Steelers run past Panthers second string?
The Pittsburgh Steelers ran past Carolina's second strind defense in a game which featured most of our youngsters,especially the rookie corp. They held their own against a strong Pittsburgh offensive line, for the most part up to the fourth quarter, and thats when Pittsburgh took advantage. Our offense was lethargic, but surprisingly moved the ball against a stubborn Pittsburgh defense. Both Cantwell and Pike succombed to the Pittsburgh pass rush and we think that John Fox wanted to see their reactions under the gun of real NFL style pass defense. FCP will give a slight edge to Pike, as he was running for his life out there. Armanti Edwards looked so-so with the mountaineer package, while Gettis showed some of his moves. Our best looking rookies were on the defense as a whole except for #35, who was trying a bit too hard and got turned around on a TD pass. There were the penalty's that were costly as well, so they shot themselves in the foot a couple of times. FCP thinks the Carolina nation is ready for these last cuts, and lets play some football. We probably will cut some good kids, but the bottom line is you've got to perform and thats the nature of their jobs. We're wondering if our offense will score a TD aganst the G-men next week!
