Anybody been watching Joey Porter lately?

Postby Crosby4Life » Tue Nov 04, 2008 10:55 am

I was checking sack totals for Harrison and Woodley to see where they ranked (Harrison in a 3-way tie for second in the league with 10, Woodley is #5 with 9.5), and I saw that Joey Porter leads the league with 11.5 sacks.

What's the deal? Did someone hook him up to the Rejuvenation Machine or something? Is he only playing on passing downs now and just going all out on the QB?

He didn't seem to show anywhere near that capability two years ago.

Joey is playing opposite of big Matt Roth, who really is occupying other team's attention more so far.

Best wishes for Joey though, I'm glad he got a nice payday, and is playing well this year.

Yeah, I had mixed feelings when we let him go. I knew I'd miss his constant jawing the the Bengals players (and I do), but like most people here, I felt his production was slipping and didn't really warrant a contract renegotiation.

Never would have dreamed that he'd be on pace for over 20 sacks at the midpoint of the season.

I never thought the stillers would have 32 at the halfway point (after posting a total of 36 last year)

I hope timmons gets more chances to bring it

Joey in rare form these days. He started with Brandon Marshall calling him soft etc. Marshall retorts were semi-amusing had they not come from such a thug. Joey dancing in clubs without his shirt on is really no surprise. Saying he has a popcorn body was funny. Now Joey going after Matt Jones saying he's the one who should be fined and suspended over his cocaine use not players like Porter who just got fined for criticizing officials. Porter's got a point there...Jones only got 3 games for cocaine possession. That's pretty soft penalty. Congrats on the comeback season Peezy

God bless him for doing well, but his last two years here were dog shit and he in no way deserved the cash Miami was willing to pay him at the time. I don't know what woke him up, maybe Parcells' foot on his neck, but I love to see him at his best.

I laughed sooo frickin hard when I read what he said about Matt Jones. Hilarious. Matt Jones was all bent out of shape about it saying “I don’t know why he is even thinking about me, I mean, maybe he likes other men and sits up and thinks about stuff, so I don’t know.”

Damn

Love Joey P now. Grew to hate his empty rap. Pittsburgh has no patience with a big mouth that doesn't produce.

Maybe we let him go early. That's ok.

The SBXL (we won it, we won it, now what?) hangover, hit Joey hard . . . .

His fire is just rekindling maybe, good for him!

Bill's rocker is still a rockin'!!! :sleep:

For those short sighted souls slamming joey porter as not being on the team anymore YE best realize he will be inducted into the hall of fame as a STEELER.


and yes I do believe he will make it in. If for no other reason than his mouth alone! :subngtowl:

If Porter hadn't been released, what would the Stillers be getting out of Harrison these days? Certainly not Pro Bowl seasons. I don't think we lose anything by having 92 on the field instead of 55. And if we had both on the field together, what about Woodley?

we could have locked up porter as a backup for a reasonable amount. Joey Porter straight up said he was not made any offer at all and that he wanted to retire a steeler.

or at least thats how im going to remember it
