Born and raised in Western Pennsylvania, football is in my blood. It's all I do, and I'm proud to be doing it here.

    You are a truly a wonderful writer. May the gods shine their black and gold light on Steelers Nation and scorn every other franchise for 100 years.

    Hi Andrea

    Couple of months ago you wrote an article on the 49ers. It was playoff football. 49ers vs Saints. You picked the Saints to win, and I gave you crap for it, and called your article "The Worst Article on Bleacher Report That I've Read." Well, I've been reading your articles lately, and I'm here to tell you that I was wrong in saying that. You have tons of talent, and give quality info!

    Hopefully, you didn't read my last comment. But if you did... I take it all back!

    Keep up the good work!

    Andrea, what do you think will come of Colt McCoy? It seems the Brandon Weeden forces McCoy down the depth chart and maybe out of town.

    Very good writer. One of the more consistent and comprehensive writers at Bleacher/report. How can you take Gretzky over Bobby Orr? HAHA!!

    your last article was terrible! it was almost like you were just making stuff up.
    - they never draft by need
    - they always take best available player
    - fans haven't been upset by their drafts in recent years
    - we're actually really excited about recent years draft
    - and just by the way Cam Heyward is a DE not a DT

    Yeh pretty much love all your articles that I have read. Gotta love the Steeler girls of the world for sure as well honey. Justin Kirk below, I dont see Weeden making it into the 2nd round to your team honestly. I think there is gonna be a surprise team to either trade back in to the 1st round or early 2nd if you guys havent already selected a QB. Cuz I think most teams know that the Browns will be up for drafting a future starter or someone that can push McCoy. Go Steelers

    I enjoy your articles, agree with some of them and I am glad you are a Steeler fan.

    I see that you cover the browns so I want to run this by you and see if you can create an article or something. What if the Browns select Blackmon at 4th, an OL at 22nd and Weeden in the second round. Don't you think that would give this offense some life. Then they could either draft Pead, Holk, or Turbin later on for a running back or trade away a few low picks for Ben Tate.
