Matt Loede

Third Quarter Thoughts: All Thoughts on Roethlisberger
Parker up to 90 yards…I guess Tomlin wasn’t fooling anyone…all the starters are still in there… Big play by the D gets a pick by Carter. The short field results in a chip shot field goal by Reed that makes it 17-0. The D is playing more than well enough to pitch the shutout against [...]

Pregame Thoughts from the Press Box at Heinz Field
* Gameday here in Pittsburgh, and the weather isn’t a problem at all. Yet. I think we’ll see some high winds as the day goes along, and there is a chance of some rain. With that, it was nice driving in and having to put sunglasses on, and not having to be frozen walking into [...]
Will Dixon Be the Next to Run the Wildcat Offense?
From: Pittsburgh Tribune Review Dennis Dixon gave the Steelers’ defense a look at what they will see Sunday against the visiting Browns. Did the rookie quarterback also provide a glimpse into the future for the Steelers’ offense while playing the role of Cleveland’s Joshua Cribbs in practice?
