Sen'Derrick Marks just had a huge tackle to put the nail in the Colts' coffin.

Parkey gets a shot at redemption today.

I believe CAP is getting the start again. F the Falcons

I think Mike Shula has finally killed Cam Newton. Never would have thought in a million years that Cam Newton would have a beaten down look on the field.

Ro' Tide Ro', Mikey.

BB, our offense is horrible but we have a patchwork OL and a shitty WR crew. Not only that, Cam cannot get in sync with CAP and Tolbert on the zone read. Our young cornerbacks are taking it dry from Julio right now as well. Gonna be a long season...

Cam just got concussed and he is out of the game. He scored on a 2 point try but he seemed too nonchalant about getting to the paydirt and received a shot to his helmet.

Cam gets none of the protection that every other QB in the league gets.

It is ridiculous, they purposefully target hit and nothing gets called.

If they want to treat him like every other RB/WR when he runs, fair enough. Not even given him that courtesy is ridiculous

Even WR/RB are supposed to be protected from intentional shots to the head with the crown of the defenders helmet.

And, no matter what the dumbasses who are announcers are saying, that's EXACTLY what it was.

If the tackler is 6' and the runner is walking in at 6'5, you can't have an acceptable tackle where helmets hit. Just isn't possible, physics and stuff

By the way BB, Whitaker had 9 receptions today after 6 last week. If you wanted outlet passes, you're getting 'em.

frick the refs, the dirty birds, their fans, Shula, and Gettleman.

Steelers' Sammie Coates joins elusive 40-40-40-40 club

And he's hitting the Steelers' record books, catching at least one pass of 40 yards or more in four consecutive games, tied for the second-longest streak in team history. The record is six.

Sammie Coates is the freaking man. Funny how his role hasn't changed much since college. Just sprint down the field and catch the ball.

Remember when a lot of you actually believed that Duke Williams was more talented than Coates?

He just had a pretty big drop. Ball literally went right through his hands.

Ummm, Duke is still a better pass catcher. He's just dumb as hell and doesn't have the work ethic to overcome his deficiencies (his speed) like Coates has.

Coates still has stone hands and is bad at finding the ball in the air. He's in the NFL because he had ideal size and is an top tier athlete with freakish strength and speed. If he had Duke's attitude problem then teams probably wouldn't be willingly to overlook his bad hands. And if Duke had Coate's good attitude and work ethic teams would've been more willing to overlook his lack of speed.

Dukes problem was never lack of talent. He had enough talent that one point he was considered he top WR prospect in all of CFB.

Being a better pass catcher does not dictate talent.

There are a hundred guys in the NFL who can do what Duke Williams does...better. That is why he's sitting on his arse; whereas even with drops Sammie Coates is now an integral part of Pittsburgh's offense and will continue to be so. 40+ yard catch in each of the first 5 games? That is basically guaranteed points on each of those receptions.

At no point in time was Duke Williams more talented. Never. Not even once. The only moron who had him as the "top WR prospect" was Mel Kiper; so please don't try and slip that bullshite past me. Mel Kiper hasn't been relevant in a decade. Duke Williams was never even a Top 3 receiver in this CONFERENCE; how the hell could he therefore be the best prospect in the COUNTRY?
