9. I guess a Dolphin fan knows about choking.
Since Danny Boy did it SO many times.

20. Big Ben will not choke. He hasn't played like a rookie all year.
There. That's the present and future.

25. Sure he has....
He's going to be a hall of famer someday no doubt....But I've seen many instances where he looked like a Rookie.

12. The Steeler will win because...
Edited on Tue Dec-21-04 09:46 AM by Darknyte7
They have the best defense in the league.

They run the football.

They have the best receiving corps in the league.

They only need to win one of therir last two games to lock up home field.

17. So you plan to hold on to that "rookie QB" arguement?
No rookie has won their first 12 starts either. That is until Big Ben did it...

19. Hell yeah I hold on to it....
It's a big big point when analyzing the playoff situation. I'm telling you now that who ever the Steelers face will go after the Rookie big time.

29. Not the way the Steelers play. They'll run on the Colts or Pats.
And the Chargers will freeze.

24. They've been going after him a season.
The Steelers run the ball way too well for defenses to come after Rothlisberger too agressively...

22. Add three veteran receivers, 2 power running backs,
2 more running backs with huge potential, a strong and smart All-Pro offensive line, a crack special teams unit and the best defense in football. Shoots the rookie QB argument out of the water.

18. Who else is there in the NFC? No one comes close.
A soft Eagles team will make it short work for the Stillers. Trust me. :evilgrin:

30. they have pLaxico
ask your doctor about pLaxico.

pLaxico may not be right for everyone.

do not take pLaxico if you are pregnant or are currentLy on hyper tension medicine.

in rare cases, pLaxico may cause dizziness, nausea, bLindness, rectaL bLeeding, hives, and homicidaL tendencies.
