ESPN monday is the worst coverage in the game.
Bimbo on each sideline that add absolutly nothing.
Never a single replay on a penalty or lack of penalty call.
Inane babble from who ever the bald guy is in the middle.
weak weak weak. They were better on sudays last year. Now its not even like football coverage.
Whats with the huge blocks of empty seats in the stadium. If Jackson wants to be taken seriosly in the big markets they better start filling the last 25% of thier stadium on a mondy night versus the super bowl thieves.

Your Steelers will do better next week Pongo :P

  PS  If the Jags keep it up, they won't have to worry about an empty stadium.

MNF may suck, but it's an improvment over the old Sunday night ESPN crew.
I thought it looked pretty good in HD with the on-field cameras and mega slo mo.  Great football game regardless of the broadcast.

The fan of a team that managed to beat the lowly Lions by 3 points shouldn't really be casting stones.  :D

At least we had some offense in that game! (210 yards passing, 92 rushing, total 302 yards)  What did the stillers do? 141 yards passing, 26 rushing! :lol

Bragging about offensive yards gained against a defense ranked 20th in the league last year is kind of like being proud that your Ford Escort beat a Yugo.  Kind of pointless, hehe.   Jacksonville was ranked 6th defensively last year and so far looks much improved this year.

Oh now come on, its only football, ya gotta take alittle to give alittle ;) FWIW, Jacksonville beat the Seahawks during their run to the superbowl last year, 14-26.  Their defense is awesome.  Statistically speaking, after 2 games this season, they are ranked 4th and we're 5th for total defense.  Really doesn't mean much at this point of the season...

Steelers historically screw up their first couple of regular season games.... we've come to expect it.... although first blowout since 2003 if I remember correctly.

Hubris and that 5th ring got to them.
