what a waste of 3 hours of my time that was! i actually listened to it on fieldpass... holy crap.
just to give you guys a brief....
Gus 7/18 for 87 yards and two fumbles
AJ 16/20 for 95 yards, zero tds/zero ints (but played in the 3rd-4th quarters, against steelers clean-up crews)
Sage 4/6 for 38 yards and one INT.
the fins had EIGHT fumbles and the one INT.
NINE turnovers. its a miracle the steelers were only able to score seventeen points on us. in fact i don't know if that says more for our defense or less for their offense.
our defense looked decent at times, but our secondary is still suspect and their first string O ran all over our first string D. that's not confidence inspiring?
what's my point? well you guys probably didn't watch or listen to this game (and aren't you lucky you didn't?). FYI the fins have moved backwards in each of their 3 preseason games.
our only points? 3 on a Mare field goal.
other notables: McMike dropped like 5 passes, and fumbled another. Welker had a huge 42-yard pass from Gus, and Welker had a decent game. Ricky was stuffed, only got 9 yards on 5 carries, with an EIGHT-yard run in there. our running game sucked. david boston looked great, had 5 catches for 34 yards. feeley's stats are misleading - they were mostly four-yard outs and passes out of the backfield.... easy plays that inflate stats. Diamond continues to impress at TE. Chambers only had one catch for 9 yards, but had another that was called out of bounds. Frerotte had a pass that was an INT but was ruled out of bounds.
final score: pitt 17, mia 3.
so yeah, not fun. i would say its safe to say you are in no danger of falling to the fins this year..... in all honesty.
