breaks on the ball for the intercepts. Good tackling too, going after the ball. ATL has a real good D.

no, that's not true. we wouldn't blame Ben...

that's what offensive coordinators are for.

Impossible. He knows the Atlanta defense too well. He studies them day and night

Stop exaggerating just because some realize that Ben is no perfect.
Who EVER screams to bench Ben?
EVERY SINGLE STEELER QB I HAVE EVER SEEN going back thirty years, got more calls to be benched than Ben.

Bradshaw got more boos and calls to be benched in a single game than Ben has gotten in his career.

Huh. I always blamed the blatant holding that was not called on J'ville's next to last play which set up the FG...
