    i guess these players do not watch other games, (buffalo/new england wk 1)....
    I'm not familiar with what happened in that game or maybe I am and I simply don't remember.

    well it was inside of 2 minutes to go in the game and the bills were up 4, the returner for buffalo had a nice return but refused to go down even with 2 patriots on top of him, he kept fighting for an extra half yard at most, well anyway, the ball was stripped and new england recovered and went on to win the game....

      logan's return wasnt half as stupid as mckelvin's. it should of been blown dead for forward progress but logan should of had the ball secured better, two hands on the ball in the situation he was in and he didnt have to fight for an extra yard. to be honest besides a couple good returns logan has been a little dissapointing. if we wanted a return man that is prone to fumble we could of kept willie reid for that

        i think alot of fans were expecting logan to be the next donte hall, or devin hester, logan is fast and quick but there was too much expected out of him right off the bat, i think he will be an upgrade but we need to lower our standards in terms of what we expect out of him....

          Re: logan return

          i think Logan did cover the ball with 2 hands. The chargers just did a great job stripping him of the ball. They wouldn't let him go down and when he finally did we were unlucky because he landed on a player instead of hitting the ground. I still like what Logan can bring to the table as a punt returner and he has proven to be a bonus with his special teams coverage. The man hits pretty hard for a little guy.
          As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

          but Go Steelers!!!

            Am I the only one that thinks a fair catch was the play. The coverage team was pretty closer to Logan when he caught the ball or was that a different punt? I'm fairly certain it was the one in which he fumbled.

              No, I felt the same way.

              But I'll add that when 4 guys not only have you wrapped up and stopped, but are pushing you backwards, the whistle should be blown.

              Holding onto the ball is one thing...holding onto the ball while 4 guys have you stopped, are holding you up and ripping at the ball with all they have is something entirely different.

                yea that was a sweet tackle. nothing like seeing a 5'6 guy take down another 5'6 guy. there have been a number of returns i thought he came pretty close to breaking. i also saw one play he was out with the offense for a screen but ben threw it down the field. i would love to see him catch some screens
