    When I was at Pitt, I used to watch the fraternities play on the lawn of the Cathedral. This Steelers game was sloppier than that, and there was a large amount of beer consumed. Harris looked sober and played hard, and Boswell did his job well, that’s about all the good I can say.

    It was fitting that it ended in a tie, as neither team deserved to win.

    When I was at Central we use to watch them but they quickly chased us HS punks away.

    Back in 83-84 Detroit whipped our butt. I always thought that was the worse Steeler game I watched.

    The guys who chased you Central punks away, went to North.

    I was at that HS Championship in early 70's when Central played North at TRS. It was ugly and then they wanted to fight us in the stands.

    Definitely not the worst Steeler game I've seen, but it was bad for sure.

    Minus the injuries, misses by Rudolph, fumbles, missed tackles, and terrible special teams coverage, they weren't that bad, haha.

    I not sure it’s the worst I’ve ever watched. Watching Cowher lose to 3 expansion teams was certainly up there.

    I have some friends and family that I text back and forth with during the games. I said the same thing in a text. "This is the worst football game ever played."

    It may not have been the worst ever. But it damn sure was close.

    nope - hard to measure the WORST of the Annual Tomlin Turds. He has laid some stinkers, year after year after year. But ROONEY keeps the band all in play!!! Gotta love how bad we suck......

    No exaggeration, Bears and Lions game is the worst stretch of football I've ever seen in my life.

    If you factor in the importance of the game, the playoff loss to the Browns last year was worse IMO.

    There was a fog game against the Patriots where Curtis Martin just went off and there was nothing going right for Pittsburgh that was pretty bad but I think you are overlooking some of the Kent Graham, Jim Miller games which were just horrid. Under Tomlin I'd rank this game right beside one of Vick's 1st games for an injured Ben where the win was there if only Vick could hit a quick slant on a 3 step drop.

    I've seen worse performances in the past.

    But yesterday was one the worst performances in a crappy weather game I ever watched in person.

    Wish it would of just snowed, there is nothing fun watching a bad effort in the cold and rain.

    Plus the roads were awful as all get out going home... and people forget how to drive in bad road conditions.

    I didn't even watch the game and it was bad! The worst game for me was coming off 2008 Super Bowl year in 2009 playing a 1-11 Cleveland Browns Week 14 on a primetime Sunday night. They win the last 4 games they are in the playoffs. What do they do? They LOSE to the CLOWNS then win the last 3 and don't make the playoffs! I can literally remember how shocked and angry I was.

    The slop fest game at TRS where the turf was coming up in huge chunks on a cold and rain day. No one could do anything and I believe we won 3-0 at the end of the game to put it out of its misery. I think it may have been Miami? JMO>

    It was at Heinz Field, Three Rivers was artificial turf. It froze or got slick with ice. But very sloppy game though

    Usually there are times where Steelers are stinking up the joint, but I always feel they can eek out some points for a win.

    Today I had no hope in the offense whatsoever. They were getting nothing running with Najee. Our O-Line wasn't making holes for him whatsoever.

    Right down there with 6-0 loss to the Jets in 2003 and the 13-6 loss to the Browns in 2009.

    Not the worst. I have been a fan since 1975 so I have seen a lot of really bad games.
