If our offencse doesn't score points, it will get ugly fast. I think our D is on the verge of giving up. They give the offense every opportunity and it's always for nothing. If the offense can score 17 points, I think we have a chance. If we score 6 again, watch Bettis rumble for a couple of late TD's against our demorolized defense late in the game to make it a blow out.

I agree our defense is on the verge of throwing their hand's in the air their frustration is mounting and ready to explode.

For those who think the Skins will win outright, you can get 7-1 odds on that at various on-line sports books.
Pittsburgh wins here 20-13.
Keep an eye on Troy Palumaulo (sp?) who is the Pitts safety. This guy is REALLY good. He's "Roy Williams good" and "Brian Dawkins good" and "Ed Reed good". He came out of USC and was a rookie last year but did not play a lot due to "nagging injuries" whatever they are...

Riggo44, I suggest you try and get your friend to his limit before the game is over. It'll definately save you some money. ;)

I hope the Skins' defense does not just toss their hands in the air because there is a precendnt they should try to emulate.
There was a team that went almost a full month without scoring an offensive TD; I think they went over 15 quarters with nothing but field goals from the offense. As I recall, they went 2-2 in that 4 game stretch because the drefense just stoned the other treams cold and scored a TD or two on its own.
That team went on to win the Super Bowl that year; it was the Baltimore Ravens. Really dominant defenses find ways to score if the offense can't

Luxorreb is back in town from a US tour.
I'm predicting major upset in Ketchup land on Sunday!
Call me crazy but I got a feeling...
Hitting Portis on a screen instead of Betts is the answer.
Skins win by 11 pts.
I had that same feeling last week, and look where it got us... :doh:
That said, I can never pick against the Skins (I never put money on it), so Skins win 17-13.
Really, Roeth hasn't played that great the past couple games, but the Bus has been rolling (pardon the pun). If we can stop the run, we win...simple as that.....oh, and actually getting into the end zone would help too! ;)
We'd better have Griffin back this week if we expect to contain the Steelers running game. We clearly missed his presence last week.

Look for Mr. Porter and Mr. Farrior to put the lock down on Portis. Thus, making Ramsey throw for another 30 times all for 140 yards, 1 td, and 1 int. Also, plenty of stupid penalties to take us out of the red zone and force viva ah Ola to miss again. Score 23-10 Steelers.

I believe Hall should be back this week, so I guess you could give us 3-6 more points??? ;)
