the vikings pass defense is ranked 24th in yards per attempt.

stillers are ranked tied for 2nd in yards per attempt.

the big plays will be there for the stillers.

i don't know how to eliminate YAC from the calculations, but i know the big plays are there also. pass pro has been awesome for the past games, and flacco had time to throw.

did you see where the microphone fell during the polamalu question?

right at the beginning (first 5 seconds).

vikes will be the first 4-3 defense we've played since cincy (detroit doesn't count). i'm not expecting much from the RB's. hopefully big ben can torch that secondary.

what's with the steelers-jaguars picture? and why do you have a picture of amos zeroue (er, mewelde) when you are writing about mendenhall?

that oline in the picture is marvel - kemo - (hartwig) - darnell - colon... was that picture supposed to be a joke, or just a mistake?

for the record, the guys are talking about running the no huddle as a weapon. then hartwig mentions it's effective, "as long as he's (ben) not calling out 'black cowboy' in the future" which gets big laughs.

so i went back and watched week 1 again. the play where ben calls out "black cowboy" is the play where kearse comes unblocked from the right side and crushes ben. i still think that was on 'tone who missed a quick screen, but that's a long time ago now...

if i were dick lebeau, i'd pull a buddy ryan and punch arians in the face. and yes, i just compared arians to kevin "throw it in the trash can" gilbride.

i heard hoge on pittsburgh radio last week and he said, "the truth is, no playoff team wants to be playing their best football in sept." i agree - let's see all the cracks in the armor now, and then we can work on them during the next 4-5 weeks. then you figure out what you really can and cannot do, and for the remainder of the season, that's what you play with.

you call out mendy in week 3 so that he's mentally prepared in week 15. i agree with that, and anyway, i'd just as soon have willie get 20-25 carries every game to get rolling.

i'm sick and tired of hearing the defense is old (from the press conference). the reality is that this is a different team without troy. i hate phil simms, but he's right that troy makes the tackle on benson's TD run, troy probably stuffs both 4th down's on the last drive, as well as the TD. and that's not to blame TC - it's just that troy is the sickest ball hawk, and he makes those plays.

while the 2nd consecutive game winning drive was allowed by the DEF, let's make no mistake in remembering this game was lost three different ways by the offense. if limas makes that freaking catch (i hate this guy now forever), we're not talking about any of this.

are limas' days in pittsburgh over (again)?

mike wallace has turned into what i was expecting from limas - except wallace is faster.

oh, and he doesn't drop 80% of the ball thrown to him. and wallace hasn't dropped two critical touchdowns that would have sealed ball games. and wallace doesn't wear the same jersey number as neil freaking o'donnell.

"Chad Scott would be proud of that cushion."
