I think we blow the Bengals out and it starts a new era of dominance over them.

You overestimated Dean Peas, I knew when we left multiple TDs on the field we would lose and you'd steel the game, classic Steeler steel last night.

No I see it and agree, but he's heralded as a sure fire top 3 guy, I think he needs to prove it a little more. I'd take Luck, one of few QBs I'd take over our guy. But he seems to be excused from a lot of mistakes, I call him overrated but I still think he's very good, better than Ben.

Ben is the most overrated QB in the league next to Andrew Luck

Yea it was somewhat reminiscent but only about 1/20th as painful

I don't care what anyone says, we're the better team and we let them off the hook. If this is the big bad Steelers we have to fear than I look forward to next year with a better roster.

Very true, Ben had always had better WRs , if Flacco only had Steve in his prime, or Mason. I thought this as well, looked like a block in the back on his one TD. When your team gets called for 0 holding that's pretty favorable.

I can concede this one, the Zutah hold and the fact that 0 holding was called on them, Perriman getting blasted Burfict on AB style but Mosley getting the call were favorable for them. By no means and I'm blaming the officials, and missed holds happen, when you have a dominate pass rush you give the refs multiple chances to make those calls, not one of 30. Zutah's play makes me more mad at him because it was a hold and it didn't need to happen, Zutah needs to be a backup next year.

It's expected they'll get the benefit of officiating, they dont call this then they shouldn't of called the hold on Zutah. Ben chucks up a prayer to a kick returner and gets a gift PI on a non catchable pass to change the game but he gets the praise and Flacco is the one who just chucks it up hoping for PI

@rmcjacket23 I think this game is another good illustration of how terrible and misleading the traditional passer rating (qbr is awful too) is, icing on the cake is Ben getting a 103 rating, just irks me. I thought he was terrible last night and extremely fortunate we gifted him 7 easy passes to end the game. Because he doesn't have to pass to run like we did he benefits, all the emphasis is on YPA and CP.

Go easy on him, he's 12 he wasn't alive for that stuff

Another reason Passer Rating is a joke, Ben had a 103 today, I thought he looked terrible, we let him off the hook.

Well then me and you are on the same page, I really like Stanley, Young and Dixon so far, trying to focus on the positives.

And don't forget Waller and hell, granted it would of been amazing, but Perriman hauls in that catch wow. So many it hurts, and your 3rd bullet is a brutal form of irony, but obviously no guarantee we score there (though we probably do) if he did go down.

Literally every part of this, including the jabs friends give since we're both out of state fans at the present moment. Bengal fans can't say anything this year and I still want the sweep.

That's cruel man lol I had a bad feeling after the first half, seen too many Raven Steeler games, when you miss that many opportunities it's coming back to haunt you, it did.

Really sickening loss, so many missed opportunities Mili, story of the year I suppose. Trying to erase it from memory but I'm sure if Mosley didn't have a bad angle he could of stopped Brown. Do you see a new OC and/or DC here next season? We'll definitely need to supplement the loss of Smith Sr. I'm assuming likely through FA. I hope to see a lot of Perriman, Moore and Smith this Bengals game, I love Dixon.

Another bad drop followed by a good, clutch(ish) catch, you can't make this stuff up with this guy, but I'm still on board for the record.

Ironic isn't it? Now to check off 30TDs next season, that can't look ugly can it?? lol

You're right, 10 playoff wins and a super bowl .628 career win % vs 0-7 playoff record and barely above 500 at .528%, man Harbaugh sucks and definitely the same caliber as Lewis

Yea we need Trent Dilfer back didn't you hear? Lmao

Yea he did, Joe's first playoff win! Yea he has history from the old, classic AFC Central division, take the current AFCN and add at the time a great Jacksonville and Tennessee squad. Ravens - Titans 1999-2003 was what the Ravens - Steelers of today is like, Ray Lewis vs Eddie George, Jamal Lewis vs Bullock and Kearse, McNair, Derrick Mason on the other side. We blocked them from their SB run with ours, and a lot of bad blood was built between him and our organization.

Jeff Fisher over Harbaugh. Yea why not, let's get the guy whose never won anything and thinks it's 1957, at least we can get good draft picks every year. I'm not trying to be rude, you did say hear me out and I do agree QB development wasn't his strong suite, but nah, especially his hatred for the Ravens too.

Harbaugh def has to say, it's an easy barometer for who is rational and who isn't on here. Peas is a different story however, that one will be interesting, Same tried debate of execution vs methodology, but that last drive was WAY too easy and only the last play could really be blamed on execution, but also, literally 0 edge rush. Idk. I hate that the unanimous opinion is Joe sucks and Ben is god, the worst throws I saw today were from Ben, he was lucky Joe's WRs let him down. Btw, let's not forget Zutah's awful hold, I'm good with him as depth but not a starter.

I agree, that 4 game losing streak we had we were up 10-0 each game. I'm not drowning Pitt as the better team, we lost that game they didn't win it.
