Thats what they said.....

Then they made excuses that it was only summer and the wind is much worse in the season

[GrnBay007]

ok, I'm sick of the Preseason already, I'm ready to strap it up for real.

That's a good sign?

[J-Rok]

Haha, these Pitt commentators.

"Rodgers has the quicks"

[RIPackerFan]

I have to believe it is a good sign - if we were sucking wind, we would want the preseason to last forever to fix it.

GC has Kabeer with a sack - did he get one?

[BallHawk]

Another question for those watching.....

What happened on Rodgers 20 yard run? Was it the defense was playing deep and he just opted to run or did he actually maneuver and outrun some defenders?

[Guiness]

Nice soft punt by Ryan. Second one he's dropped inside the 20 tonight.

[BallHawk]

Ryan pins them deep? Ball downed at the 5.

The commentators said it's a crazy tough place to kick. They were saying it'd be more impressive in October, but said that still doesn't take away from how great Crosby's leg is.

Heinz Field has been open that long. A few years or so. Kicking at Heinz come fall and winter is different than kicking there in August.

I hope Crosby wins, but more than anything, I just want the one that wins to be reliable. They are pretty similar actually. Rayner has a strong leg also. Both are good on kickoffs. Both can kick the deep one. Both have been somewhat inconsistent. Remember that Rayner was drafted also. I think he might have even been drafted higher than Crosby, so he's not a bad prospect. Both guys will be kicking in the NFL for a long time.

I like hearing that Clark Harris is doing the long snapping. Perhaps we won't need to carry a separate long snapper anymore! That would give them some more flexibility at whatever position needs an extra guy.

Second one he's dropped inside the 5. Anybody want to hate on him some more tonight?

I'd be awfully surprised if that happened. Davis is one of (if the the) best in the business, and he does get a fair number of tackles as well.

The way Harris has reportedly looked in camp, we'd only be carrying him for his long snapping anyways. He has to deserve a spot as a TE. Otherwise, go with old reliable.

Before we get too worked up, remember how bad our first string offense looked.
