"Jason Campbell struggles against the Steelers"

I liked the deep pass play calls. They created a vertical aspect for the offense even though they were incomplete. We've been so conservative for so long, I think it is good to do things to keep safeties from cheating towards the line of scrimmage.

Yep. And I think we'll get better at it as we go along. It's not like we've done it in a lot of games. I was happy to see the effort. It surprised me. It helps make the "D" play back a little and helps to open things up underneath.

I agree I loved seeing them at least trying to throw deep. Campbell seriously missed a TD on the first one, the throw was way off. Kelly had the step on the defense, he just put it where they could still recover and make the play. I agree though keeping a few deep plays in the playcalling will loosen everything up closer to the line of scrimmage, even if they arent completed.

how you can find anything positive out of the passing game is a little weird. i've been saying it for over 2 years now...JC is not a starting QB in the NFL. his performance was pathetic

So you jumped to a conclusion, essentially? That's what you're telling us?
