    I wouldn't say bad Offenses, but they aren't light em up offenses either.

    Those types of games are brutal to watch.

    All depends on your perspective. For me the shootout games the Saints typically play are painful to watch

    Point taken. But I would like to see some scoring. I would prefer a 20-17 game. Middle of the road.

    Most likely if we make the playoffs we're gonna have to go through both of these teams. (Balt is the 6th seed, Pitt is 2nd, and we'd be third).Hope mangini caught the game as well lol.

    I'm old school so I loved the Balt - Pitt game. Nothing like watching two tough defenses just slugging it out.

    I don't know if I am old school or not, but that was the best non-Jets game I have watched this year.

    Agreed that our defense sucks as compared to Pitts' and Balt's.

    The Ravens and Steelers D wants to tackle you, hurt you, and take you out of the game.

    The Jets D is finesse, not interested in tackling, we made RBs like Peyton hillis look like Jim brown.

    The Week 4 Steelers-Ravens game was also good, but the best game I saw this year was the Cowboys at Cardinals game.

    i was very disappointed i had to miss this game due to the suck ass patriots being on late this week. yeah fuck the patriots even in not screwing me on the jets game they still screwed me anyway.

    this is EXACTLY what football is supposed to be. the pitt offense is not a bad offense, the baltimore is a grinding and not much more offense but to say they are both terrible is a stretch. the defenses on the other hand are amazing and the game is more about great defense than great offense.

    to say a game like that is brutal to watch is the most absurd thing i have heard (i realize we are all entitled to our opinions, i just dont like yours :) ) i would take a game like that over even a middle of the road game.

    they had to fight and claw for every yard in that game i am sure and had to beware not to make a single mistake or it might be good night. thats great entertaining football, edge of your seat type stuff. much more interesting than the throw it all over the place and hope we dont make any mistakes but if we do its ok.
