    I could see a fine but a draft pick would be just wrong.

    He actually has broken some tackles of late. Early in the year he seemed to go down with even the slightest contact or the weakest arm tackle.

    They are a mediocre run defense. Would be huge for Miller to have a strong outing, then play action to Wallace deep.

    60% chance of Snow! (though possibly a mix of Rain/snow which would suck) I love snow games...hope this Dolphins team knows how to play in it!

    Was our last snow game when Reggie Bush dominated in Buffalo? Good game that was!

    He should be able to build on that against a weaker Steelers run defense. PB is #18 against the run, allowing a 4.1 avg and they have given up 13 TDs on the ground, which ties them for fifth place in that category.

    shouldn't bother Wake, they will be just a couple hours from his alma mater, Penn State. :D

    please man don't let this game be dictated by the weather, this is what makes me shake my head about the SB in New Jersey this year....you have 2 teams fighting their asses of to get into the big game and then it will be probably not only the opponent you have to worry about but the weather too, i hope they stop this nonsense

    Wallace is definitely pumped up for the game and anticipating the fans staying on him all game.

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/1...usses-return-pittsburgh?ex_cid=espnapi_public

    In the meantime, we haven't beaten the Steelers at their home since 1990. WTF? Let's fix that.

    Luckily for us, their OLine is worst than ours as is their running game. http://espn.go.com/blog/pittsburgh-...steelers-offensive-line?ex_cid=espnapi_public

    They just signed an OLineman that the Bills dumped months ago... http://espn.go.com/blog/pittsburgh-steelers/category/_/name/pittsburgh-steelers


    Like the Pats and Bills, they are vulnerable. Let's win this s*** and not F*** it up like in those games.

    See how nice I am? I could have quoted your post and embarrassed you in front of everyone. Instead, I gave you a chance to edit it and save face.

    I seem to recall Ricky Williams taking one to the house in Buffalo in snow - or maybe my memory is fuzzy. Also, we won in dallas in the snow thanks to Leon Lett!

    You know the more I watch that Tomlin highlight , the more I see his grin, and the other players and coaches on the sideline grinning like prics, the more I think they need a good *** whoppin.

    The team is backing Tomlin, teasing him a bit in practice, you know he's going to be intense for this game...I'm pretty sure his team will reflect that demeanor..were gonna need to play our best game of the season, and I think we will, I believe our confidence is at the highest point of the season, may the best team win.

    Coach says after watching the tape, his defense is playing very fast right now, "the tape shows great effort and energy".

    Coached liked the look of mike G..

    Coach acknowledges that the team knew about the dolphin section at the stadium..he said it felt for them like they were the home team at times, they thought it was awesome.

    I think you have to send bodies at Ben..yes, he understands and has a feel for where pressure is coming from, but he's not fast like newton, the more bodies covering space in the pocket the better.

    Sam says in this scheme, players have to be slower reading the cutback lanes and seams, if you run to fast, you run yourself out of the execution of the play..

    Mike Wallace said he did the jet move after he scored for the dolphin fans that asked him to do it at the team hotel, the fans said he talked with them longer than anyone and was really cool to them.

    I might start drinking early..this is our season, this is a chance to make it all good around these parts..this is a chance we take this young team and continue to build onto it during the offseason with enthusiasm.

    Sam Madison is kind of difficult to listen to, but if you listen hard he makes some very interesting observations from what he saw at the corner position in relation to other positions.

    Been listening to a lot of interviews today, including the Jess agler ones.

    I noticed that Philbin complimented Sherman for sticking to the run during the jet game, he said it in a way that made me feel the importance of being able to establish balance for this offense..

    I absolutely get the feeling this defense knows that it has underperformed this season relative to how they talked before the season started, I also sense tremendous confidence in their abilities as a unit to shut down an offense at this point and time, almost a feeling that the other team is not gonna score unless they do something spectacular..it's almost like they have finally figured out their roles in the defense and can now play fast, I think the last three weeks have shown an attitude by this defense that will travel well to pittsburg, I think their finally hungry..

    Wait a minute, in that presser Tomlin did yesterday did he admit it was intentional?, I thought he did?

    Steeler fans are crushing him.

    you know i love you man, but sometimes you just think to much, he deserved to be fined for the crap he did, it was pure intentional, i hope they take a draft pick from them too later on, but to think they will be more intense because their coach tried to handicap the game with an uncalled for dirty trick and got busted....hell no, they should be ashamed of this kind of behavior...i would be

    Ellerbe says that our offense will need to keep it's composure, steelers fans are brutal and will get in your head if your not mentally tough..

    Should be interesting to see how our Qb will handle a playoff atmosphere in northeastern conditions..

    This game is it boys..

    I think the way he uses his legs and deals with pressure in the pocket will determine the outcome of the game,

    Nice to have a big game in December. Really hope this team comes out fired up. While the Jets are an awful football team, they are a division opponent and those games are always just a little bit different. We put a whoopin on the Jets and it could have been much much worse if we cash in on the opportunities in the first half. That kind of game can instill confidence in a team that can carry over. That's what I am looking for. A team that gained confidence from last weeks game and come out fired up, playing like confident athletes, which in turn will allow them to play faster. If we do that, and win this game, it could be a turning point for this team and franchise.

    Ellerbe states that you just needs reps and reps before you start to feel comfortable in the system and play fast, he says he's not there yet but feels things changing..

    A true great corner has changed the game for us defensively..
