I was refering to cheatriots injuries, any news? I heard our guys are in good shape. I think we may get Troy P. back for this game.

What's up Rex?
Good thing for him 'cause Ward would have knocked his punka$$ out! No of the talking heads are predicting Steelers yet, but having read the matchups of both teams I'm liking it more and more. This guy does a great roundup of Steelers news from the web http://www.steelershotline.com

Tom Brady is a great QB but he also strikes me as a crybaby. Complains to the ref over any late hit.
I really don't think the cheatriots have the stomach to pound it out with the Steelers. I've been over on the patriots forum off and on the past 2 weeks. They were all talking real big before the ravens game and have been strangely quiet since. I think the ravens bruised them pretty bad. Any news about injuries yet? I know the offense and defense are pretty banged up after monday. Maybe they'll wheel out another free agency relic.

What do you make of Anthony Smith's "guarantee" of a victory? I guess one way of looking at it is that it's like Porter calling the Colts "soft." The team rallied around it and vowed to make his words ring true. Smith goes on to say that the Bengals receivers are actually better than the Patriots' corps. Wow. The report was that Farrior wanted to go over and slap him in the head. I'd much rather that he hadn't said it, since those kinds of things often backfire, but now it forces the Steelers to back him up. The difference is, Porter had a lot more locker-room clout than Smith does, which probably lessens the impact of his words on both the Steelers AND the Patriots. One more scattered thought on this: I guess if you're going to fire up a group on the opposing team, the receivers aren't such a bad group to fire up. Maybe Moss will actually run when he's a decoy this time, but I can't see it affecting receiver play very much.

<quoted text>you can guarantee all you want but every other time ive heard a guy guarantee a win, they lost. also a team that loses to the jets on the road has no business guaranteeing anything.

If you see the interview he kind of backed into the statement. They asked if him if he thought the steelers were going to win...Like all players in the NFL he said yeah I think we are going to win. The reporter then asked him if that was a gaurantee...he's just young and got trapped into talking too much.
The last time the Steelers guaranteed a win was when we crushed the colts in the playoffs and it was porter who did the talking. BTW the press had already crowned the colts that year after they went 14-0...just like what's happening to the pats. Once the a team secures a playoff spot the only games that matter are in Jan and Feb.
