Fair enough. But at 10-3 maybe they are keeping Wallace under the radar for the post season.

Even without a true #1 the Steelers are 10-3 not 6-7....and already have a 1,000 rusher with 3 games to play......

Him dropping intermediate passes and not being able to get open is just a guise.... I like the idea....very sneaky

It was merely an answer as to why I think they have looked inept on offense at times, not saying that it takes them from great to suck.

Christ.....maybe Holmes is a little better on short routes....but Hines isn't quite as good as he used to be and the line is atrocious on pass rushes......maybe those things play a part.
There are VERY FEW receivers I would trade Wallace for.
As for the defense saving them and how many times can it happen.......well with 2 of the 3 best defensive players in football, AND Lamar Woodley, Timmons, Hampton, Farrior and a HOF coordinator......it's possible every game if the offense isn't killing it.

The only debate here is the fact that the offensive line completely sucks. Has to be the worst in the NFL. Wallace doesn't have enough time to get open. Seriously, Brady and Manning wouldn't last a game behind this line. Thank God we have Ben on the team.

Brady would...he'd hit the 3rd option in 2 seconds to avoid much killing by the rush.

Traditionally I am not a huge Ben fan, but this season he is very impressive. No o line, and making wins happen despite injuries and illegal hits. He bounces right up and keeps playing.

TO + Ocho 7 receptions 89 yards and no TD
Polamalu + Woodley 3 receptions 71 yards and 2 TD
How are the statistics done on the Polamal pitch on his 2nd int.......his first INT was a 49 yarder and the 2nd one he intercepted on the goal lline.....ambled to the 20...but pitched it acorss the field a was picked up on the 14 by another teammate and returned to about the 18....he returned it 20 yards......but I could see credit for 14 yards.....do they divide the total return in half? If so the other Steeler wasn't given any return yardage....Polamalu was credited with 57 return yards.......49+ ???????? I just don't see how they got to 57 as the total of the two with no credit given to anyone else.

10-3..not bad
the offense needs to pick it up, obviously, but they moved the ball well and had some big catches, just couldn't finish drives
a lot of big defensive efforts
that Polamalu is pretty good
