Meachem riceve la palla, ma Gay arriva da dietro e gli fa molto male :gazza:
hall of fame

ragionando in modo più lucido nn sono per niente rassicurato dalla OL e, anche se gli starter hanno giocato veramente poco, completa mancanza di pass rush.
vabbè che è preseason, ma se vogliamo vincere la division (cioè battere i corvacci) ancora nn ci siamo

But, he added, "When I look out there, I just see running backs. I don't see guys that have been in (the NFL) five years, six years, one year. Whoever's putting it in the right spot, holding onto the ball and getting physical, those are the guys you get excited about."
Esattamente quello che volevo sentire.
Ieri s'è tornati a lavoro a Latrobe. Faneca e Foote fuori a causa di piccoli acciacchi.
Colon ha riassaggiato la first unit da right tackle, con Starks provato ancora da LT con la 2nd.
Il posto del Rosso è stato preso da Kemoeatu...qualcuno su PittsburghLIVE faceva notare che il ragazzino ha un nome da cannibale KEMO-EAT-U :lol2:
Dov'erano i TE domenica? Beh almeno di Matt Spaeth si è saputo che non è mai sceso in campo per un infortunio alla spalla.
Ovviamente () anche ieri Timmons s'è visto gli allenamenti dalla sideline.
Sul campo gli highlights sono stati un intercetto in tuffo di William Gay - questo c'ha il vizietto- e una bomba di Godsend per Santonio sbucato alle spalle di TAP...non il palermitano, ma sua maestà Troy Aimua Polamalu.
Intanto mi sa che sabato sarà difficile beccare la partita da qualche parte; non la danno su un network nazionale, quindi al massimo si va di play-by-play...se qualcuno avesse altre notizie in merito, mi piemmizzi pure.

Da quel che ho letto l'infortunio a Hoke dovrebbe essere meno grave del previsto, tanto che si parla di un ritorno agli allenamenti già in settimana.
The Max Starks at left tackle experiment took a hit in Saturday night's preseason 13-9 loss to Green Bay.
Starks struggled in pass protection at left tackle, looking lost at the position this week.
At right tackle Willie Colon looked good, especially run blocking. But that was never a question for him. He did a good job in pass protection as well, but did have a holding penalty.
© Many may have been wondering what happened to Carey Davis, the team's leading rusher in the preseason opener?
The Steelers are apparently happy with what they saw from Davis last week running the ball and wanted to get a look at him as a lead blocker.
They had to like what they saw. Davis, who also had the tackle on the opening kickoff, had an outstanding block to spring Kevan Barlow on a 17-yard run. Later, he was killing guys as a lead blocker for Gary Russell.
Davis has this team made.
That's bad news for John Kuhn, who likely gets cut now that Davis has shown he can play both fullback and halfback.
© Russell is also pushing for a roster spot, but at whose expense?
He likely has to prove that he can play as a third-down back and pick up the blocking duties that entails to have a shot to unseat Verron Haynes, who's an outstanding pass blocker.
He'll probably get his shot at that next week.
© Sean Mahan looked much better at center than Chukky Okobi. I wouldn't be surprised if Mahan gets the start at center again next week in Washington.
He's just a stronger player.
We didn't get to see Mahan getting out in front on any screen plays like Okobi did last week, but I have to believe he can do that as well.
© The Steelers dodged a big bullet when Chris Hoke got leg-whipped by William Gay on a missed tackle in the third quarter.
The initial diagnosis is a hyperextended knee, but it could have been much worse.
Though he's a backup, Hoke could start for a lot of teams. And he's more than capable of giving Casey Hampton a rest at any time or place on the field.
Had Hoke been lost, the team would have been forced to move Travis Kirschke to nose tackle to back up Hampton.
© All that work on special teams and they still don't know how to block on a PAT.
It looked like long-snapper Greg Warren just kept his head down and didn't block anybody on that blocked kick. He also got no help whatsoever from Kendall Simmons, who was lined up to his left, or Chris Kemoeatu, who was on his right.
They all appeared to try to block down on their men.
© Walter Young has been around forever and now has the inside track on being this team's No. 6 receiver this season. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself.
Young has been catching everything at practice and now it's translating over to the games.
At 6-5, he's the biggest of the Steelers receivers and gives the team something none of the other receivers can.
Pittsburgh's starting defense has allowed only 29 yards and one first down during minimal playing time in two preseason games.
