    How anyone can say that the 80 yarder was due to a "blown coverage"is beyond me. The coverage was not "blown" at all. Whiz and the offense knew that that particular corner (22 I believe?) was very aggressive in jumping underneath sideline routes. We saw evidence of this on the Mett pick six where the same guy jumped that badly thrown out route.

    In order to exploit that, they ran a double move (out and up) right at him. The guy read the out and jumped up to undercut it just like we thought he would and put himself in a position where he couldn't recover to defend Nate as he broke up field. Mett then did his part by throwing an absolutely perfect ball which Nate didn't even have to break stride to catch. Blown coverage means that a guy literally forget to cover his zone or just straight up plays the wrong coverage. This was a guy getting exploited for his over-aggressiveness. Learn your football.

    How can anyone complain about Mett thus far? How can some of you guys seem almost "hopeful" that he fails? If he can be the guy we're done wasting first round picks on Qbs.

    We'll be starting our fourth game with the same QB under center, that in itself is a major milestone. Plus he looked WAY better against the Steelers than VY did his first game and Locker would have probably thrown out his shoulder on that long bomb to Nate.

    I'm not ready to pop the cork on the champagn just yet but I'm very optimistic with what I'm seeing so far. I'm sick of these "mobil" QBs who can't read defenses, have accuracy issues or get hurt every other week.

    Did you watch all of the game? Or did you check in for the post game show? You sound just like those guys on 104.5 the zone. You want to talk about inaccurate throws, fine lets do it. First of all, go back and watch all the games this season. How many times did Jake and Charlie OVERTHROW someone running a SEEM route that was wide open? Did Big Ben make any bad throws during the game VS a TERRIBLE defense (US)?

    Go back again and watch Mettenberger vs the Ravens. Watch his 2.5 drives to start the game vs a DECENT defense. then watch when Walker goes out? When you are 2-8 and have not had a solid QB since McNair, when I see a guy throw it well as a rookie and who isn't scared (maybe not by choice) to stay in pocket, I am going to get excited. The guy has started 3 games now and each game has grown more and more. And NO HE WAS NOT CONSISTENTLY INACCURATE throughout the pittsburgh game. Was he perfect? No. What QB'S are PERFECT? Watch the Colts Pats game? LUCK has an INT problem, so with your standards we should chill out right? STOP.

    Defense is key for early picks next season. We have tried the WR thing and its not working out just setting us back. However, our defense is killing us. You are right about NO running game. Even on Sankey's td, our Center gets blown back which almost caused a blown play. Solid post.

    You draft defense in the 1st and then find a speed WR in the 2nd rnd. With Metts cannon of an arm we need another guy to play opposite of Hunter who can really challenge the defense deep. Wright is nothing more than a slot receiver.

    Round 1: pass rusher - Ray, Gregory, fowler, Beasley
    Round 2: nose tackle - Shelton, Phillips, brown, Goldman
    Round 3: receiver - Lockett, strong/Parker ( possible draft day slide)

    I would be happy with that

    Mett has played 3 games and you guys are crowning him. He really hasn't shown anything that makes me believe he is the future.
