Refs calling bullshit holding.

Worse than the WWF.

Why do you think George Pickens, who flashed superstar ability all season and Kenny Pickett, who obviously grew up and played really well late in the season, are only going to connect on 2 TD passes next year?
Matt Canada's offense.

Steeler's recent inability since Mann retired to develop receivers.

Save up those food stamps, buddy. You're going to be donating $100 to Steelerfury next year.

At least this game solidifies in my mind, that if we build our team to beat the Bengals, that should be good enough for a Super Bowl window.
We'll just have to consistently recreate Week 1 every time. 8-)
Where Burrow hadn’t gotten any work with his offense in preseason?

Not likely.
Next season coming out and punching them in the mouth in the home game should be worth a victory. It is the away game or the low energy game where we have to overcome that with talent. Just have to acquire speed and let them play early if they are rookies.

So do those false starts.

Andy Reid probably thinking "let's not score too quickly and give the ball back to Burrow"

Again.....

Matt Canada was coordinator this year. Neither Pickett and Pickens knew what the hell they were doing.

...and Pickens finished with 4 TD catches.

:lol:

Are you blaming Matt Canada for Diontae not having even 1 single TD catch or coaching for Diontae regressing?

Psssst......that's not on the coaches or Matt Canada.

That's on Diontae Johnson.

Bingo. That tackle was huge and effectively made it the same as a good punt.

It was like a punt. Chiefs started deep in their own territory.

Chiefs driving now. Bengals defense needs to stop them or not let them run the clock out.
