    1. Ben was very efficient

    2. A very thin o-line was solid

    3. Chris wormley played the game of his life

    4. A couple missed holding calls, but overall, a cleanly officiated game

    5. Middle of the defense has to be better

    6. Pressley Harvin was wildly inconsistent, but still kicked the best punt in the league this season

    7. Outside of a pressure or 2, Alex Highsmith was far too quiet

    8. actually liked what I saw from Benny Snell

    9. Is this the beginning of the win one for Ben run

    10. Do I dare to believe we can make the postseason

    I'm pumped for Wormley, I know he can be that type of player week in week out for us....


    I don't know what to say about Harvin, how much slack does he get?

    BTW........ That was Devin Bush's assignment on the 2 PT attempt and Watt totally bailed him out

    That was a nice punt by Harvin, but overall his performance this season is still solidly below average. Probably bottom 25% for NFL punters...and he was a draft pick too. He needs to improve a lot next season to make spending the pick on him worth it.

    there’s got to be someone with a pulse willing to call the Steelers front office and say Ok I’ll do it. Give me the playbook, I’ll be your starting ILB . I’ll do it for the league minimum.

    I don't know, but both Bush and Edmunds were trailing in coverage, I thought to myself that wasn't going to end well. LOL!!!

    It looked to me like Edmunds had the WR running inside, and broke off of that coverage when LJ set to the throw to Andrews. Not sure though. I only saw the replay once.

    I saw Edmunds just jogging on third down plays rather than sprinting towards the ball carrier. You don't have to be a Polamalu, but at least make an effort. Bush was easily blocked out of position again. Do coach's even watch the film on Bush. There is no way that guy should be a starting anything in the nfl.

    That seems literally impossible for a MLB in our defence.

    I think the issue is who do you replace him with? A safety? ... it is pretty thin.

    i don’t think they had the angle much less confident they could’ve gotten him down

    What stands out to me about this game, other than the fact that we won, is that we almost lost despite Watt being a damn wrecking ball. Watt seemed to disrupt every single drop back. It's unfortunate we couldn't take advantage of the game he had. But I guess it just shows what we already know, we're just not that good. I don't know why I keep hoping for something different. We are a mediocre team and most of the team that is the performance we're going to get.

    I mostly agree. I don’t think the officiating was that clean tonight. Also, I thought HighSmith played pretty well. I was not excited to see Snell in the game buddy when he was needed late

    Harvin punted that ball so well, Boz said, “watch this sh@t”
