Didn't look but I imagine it was closer to 300 yards after that last drive.



But they only had like 50 yards passing. Defense gave up 14 in regulation despite a couple of short fields. OT effort was beyond pathetic, but they got 2 turnovers and gave up 14 in regulation....no way should they get blamed for this.

This team looks soft as silk. Needed a real replacement for timmons. Harrison should have split time today at least. 27th in the league in 3rd down conversion on offense? The whole team is completely out of sync and it all starts with the coaching.

At this point, 2-3 in two weeks wouldn't surprise me.

I said it at the beginning of the season...I'll say it now...no excuses. If this is a Super Bowl team, it should have won these first three games going away.

We're not a Super Bowl team.

BR was dogshit. And still forced high percentage throws.

Once again, it seemed like he missed wide open guys underneath, forcing it to either AB, Schuster, or MB. Bad decisions.

Dumbfounded, I tell you. Flabbergasted


Are you also flabbergasted when you see a rerun on TV and it ends the same way it did the first time you saw it?

Or 10th time?

All I am seeing is Bryant being blanketed, regardless of who the CB is and not using that height, length, etc to win those combat catches. Where was Eli Rogers today? JuJu did some good things and he needs to get more reps in this offense, and if that means Rogers sees the field less then so be it.

I still say they need to deactivate some vet, like a Moats or whoever and get Justin Hunter active and on the field.


Nah dude.

This one's on Roethilsberger.

He was off from the start.

AB was making ridiculous catches of what should be easy pitch and catch plays.

Ben nearly got Jesse James fucking KILLED.

No bigger fan of Ben than I, but he has ABSOLUTELY SUCKED COCK this season.

Dude...they let a one-armed RB tear through them in OT.

The game plan is just all over the place. Mike Tomlin can just fuck off. Mike Glennon owns him

Yeah talk about how good the D was all you want, but with the game on the line, they allowed holes big enough to drive a truck through and RB's to run the length of the field.

They gave up nearly 300 yards on the ground because Mike Glennon couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

The Bears were COMPLETELY one dimensional and, even though they 100% knew the run was coming, they couldn't stop it.

At all.

Life is all about managing expectations.

I'm trying to manage 14 points on offense.

No one was open, and people wonder why Ben forces the ball to AB. You watch NE and Brady is throwing to guys with no one around them for 3 yards....while all our guys are out there getting their inseams measured

On defense, we are missing:
Watt
Tuitt
Sean Davis

missing them badly..

Chickillo is a huge huge negative -- Don't understand why Deebo wasn't playing

Yeah. Why is that?

I don't generally bash coaching, but haley is a fucking idiot, and BR has too much rope.

Ben wasn't bad, he was HORRIBLE.

Game should have been over sooner, when Kyle Fuller baited Ben into what should have been a game ending INT.

Ben threw it RIGHT TO HIM.

Ben played like shit but he didn't drop a punt, allow a field goal to be blocked, drop a sure td and miss 700 tackles today. The defense was fucking putrid.

Every QB gets away with a throw or two like that a game.

If your offense relies on your QB to constantly rifle balls into small windows, QB isn't your problem.

They sure were, but Ben held the ball too long, threw horrible passes in key situations, made numerous retarded decisions, etc.

It was a team effort, but Ben truly may be nearing the end.

We continue to be a low IQ team. Bell doesnt run well from the draw and coaching staff continues to force that. Ben needs to be under the QB for play action, but they don't do that. They continue to go for low percentage plays on third down. People will take away AB, and Ben has to look somewhere else. If jesse James is invisible get Todd in there. On defense, they are continue to use Chickillo who sucks against the run, but they won't put in Deebo who excels against the run. This is just a low IQ team from top to bottom. They will never beat Brady.

I bought tickets for the Steeler Lions game, but I am seriously considering selling them now even at a loss.
