He has 45 yards in 7 games. Hes a pocket passer who moves around to avoid players like JPP. JPP is a monster, I wouldnt disagree there, hes one of my favoirite players. But the Steelers arent so much a vertical passing team anymore so JPP wont have time to get there like in years past. This is a totally new offense designed to combat teams with great a pass rush like the NYG, Ravens (of old), etc. It will be a great game for sure and I’m sure there will be plenty of points scored by both teams. Cant wait!

PIT is ranked very high in Time Of Possesson, and if that keeps up, Manning will have to make the most of the few opportunities that he’s actually on the field. No doubt NYG front four will be in hot pursuit of our Big Ben, but – their game plans thus far have been designed for that. Our secondary is the weak link.

49ers are all defense. No offense. Wait til you see our aerial assault by ben. Watch and learn. Big ben. Mvp mvp mvp!!!
———————-
Watch and learn? Maybe you need to do your homework. Eli is 3rd in passing yards-Ben is 9th, Giants pass offense is 2nd- Steelers are 8th, Giants total offense is 2nd- Steelers are 14th. So far we have beaten 3 top 10 offenses (Skins, Boys, and San Fran) and 3 top 10 defenses ( Boys, San Fran, and Panthers). No denying Ben will be tough, but Giants won’t be a walk in the park either. Judging by the stats, maybe the Steelers need to watch and learn from the Champs. Go Blue!!!

The way you handled Vick or RGIII is irrelevant. The argument you are making is that we’ll be unable to handle Ben. My response is that we’re used to defending mobile QBs such as Ben so containing him should be no problem for us. Plus, you better hope Ben doesn’t think he can pump fake it 19 times like he usually does. JPP isn’t some anonymous DE from Cincy.

Plus hes a better passer and QB in general. We handled them pretty well ourselves (2-0) so not sure what point you are trying to make?

I also read the Woodley is hurting. I think a key will be if Harrison can get to his normal playing style as he works his way back from injury. They will need to put ferocious heat on Manning, and may need some DB blitzes mixed in.

I think the Steeler’s offense should be able to have the kind of game they have had, possessing the ball and hopefully continuing to have a decent running attack with more points scored. I don’t care if Ben is less mobile than the other QBs in the Giant’s division, none of them are as talented overall as Ben, none of them. His play will also be a key to the game. If he makes not mistakes, the Steelers should be able to win.

I am really looking forward to this game, against a good tough team like the Giants on the road. A Steeler win will surely send shivers down the spines of the Ravens for 11/18 as the Steelers maintain the pressure on them and build momentum with 3 wins in a row!

GO STEELERS!!

Ben is a statue compared to who we’re used to defending. If his o-line plays as well as it did the last time these teams met, expect the same result.

Giant Win, All In…

Ask RG3 and his 6 rushes for 8 yards about old and slow.

If they can keep that up through the run game and quick passes, Polamalu and possibly Clark being out will be less of an issue.

And remember, Big Ben is not Tony Romo, Giants fans. Steelers will put up points and avoid mistakes, Giants better try to do the same.

NYG will exploit the backup safeties all day long through the air and crank up the pressure on Ben & Haley to try to keep pace with Manning. PIT offense must control TOP and score on every possession, the defense will not be able to contain Manning in the air. What chance do we have that CLE beats BAL ? 4 and 4 does not look or sound good.

The storm has left a lot of girls in vulnerable situations. Or as Ben calls it, “happy days”.
