Three blogs in one day. I deserve a raise. A big raise.

Now that I've got that off my chest and I've reviewed another game on my DVR, it's time for the Week 3 Up-Down Drill, sponsored by my eyes. This week, a flying Brian Dawkins will represent the ups and a grounded Ben Roethlisberger will handle the downs.

BRIAN DAWKINS

Look, up in the air, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's a 34-year-old man. What a play. What a game. What kind of idiots would think this guy's career is over?

BEN ROETHLISBERGER

Bet you the Steelers' quarterback had a headache today. We know he had a handache.

SAV ROCCA

This guy must have been a lot of fun to watch in his Australian Football League prime.

WILLIE PARKER

For one of the few times in his career, he looked like a backup running back from North Carolina.

JUQUA PARKER

He was in so many places, it seemed as if Juqua Thomas was on the field with him.

MIKE TOMLIN

The Steelers' coach had a good game plan, but he must have lost it at the airport.

JIM JOHNSON

Or perhaps the Steelers' game plan mistankly ended up in the mail box of the Eagles' defensive coordinator.

 

PITTSBURGH'S OFFENSIVE LINE

Their heads turned so often it appeared as if Adam Eaton was protecting Big Ben.

HANK BASKETT

He's another reason Reggie Brown may never start for the Eagles again.

BRIAN WESTBROOK

It'll be shocking if the Eagles' star running back returns from his ankle injury in the near future.
