I get the Brees comparison, but I don't think the Steelers D is quite as bad. Brees went to NO in 06, won a playoff game that year, won the SB in...
So the offense can't score and its the defense's fault. If Ben throws 0 INTs, there's a chance the Steelers win the game 13-10.
You do realize that Ben's INTs set up 10 of those points, right?
So the defensive performance, including Shazier's INT had no impact on the outcome. The Steelers still win that game if the defense doesn't play...
That's the point - the defense did what was expected today. The offense did not. That's why blaming the defense is also not realistic. They...
They don't win without Shazier's INT either or if the defense doesn't stop the Broncos after his INT. Are you claiming the D was great last week...
You realistically predict 16-0 every year? If so, I'd like to bet everything you own against you. The point is - and I'm assuming people were...
I could care less if they let Mallet throw for 700 yards so long as it doesn't result in points. The defense allowed 17 points (sans turnovers)....
Here's the thing about Ben and you really can't dispute it. He will be a HOF QB, but he was more successful early in his career than lately....
Did he play out of his mind in the first half last week? No.
Thank you. Agree 100%
But wasn't the standard for this offense 30 points (self-proclaimed). The defense didn't cost the Steelers today. They allowed 17 points...
Why would the Pats throw the game? 1. I don't believe Brady has ever lost to the Steelers in Foxboro. I think the Steelers beat Cassel there. 2....
I would have expected them to "with a chip on their shoulder" today knowing their playoff position depended on, they were beaten by the Ravens at...
Bingo. Those other guys all are going to be playing after next week (in games that actually matter).
I disagree. 90% of people figured they had some wiggle room because they were expecting the Jets to lose to the Pats. Had the Jets lost today,...
Maybe they should have run it more. Williams was the only effective offensive player. He didn't fumble. Ben threw 1 INT and another that he was...
I guess that INT and a terrible first half didn't matter. Why was the Bengal game a big game - it wasn't for a division title and the Steelers...
Next week doesn't matter unless they get help.
Feeling real bad about it is no consolation. I would hope he does. Unless he gets help, he will now miss the playoffs for the 3rd time in 4...
