Gates makes splash in return from suspension

Seeing that the Mike Vick experiment isn’t working out entirely too well for the Steelers, you’d have to imagine that Mike Tomlin isn’t going to be as conservative as he was against the Baltimore Ravens two Thursdays ago. “We didn’t get it done”.

San Diego rookie Josh Lambo kicked a go-ahead, 54-yard field goal with 2:56 left.

“It’s real tough, you know, losing at home the way we did it’s definitely tough, but we’re professionals we got to get over it and get ready for next week”, Flowers said. All the raucous Steelers fans at the stadium made it hard for Rivers to properly communicate with his offense.

“Make sure I was safe to get the ball over”, he says. Melvin Gordon was used heavily in the second half and even out-targeted Woodhead 9-6 in the pass game after entering the game with six targets total the first four weeks. “How about the support that we had in the building tonight?”

Philip Rivers, forever weird.

Miller is not quite the player that he once was, but what he remains-speaking purely as a football player-is still worthy of envy from many teams around the league for what he is able to contribute to an offense as a blocker, as a pass catcher, and as an all-around iron man, who at 33 in a little over a week continues to log almost every snap of every game. An unnecessary roughness call against San Diego’s Jahleel Addae moved the ball a half-yard closer to the end zone and stopped the clock. We were in silent count and we had no chance.

“It’s not how you start”, Vick said after the game. Specifically, 49 percent of time spent with ESPN Digital properties on Sunday was with the ESPN Fantasy Football app, which attracted 7,028,000 unique visitors and an average minute audience of 483,000 – up 32 percent and 53 percent respectively compared to the previous year.

Gates’ presence was felt from the jump, as Rivers hit his long-time target with the first pass of the game. Brown leads team receiving.

Rivers has thrown 74 touchdown passes to Gates, the most from a QB to a tight end in National Football League history. “When it actually came, it was the last play of the game”.
