I think we are going to drop this game against the bengals…

See what happens turning 42 does to you. Bree's beat Brady twice at age 41. Turned 42 and couldn't handle it.

Oh no, we may suck after December 2nd.

 

Rodgers will go as far as the O line allows. If the O line keeps improving, then Steelers may have a chance against the better NFL teams.

 

You just can never really know. The '79 Steelers were blown out by the 4-12 Bengals in Cinci.

 

On a personal note, I got a 330AM start tomorrow morning. Sure hope the game is in the bag by halftime.

 

Elliott met up with the team in Cincinnati and is expected to play tonight. No excuses. The Steelers need to take care of business.

 

I can name just as many OCs as HCs that are failing.
Hell fast example: Brian Callahan, lol, he didn't even make it through the year.

 

That sounds awful.. Hopefully you can enjoy the first half with Steelers dominating

 

Thanks op for screwing us.

 

So about that....

 

Well, it was kind of effortless on D, but wasn't a win. sadness...

 

This post deserves a bump for OP.

 

You were right, unfortunately. Got a good pulse on the team and Tomlin’s shortcomings.

only thing looks like you got wrong is that your post inferred that the offense couldn't move the ball but the defense did its part. Where it turns out we lost the opposite way…that i think no one could predict…

 

Had trap game written all over it but I’m surprised at how they lost it, scoring 31 points. The defence let the team down.

They have just cracked the door open for the Ravens who will firmly believe that they can come out of their bye and start running the table.

 

Yup, everything as expected. Terrible defense, mistakes, penalties, turnovers. I knew all of that was going to happen

 

Great call with your last sentence

 

Quite obviously,this defensive team can’t adjust to a changing offense. Tomlin alluded to it in his presser. They had replanned to play the other QB and had no answers to what the Bengals were doing with blocking schemes and Flacco.

it didn’t help that the O-line for the Bengals (as so frequently in these so-called trap games) played an absolute gem of a game with just 1 penalty called against them. This is something I’ve noticed a lot when they lose these games against “inferior” teams. All of a sudden they’re all-pros at every position and penalty free.
