Officicial Game Day Thread Pittburgh at New Orleans

I have never seen a fan base blame the refs for their losses more than this one. Why bother to watch if you think the officiating purposefully favors another team? Oh, and the Steelers actually have one of the biggest fan bases and the league always loves it when they’re winning and in the playoff mix. JuJu fumbled and everything changed - that sucks and that’s what’s freaking awesome about football. Browns win, Steelers win....far stranger things have happened.

 

I agree about the breaks. Hard to recall the ball bouncing our way much this year. Bad refs, bad bounces right into opponent’s hands, fumbles through the end zone. Tough to overcome that and weird in game coaching decisions.

 

Rigged might be a little strong but it was definitely steered in the direction of the Saints. It was probably the most one sided officiated game I can ever remember. Two bail out calls on 4 th down is directing a certain favorable outcome.

 

Lol you are a funny man. I've been watching football for 40+ years and yes the games are rigged. Any blind man can see this. Go do some research on this and you will think differently.

 

Hi

When the Steelers get calls to win games, doea that matter too.

 

We clearly outplayed the Cheats and the Saints the last 2 weeks...Stupid plays here and there...But a dangerous team nontheless

 

Well...what cost the season was a tie with the Browns and just pathetic losses to Denver, Oakland and San Diego. This game really shouldn’t have mattered to the extent it did, so here we are.

 

Maybe ,, I guess my point overall is this team isnt gona win another SB with Tomlin as HC..Ben told AB last year that he would get him to the SB...and i dont see that happening with Tomlin as coach ..

 

Lawrence Timmons was pretty good, that's about it, though.

 

Yeah! Damn that TJ Watt!

 

Here, here protecting the ball is Pop Warner. Pee wee type decipline.

 

I feel that Juju is gonna take this hard. But there were so many other things.
Sadly I think this was one of the best games Ben ever played and it’s chalked up a loss.

 

The PI occurred before the ball was tipped. Batch just confirmed thqt fact too.

 

That was just a terrible game. We had our chances all over the field. I will say the refs gave the Saints a lot of calls. This season is the almost season or should be titled the blown season. So much talent for so little success. That has to go on the coach. I think Big Ben has had a good year but just terrible plays at the wrong time. The Ravens are not a better team than us, but have played more error free football to come all the back and steal the division. You could see it coming the collapse. It’s just too much to ask for us to win two big games in a row. I know Juju’s a good player, but I don’t want to see his face for a couple of days.

 

You better get over to the History channel. Ancient Aliens is on.

 

There's is only so much he, Tuitt, Hayward and Haden can do. Most of the rest of the starters are jobbers.

 

I always think the NFL is a lil more rigged when it gets close to the Playoffs the NFL sure has been pushing the Ravens Chargers and Houston this year

 

Well Romo was a broke back Cowboy so that's believable!!!

 

Hey, now, Ancient Aliens is great!

 

100 percent agree

 

Who is this dumb ass i am listening to on 93.7 the fan

 

Definently gonna be a quite sad ride home, this will only make them better!!!

 

The media is already calling for Tomlin not to be fired ....lol

 

Error free is the key. Probably a less talented team that commits fewer errors would be much better than the Steelers. Problem is, how do you eliminate the errors? Ben is so good because he is a risk taker. Blitzing on defense is a risky approach. Have still change the entire style of the team, and that ain’t happening. Fumbles, interceptions, risky coaching calls, etc. have been killers this year.

 

Woodley was good for awhile
