can Kurt throw a spiral? makes you wonder about the thumb still

He never has. Hey ... if they get there, they get there.

Say - that was a pretty short day's work for Edge - I'm assuming he's out. (?)

Antonio Smith stuffs the run... 3 yard loss.

That's another thing we need to be better at, run stop.

Adrian Wilson - You wont make thr pro bowl until you stop missing tackles. Thats 2 missed clear missed tackles. The first he looked like he was trying to tackle the football rather then Ben. And the second he way over pursued and tried an arm tackle. You are good bro but its time to bring consistency to the table, that is all you are missing from you game.

Pace - I like the way he takes on blockers on the strong side. Each time they ran his direction he held at the point of take giving the other defenders more time to make plays.

Pendy - there were 9 plays from Pitt on their first drive. I believe there were 5 different DL groups on the field. one being our standard look, another having Watson in the game, another having lewis in at DT, another passing down unti of Berry, Okeafer, Smith, and Dockett. There was one more but I doubt tell the players number.

JJ - Well he doesnt look like a wuss.

Bronson - The stuff in the backfield by Poli in the red zone was Bronson block, it was his job to seal off that edge, and the guy he did block looked like crap. He blocked the from his side instead of facing up on him. that is never going work.

Fransisco - Dude is a bullet on special teams.

Antonia Smith- 6'4" 280....could be a great long term answer at LDE. Hopefully he shows a lot this year. I remember when DG drafted him and everyone was like "WTF, another DE?"

Forget the thumb already. I have highlight film after highlight film of him from 99' to today and he rarely throws a spirl, just completions.

I do like how our pass blocking is shaping up.

Still dont see what direction the run blocking will go yet. Hopefully more time in a brand new scheme will help this. Lets see how things change preseason game to game.

Boldin missed a texted book catch.

I like shipp as a wedge buster on special teams.

I also like what we have seen from JJ and Walters on returns so far. Already looks like night and day from last year.

Still dont like our run blocking though.

This offense is just awesome. They're taking the defending Superbowl champs to school. If they get the running game going in the next couple of weeks then this will considered one of the best offenses ever.

Is Pitt still playing their starters on D?

Still not sure about Wells and Step getting push on the run game.

And Shipp isnt fast enough for run plays off the edges.

They were on the first series and score.

I know. But I dont think they were on the 2nd one.

Pace sounds like he is having a great game.

Hes put on several pressures and been around every tackle.
